If people have missed a pick thru the draft and need to make it, do it now. I'll post round 12's order later this morning at work. I don't think I'll be doing actual work today,
Too bad so sad - time to move on I think.
Barnes in this match revealed himself once more as one of the most remarkable bowlers that this country has ever produced. He has a positively wonderful command of the leg break.... His great height makes it difficult for the batsman to follow the flight of the ball. He is useful on every kind of wicket, whereas few bowlers of his pace are able to bowl on a sticky wicket. - JACK HOBBS, 'My Cricket Memories' (1924)
I vote for my team.
Let me count the votes....
...and the winner is BeeGee's team!
I'm so awesome.

Happy with the variety of the bowling attack (And the team bats down to No.9):
Hadlee - RF
Garner - RF
Fazal - RMF
Strang - LBG
Reid - RMF/OB
Macartney - SLA
Hammond - RMF
Would have liked Barry Richards and Majid to take on the new ball bowlers as there would be few sights more entertaining on the first morning of a Test match. But while Majid batted farely regularly at 3 & 4, Hanif only occasionally batted down the order.
No major regrets although I would have liked to have scored England or South Africa in R11 so I could pick Knott or Waite. Benaud would have looked nice at No.8 as well, but Strang brings just enough to the team with his allround skills and great fielding at coverpoint.

Very happy with my team. My top six all average over 50. Some interesting positional averages, too. Clarke averages 64 batting at 5 and Barrington averages 77 from 40 innings batting at 3!! ATG opening pair and a dream bowling attack.
Andy has an allround strong team, BeeGee has a lethal bowling attack, and Howe has awesome batting. I can tell that the voting is going to be close.
I suggest that we keep this thing moving. It's been more than 24 hours so Morgieb's turn to have a go.
