[BackFootPunch]

Ken Barrington

 

[ankitj]

****. I wanted Barrington

 

[Red]

Ken Barrington

Had to decide between him and May. Decided that May was the better player to watch, which influenced my choice. Watching the left handed Lara and the right handed May build a partnership would be a hell of a sight.

 

[morgieb]

1. Vijay Merchant
2.
3. Hashim Amla
4. Dudley Nourse
5. Gary Sobers
6.
7. John Waite (50 Tests, 2405 runs)

[watson]

Some big punches being thrown during this round!

For your team Ankitj, I think that Trevor Goddard was an inspired choice.

 

[ankitj]

Thanks. It was also a set up to grab Barrington in next round. Sigh!

 

[kyear2]

My projected choices just disappeared quickly.

 

[ohnoitsyou]

weighed up Barrington for ages, but decided i couldn't afford him. Hindsight is a wonderful thing

 

[Spikey]

had no idea kenny was still around

 

[watson]

My projected choices just disappeared quickly.

Don't worry kyear. You'll get your double pick in just 12 hours time.

 

[kyear2]

Nah, still in excellent shape.
