First Class Debutant




MOHINDER "JIMMY" AMARNATH


Viv Richards:- “I have not seen anyone play the Windies pace quartet with the mastery Amarnath demonstrated.”

Michael Holding:- “What separated Jimmy from the others was his great ability to withstand pain. A fast bowler knows when a batsman is in pain. But Jimmy would stand up and continue.”

Perhaps the most obvious candidate for a draft like this still hasn't been picked. Not sure how this will affect my team's dressing room chemistry, but I'll take Geoff Boycott anyway.

Skipperless XI

1 David Warner
2 Geoff Boycott
3 Robin Smith
4 Colin Bland
5 Clyde Walcott +
6
7 Clive Rice
8 Mike Procter
9 Curtly Ambrose
10 Sylvester Clarke
11 Erapalli Prasanna

He captained England for 4 matches.

Oh well, I'll just choose Herschelle Gibbs instead. Gibbs would probably be a better opening partner for Warner anyway.

Nice pick. The openers pool for this draft is a bit slim. I was counting on my luck to get one of Redpath or Amiss, thankfully got one of them.
