I just picked favourites and underdogs and it's still a good team. Happy with that. I missed a few faves but oh well I was never going to get my hands on some of my favourite Saffers anyway.

Dempster and Flower are the star batsmen in a pretty sturdy top 6, followed by a hard-hitting tail.
But the strong suit of this side is clearly the pace bowling, which is like a South African version of the WIPQs of the 80s, backed up by one of the great googly bowlers.
