Didn't read the rules on this but seems to be a great leveller - very difficult to select three teams as being better than the others, and just as tough to then take one of those three as the best but if pushed I'd give it to the Larry David Invitational XI

Weird. All sides have major flaws.

Think zinzan is the strongest though, doesn't have the stars but no real liabilities/players out of positions. Agent TBY's bowling could be an issue but his batting looks great and Broad and Botham is something at least, so I'll go him for #2. Harsh I guess gets my final vote for similar reasons.

Shame that Harsh didn't get a better left-arm orthodox, but it's still a handy side.

Zinzan, kingkallis and stphndbsn for me.

Although I was tempted to vote for the one which had Amir at no. 6 :laugh:
 

Noble One

International Vice-Captain
I nearly voted for anil1405 until I realized he had Harry Trott as a wicketkeeper.

Nearly every team (including mine) has some serious imbalances.

Oh whoops I thought Trott was an actual keeper. Most of these old-time cricketers had some secret talent or two.
