    M di Venuto
    Yashpal Singh
    R Ponting
    M Clarke (6/7)
    JA Morkel (5)
    Yuvraj Singh (6/7)
    M Wade
    J Faulkner (4)
    J Pattinson (3)
    J Anderson (2)
    M Ntini (1)

    Morkel to be used as a proper 5th option as needed. Clarke/Yuvraj only if we actually need spin. Declare when sensible, bat with tail as sensible.

    This is happening? Holy ****, I never thought I'd see the day.

    Selection was actually rather difficult, all my players are equally mediocre. Wanted to give Dockrell a game, but Botha performed in the trial.

    1. Alastair Cook *
    2. Sam Robson
    3. Nick Compton [7]
    4. Darren Bravo
    5. Faf du Plessis [5]
    6. Peter Nevill +
    7. Ben Stokes [6]
    8. Johan Botha [4]
    9. Neil Wagner [3]
    10. Nathan Rimmington [2]
    11. Trent Boult [1]


    General Instructions:
    • Bowl Faf as a legitimate fifth option, but only chuck Stokes on as a partnership breaker or for a handful of overs. Compton if absolutely nothing is looking like working.
    • Bunny Boult.
