Australia and Pakistan are the best to start with, but after a while England and subcontinent teams become the best.

Gazzard isn't bad either.
No, he's worse than bad!

Seriously, I've never seen him do anything at all worth bothering with.

As for England, wait a few years and you'll kick bottom.

In the game I mean.

He played 30 tests for me at an average of around 29, which is better then Jones and Foster do.

don't keep with trescothick(choose a specialist) and solanki and flintoff won't do you much good in tests - infact solanki is complete junk in ICC(just like real life i suppose)

nash was the best batsman out of the original keepers i found, gazzard would be second for me

I've always used Crawley or Kenway as keeper until something better comes along.

Pick M Powell to open. M Bulbeck, G Hamilton, M Hoggard, Gilo and R Anderson as your bowlers, your middle order Bell, Pietersen, Thorpe.

i play club cricket with him in new zealand, he's the leading run-scorer for our team(we are leading the competition), he hasn't got much wickets though

That's horribly substandard. There are better 'keepers in England.

who are they? that's about what nash averaged for me too and alex stewart doesn't do much even though he's only normally around for one season

Derek Kenway for one. Simon Guy also maintains a 35 or thereabout average for me. Jonathan Batty is about a 30+.

Nah, I've found Gazzard more than useful.
