[AndrewB]

Double pick next for mr_mister, then Camo999, the The Battler's Prince.

 

[mr_mister]

Clem Hill - SA

Courtney Walsh - Jamaica

 

[Camo999]

Learie Constantine (Trinidad & Tobago).

Technically I believe he played for 'Trinidad' rather than 'Trinidad & Tobago' but according to the most reputable source I have (wiki) it appears to be a name change of the same cricket team following independence rather than an entirely new team.

 

[AndrewB]

For the purposes of this draft, playing for Trinidad before 1962 counts as playing for Trinidad & Tobago, and playing for British Guiana (or Demerara) before 1965 counts as playing for Guyana.

[The Battlers Prince]

Rohan Kanhai - Guyana

 

[Teuton]

Matthew Hayden (Queensland)

 

[fredfertang]

Queensland - Allan Border

 

[Teuton]

Border played his first few seasons for NSW

 

[Red]

Ted McDonald - Tasmania

With not that many Tasmanian test greats, my hope was the McDonald would slip a few rounds in this draft and I'd use him to finish my bowling attack off.

Should've known better seeing as you're in this draft!

 

[AndrewB]

Justin Langer (Western Australia)

 

[AndrewB]

Border played his first few seasons for NSW

Huh, I hadn't noticed that - thought about picking him (as a Queenslander) myself in the last round...

 

[Red]

Yeh, product of NSW (sadly).

 

[The Battlers Prince]

Lover of Queensland though

 

[fredfertang]

I'll switch Border for Tom Graveney if AB isn't allowed

 

[AndrewB]

honestbharani > Red Hill > bagapath

 

[honestbharani]

​Alan Knott (Tasmania)

 

[mr_mister]

sheesh had no idea all these international players had stints here

just looked up South Australia's FC representative wiki list and it seems what I thought was a clever pick with Clem Hill was actually premature and dumb

How do you work that one out?

Thought it a good pick myself, not that that necessarily means anything!
