Harold Larwood. You need atleast one guy for flat dead wickets, with express pace.
Herbert Sutcliffe. Sutcliffe opening with Hobbs, Hutton at 3, Root at 6 is the way.

Hutton was already voted in as the opener though.

So a Sutcliffe at 6?

To clear things up, Order shuffle is allowed. It has happened before quite a few times, as order can't always be planned exactly beforehand. The best example is probs, Kirsten made SA A as an Opener, but was moved to 3 when Goddard made it as well.
