Great bowling line up and I tried to get attacking batsmen, by 1992 standards anyway. Lots of Pakistanis too, led by Imran.

McDermott 1

Some big names in the batting and went for #utility as my bowling strategy even though I'm not particularly fond of it. Not sure if this team is any good since I was 10 years off being born in 92.

Phil Tufnell to add to my thoroughly medicore bowling, reasonably happy with the quality and depth of the batting.

Do you just take random stabs in the dark? Symcox debuted internationally in '93

Don't really recall making that a rule. I'd say Symcox needs to be replaced if he didn't feature at the 1992 CWC, regardless of what wiki says.

1) GR Marsh RHB
2) PN Kirsten RHB, OB
3) GA Hick RHB, OB
4) MD Crowe* RHB, RM
5) SR Waugh RHB, RM
6) Hasan Tillakaratne+ LHB
7) DA Reeve RHB, RM
8) DR Pringle RHB, RM
9) RK Illingworth RHB, SLA
10) CEL Ambrose LHB, RF
11) W Watson RHB, RFM

Reasonably chuffed considering I fell asleep for 3 rounds. Batting down to 9, 8 genuine bowling options and a keeper who was good enough to play as a specialist bat later on.

The rules seemed to be "as for the 2019 World Cup draft", and the rule for that was "the only criteria is that eligible players must feature in one of the ten squads competing in the current CWC" (my emphasis).

I remember posting a link to wiki in the OP for the 2019 draft but it was only supposed to be a resource. It was never a rule that Wikipedia was to decide who's available and who isn't

Righto lads, looking to wrap this up soon. Just need GoodAreasShane to finish off his team before we get the voting thread cracking.
