20/20 Hype

[archie mac]

I have not watched any of the 20/20 WC (is that the correct name), but I would still like to have some sort of interest

So lets pick a team that were never given the chance of playing the 20/20 format, but which would be very hard to defeat if given the opportunity

I will start with Gilbert Jessop as one of the openers

 

[Athlai]

Hadlee and Lance Cairns from NZ.

True, but do you think he would have still been the greatest batsman in this form of the game?

Once good, always good.

Only two spots left After we fill them, it will be interesting to see if others can select a team to beat them
