assuming Anderson and Roberts are in soon, should Larwood make it right after Roberts?

No

 

[Thala_0710]

But he probably might

 

[Johan]

No

Why not? Barry made it

 

[Thala_0710]

Why not? Barry made it

Larwood will make it ofc, it's about whether he'll make the next one

 

[Johan]

TBH, there's no difference between Barry and Harold

Can't agree

Larwood looks significantly cooler and better.

The next one should be Anderson, Roberts, Dev and Procter. I am particularly shocked Procter received 0 votes till now.

Yeah that's what I'm expecting

Wonder where Benaud will be. I hope it's one of the next 3-4 teams.

 

[Johan]

Though what I meant was

Barry Richards

• Short Test Career due to unfortunate reasons.
• Immense FC Career
• Amazing to watch
• Terrified the best of the bowlers
• Immense peer reputation
• Has Kyear2 as a huge fan.

Harold Larwood

• Short Test Career due to unfortunate reasons.
• Immense FC career.
• Amazing to watch.
• Terrified the best of the Batsmen.
• Immense peer reputation.
• Has Fuller Pilch as a huge fan.

After that I'd probably go for guys like Adcock, Bedser and Hazlewood

Bedser, Larwood and Statham for me.... Hey that's the England A attack!

Larwood made it ahead of Willis? Interesting..

 

[capt_Luffy]

Yeah that's what I'm expecting

Wonder who the keeper should be, as I am not too keen on Dev or Procter batting at 6. Healy isn't likely for that reason, Waite a solid choice as usual but not sure he is a 6 either. Pant or Flower ofc would be awesome but it might be hard for them.

He has Larwood over Bedser, Bedser over Statham, Statham over Snow and Snow over Willis.

I mean, duh. He and Bedser were almost automatic choices. And like, you were right there....

 

[Thala_0710]

Unreal disrespect to Willis

Like I remember...
Btw where do you guys rate Tate then compared to Larwood?
