lots of bowling options without compromising too much on batting. If I knew I was gonna be able to get Hammond I probably wouldn't have had 2 all-rounders at 6-7 but at you can't plan for stuff like that. I think it's a well balanced side and I'm happy enough!

Not a bad team. Nice bowling variation. Relatively strong batting, strength at the top.

Was very optimistic on my part to suppose one of Smith, Hammond or Sangakkara would slip through
