Very happy with the side and a variety of bowling options and bowlers who can bat all the way down. Some very successful and proven coaches in there to do all the captaincy and strategising too.
Hope whichever batter is facing this team can negotiate the short ball

Light batting-wise, but on the whole decent.

Pretty happy with this side, would've loved to have gotten Simpson to add a 2nd spin option but Viv Richards can roll his arm over for us. Bevan has a test bowling average of 24.24 too so maybe can winkle out some wickets with his left-arm wrist spin. If I knew I was going to get Dev I might've gone Steyn over Davidson but provides us a genuinely world-class left arm seam option. Also bats very deep with Davidson at 9!

Thanks everyone for getting involved and drafting great teams. I can't say for sure but it felt like there were more 'middle of the night' picks for where i think people live, which i reckons says how engrossing the draft was.

The voting thread is up. Good luck to all - there are going to be some tough calls and great teams missing out.

I am keen for whatever draft someone else wants to run - now is the time to start a new one. Don't be shy with your ideas.
