Wasim ahead of Lindwall might be another good choice-- nightwatchman as well( Lindwall)

 

[ankitj]

Lot of very good teams. There is nothing to choose between about 5 teams in the draft.

Anyone who has not finished their team can pick right now.

Top side.

 

[trundler]

AndrewB's opening combination of Barry Richards and Sutcliffe is absolutely gun. Should've picked Herb up when Hutton was picked. More than happy with Dempster and Mitchell though. Would've been excellent foils for one another in theory.

CricZo XI

1. Victor Trumper /
2. Bill Ponsford /
3. Wally Hammond /
4. Denis Compton /
5. Douglas Jardine / (c)
6. Aubrey Faulkner / o
7. Quinton de Kock / +
8. Jack Gregory / o
9. Malcolm Marshall o /
10. Tom Richardson o
11. Joel Garner o

Pretty happy with my team.

Trumper and Ponsford makes a great opening pair followed by very solid middle order of Hammond, Compton, Jardine and Faulkner.

De Kock is arguably the best wicketkeeper batsman of recent times and can play a game changing cameo when needed.

Jack Gregory, Marshall can provide more than enough with bat and we all know how hard it will be to face this bowling attack,

Malcolm Marshall
Joel Garner
Tom Richardson
Jack Gregory
Aubrey Faulkner

Let's not forget who is going to lead this fantastic team, Jardine!!!!

 

[GoodAreasShane]

Just realised I lack a top class specialist opener, will pick Desmond Haynes then

 

[ankitj]

When do we start the poll?

 

[ankitj]

*Bump*

Voting thread? I don't mind creating it if that's fine with Marcuss.

 

[trundler]

I'm torn on who gets to share the new ball with Hadlee. Miller or Van Der Bijl?

 

[trundler]

Voting thread soon please or have we accepted Himmanv wins by default?

 

[mr_mister]

Voting thread soon please or have we accepted Himmanv wins by default?

Your t20 draft needs a poll to buddy

 

[trundler]

Your t20 draft needs a poll to buddy

Oh yeah, that. The teams were pending and I didn't see any interest so I let it go with a heavy heart. I'll bump it and make one.
