Conditional XIs

Mr. Glass
pick a team for imaginary scenarios

preferably at least 10 players from the modern era after odis and crap came into play

i'll start

playing a test in a normally deteriorating indian pitch and chasing a target on day 5 in that track that is turning a bit but not too much

aka, not a pitch where any border, clarke or harbhajan can take 5.

99% of Earth's population has been killed in a nuclear war and it's post-apocalypse. Before the survivors kill each other for food, one last cricket game will be played.

Condition: Out of the playing book. You can only play with unusual batting stance/bowling actions.

Bordering on the ATG thread as well. Have gone with only people I have seen playing. The tail in this team is quite poor though.

Akram is a strange one. Plenty of questions over his character and I've always thought he comes across as an arrogant cheating ****. Imrans the better bloke

Too bad hes a ****ing politician ayyy can't trust em, can't trust em ****. They're all ****ed in the head mate. He probably has ****in dirty mong out orgies with all the inntelgensia and the freemasons, doing their slip-slop happy days handshakes in the rooftop bars sipping down some merlot. It's all munted, that's all I know. But they don't know that we know, but I know that they know that I know. But you don't know that, but now you know. So now they don't know that you know that I know the truth that you now know. It's ****ed, it's all ****ed mate. They're all in with one another. ****ing sly mofos all of them.

Gabriel and Rabada worth a mention too. Also Sylvester Clarke for throwing a brick into the crowd.

Is Panesar a jerk? I'd be inclined to swap him for Brett Lee.

Mr. Glass
Lee is okay for an aussie

harmless apart from his staredowns and a great guy from whatever we have seen from him off the field

Lee doesn't seem like a wanker at all tbh

Sure he is a Tony Abbott fan, but supporting a **** doesn't make you a **** yourself

He did try murdering that Piers Morgan guy once.

More to the point, that music video he made with Asha Bhosle is pretty unforgivable.
