Thanks Teuton (with helping hands from Anil and Sam) for a really nice concept and one of the best run drafts ever.
Tempting to go for another pacer and play Barnes as the spinner, but I like Verity too much and he is a match winner in English conditions. Barnes was at his best on harder pitches so the two 'medium spinners' complement eachother.
A very watchable team even if I say so myself.

Williamson and Root at 6/7 just seems wrong. (Not that my team would be any better in this aspect once done.)

I'll pick Tom Hayward (4) to finish off my side.

Neil Harvey
Sachin Tendulkar
Greg Chappell (5)
Clive Lloyd (C)
Adam Gilchrist (Wk)
Curtly Ambrose (2)
Waqar Younis (3)
Neil Adcock (1)
Subhash Gupte (4)
Happy with the way the team has turned out...Good openers backed up by an awesome middle order that ends with Gilly's fire power.
Ambrose and Adcock to trouble the batsman with bounce off a good length and Waqar with his swing. Subhash Gupte to back up the pacers with his trickery.
Thanks to Teuton for organizing this wonderful draft which was real fun to be a part of.

It's a bit inhumane to expect keepers to focus all day behind the stumps and then face-up to the likes of Marshall or Lillee with the new ball at first drop.
I like the idea of Weekes coming in at 6 and thrashing a tired attack during the last session of the day Doug Walters style.
Tate was also a very good tailend batsman and probably better than Akram. A real bowling allrounder.
Nice team Teutonic that effectively bats to 9.
Teutonic XI
Herbert Sutcliffe
Herbie Taylor
Kane Williamson
Wally Hammond
Joe Root
Everton Weekes
Kumar Sangakkara +
Maurice Tate
Wasim Akram c
Anil Kumble

Bowling is probably not as good as some other teams but I suspect the batting makes up for it. Solid till #10.

Yeah I know what you mean. Partly it's the nature of the comp where Hammond is pretty much as good as any 5th bowler, and partly it was just that Sutcliffe and Weekes were too good to pass up so I had to ask Sanga to take the gloves.
