Hopefully no one minds but I think it's time for some efficiencies, ironically via a long winded post.

Since bagapath has Boonie on his books, I can jump in with my R10 pick:

I think that they don't have to be test players so I will pick Franklyn Stephenson who made his first class debut for Tasmania in 81/82 (I have double checked that).

And since my list shows 8 Trinidadians have been picked I am pretty sure I can make my R11 pick of Darren Bravo.

So my final team is:
Bill Lawry (c) VIC
Matthew Hayden QLD
George Headley JAM
Clyde Walcott BAR
Andy Flower + SA
Darren Bravo T&T
Franklyn Stephenson TAS
Alan Davidson NSW
Curtly Ambrose LWI
Colin Croft GUY
Stuart MacGill WA

I'll also finish my team if I may, as I'm the last to pick for both Barbados and NSW

Conrad Hunte and Steve Waugh. Could have either Waugh twin, Border or possibly even Smith, all who would nicely fit into my middle order and most who could captain the side but S Waugh offers the most as a 5th bowler.



Conrad Hunte for Barbados. Is team the dominant force in WI FC cricket? They must be as I'm still finding several legends are still available


Conrad Hunte
Roy Fredericks
Ricky Ponting
Clem Hill
Steve Waugh * (5)
Larry Gomes
Ian Healy +
Andy Roberts (1)
Tony Lock (4)
Bill Johnston (3)
Courtney Walsh (2)


Combined test tons from my top 7: 109 (avg 15.5 each)
Combined test wickets from my 5 bowlers : 1147 (avg 229.5 each)

One of my favourite stats is that Barbados has given West Indies around 80 Test players from a population about half that of Cornwall, which has given England two

Excellent mix of different varieties of bowlers and batsmen and some ATGs and very very good players from different eras which means the side will hold their own in pretty much all conditions against any opposition.

Hahahaha... You spoke like a vacuum cleaner salesman!

It is a pretty mediocre batting line up, dear Bharani. Stollmeyer was an opener (and they still haven't punished his killers which tortures my soul). So move him up, and Katich can bat at 3. Still, I can back your bowling line up, but your batting can fold in tough conditions. My two cents, which no one asked for....
