Constantine pretty high and a long-ish tail. I hope your prospective #8 pick can bat.

I had him at 7 and someone said switch lol. Cameron averaged 30 in tests and 37 in FC so maybe he should be 6.


And yeah I know the tail is long haha. It's likely 8 will also suck coz I need a spinner and I still want a decent number 5. At least my top 5 will be one of the strongest in this thing

Yeah Constantine and Cameron are both #7s at Test level. Kinda like the structure England had prior to Bairstow finding form: 6-8 were all #7s.

Cameron batted more at 6 though


edit - just checked and yeah 7 of his 10 test fifties were scored @ 6

definitely switching him for Constantine

“To me, Shane Warne is a great turner of the ball. I like his aggressive attitude, I love the way he attacks batsmen and I give him 100% for that as not enough spinners bowl with that approach, but in my estimation Subhash Gupte was a better leg-spinner.” - Sir Garry
