M Goodwin (Tests). RTD (ODIs)

Feel sorry for RTD, he gets a chance to play in an all time side and has to play with retards like Carins, Oram and Jones. Atleast he has Murali. Deadset if anyone can't put together a better side then my no hopers. You should just neck yourself imo.

I nearly went for Goodwin over Houghton, pretty marginal call either way.

Houghton overall a better players, as we probably didn't see him at his best in Tests. But Goodwin one of my favorite players so that why i waited till now to pick him. Figured everyone would go Flower, Streak and Hasan.

Haha - just as well I didn't leave the third of my three South Africans for the next round then. :) Was initially disappointed to miss Donald in my ODI team but with Kallis, Pollock and Klusener thats a more than handy trio of allrounders IMO, whilst Steyn and Donald should combine nicely in the test side.
