Chennai for ground. Home ground of one of my favorite side Tamil Nadu. Should be road for Tests and allow us to play for draw. Though Murali might snag a couple wins. Small ground in ODIs allowing our openers and lower middle order to create havoc.

2-2-6

SCG would be 4-4-5

Matt

Also do I have a volunteer to run the sims? Which should we run first Tests or ODI's? I'm happy to draw up a fixture list.

I never really care about grounds. Since I was England, I'll take Eden Gardens. Seem to recall both Laxman doing well there.

No idea what it would be in terms of stats.
 
NUFAN

NUFAN

Y no Afghanistan flag
Queens Sports Club, Bulawayo, Zimbabwe.

I also need to work out what the ratings mean exactly.

I'll go a 2 for spin.
9 for pace
and if the other one is swing I'll make it a 2 also.

Just let me know if I've done it wrong.

I think it goes

assists fast bowling- assists medium pace bowling - assists spinners

0 meaning no assistance, and 10 meaning an absolute mine field. Tharmi to confirm all ratings so just go for whatever and we'll correct it if you are too far off.
