Was considering selecting Gayle for this round so that rules out that option...

Hashan Tillakaratne for my Test team. With the big Sri Lankan names all gone, it was a toss up between him and Ranatunga. Still need a West Indian and a New Zealander, though as far as I can tell everyone else has picked their New Zealanders so obviously I'll leave my Kiwi selection until round 11.

His strike rate might be lower than most top order batsmen, but I'm going with Rahul Dravid for my ODI team - with Klusener, Afridi and Pollock down the order, I think a solid base needs to be established before we blast away at the death, and Kallis/Dravid should provide that. Still need an English player and a Bangladeshi/Zimbabwean/minnow player.
