123/5
Basically, I suck. I can win the odd game but I keep getting hammered, despite picking the better NZ players. Came 7th in the WC and got monstored by Sri Lanka in tests and ODIs, not making above 170 in the ODIs and not taking more than three wickets.
My team usually involves (not in order):
Fleming
How
Broom
Ryder
Oram
Sinclair (wk)
Bond
Mills
Vettori
Patel
Shaw (who has now been banished)
Martin
Styris
Franklin
Fulton
plus a few others. Tried using Sewell and Shaw as suggested but they're awful. Gillespie had a promisng start but has gone to poos. The only reliable batsmen I have for tests are Fleming and Sinclair. Broom and Fleming for ODIs. Problem is Broom lost all form in SL and Fleming is now injured for the Bangladesh series.
I'm playing the 2006 game. So, who is reliable? I'm going to pick a team and stick with it for ten tests come hell or high water. My main problems are Bond has no form (which I'm working on), no reliable third seamer, Vettori and Patel are either brilliant or crap, and a misfiring batting order. Seeing as I can't reach through the screen and punch my team in the face after SL I thought I better come here and get some ideas.
