I am well for those who asked. Home for a short while from hospital where I have been treated for my mental health issues. I was not in touch with reality in the way I should have been but now am much better.

Hard doing this without being able to double check hence I got myself a sheep.

Mucked this up quite a bit, 4 openers and a number 3, but only 2 bowlers, LOL

I am very happy with my bowling attack. GOAT swing bowler, GOAT channel bowler, a leggie who took 6 poles per game and invented the flipper AND a bloke who can bowl 90 miles an hour very well. So pace, bounce, swing and spin in copious amounts. Pretty great 5th bowler too.

Yeah, that's a quality bowling unit trundler. I am curious to see which player misses out on your XI, if you are successfully with your final two picks.

Red Hill CC XI

Bob Simpson
Vijay Merchant
Ricky Ponting
Ian Chappell
Al Sahariar

Lee Germon +
Hugh Tayfield
Malcolm Marshall
Jackson Bird
Jimmy Anderson

Unsure who to bat at 3 between Ponting and Chappeli. Chappeli absolutely loved number 3 but I think he's also better suited to 4 than Ponting.

Looks less out of place than Al Sahariar, whoever he is!
