Slightly Wacky Draft

Line and Length

Cricketer Of The Year
A Wacky Draft but nothing too wacky about my team.

1. Jack Hobbs / (5410 runs @ 56.95)
2. Graeme Smith / capt. (9265 runs @ 48.26)
3. Viv Richards /o (8540 runs @ 50.24)
4. Sachin Tendulkar /o (15921 runs @ 53.79)
5. Frank Worrell /o (3860 runs @ 49.49)
6. Ian Botham /o (5200 runs @ 33.55; 383 wickets @ 28.4)
7. Mark Boucher / wkp (5515 runs @ 30.30)
8. Andy Roberts o (202 wickets @ 25.6)
9. John Snow o (202 wickets @ 26.6)
10. Waqar Younis o (373 wickets @ 23.5)
11. Derek Underwood o (297 wickets @ 25.8)

A top order with undeniable ATG inclusions, a 'keeper with 5 Test centuries to his name, a 4 man pace attack and a clever spinner - all proven wicket takers at the highest level. For variety, Worrell, Tendulkar and Richards add to the bowling with plenty of Test wickets to their names.

JOJOXI

International Vice-Captain
Conrad Hunte with a 1950's debut so is ineligible as it was dictated for a 1960s debut - apologies if my table specifying 1960s player rather than debutant confused things. - @SillyCowCorner1

One of those drafts when everyone is going to have an amazing team but enjoy the balance with the batting and obviously the bowling is quite good.
