Chris Martin last played an ODI about four years ago!
It's a bit of fun, plus the fact he hasn't played for four years furthers the case for his selection

Vettori is a good bowler, unfortunate the ppl can't see that.


I would say,


Ganga
Taufeeq Umar
Nell
Marshall
Irani
Jones(wk)_
Ajit Agarkar
Sami VC
Shabbir Ahmad C
Danish Kaneria
Gul.
As a member of the AAAS you have been struck off our good list.

Danish Kaneria is also unlucky not to plat more ODIs for Pakistan.

The teams are supposed to be composed of fairly regular players, which rules out Amla.
That didnt stop you picking Browne though, who I highly doubt will ever play another test.

And if your whole top 6 isnt better than Dwayne Smith Ill eat my hat.

Whether he plays another Test or not is merely guesswork, the point is he's still been a fairly regular player of late.

I'm more shocked at Clarke, and especially Vettori

Wiseman is the only one I have trouble with in that list.

People rate Giles and Vettori on the same level...well I'd rate Wiseman about the same as Giles (maybe not batting, though Wiseman is no bunny).

*waits for backlash*

Edit: Actually he's worse than Giles. Geeze embarrassing :D But I wouldn't say hes the worst spinner at the moment...

Lay off Ian Bell! He did hit two 50s on a turner against Warne and McGrath a couple of months back, you know. He's not all pairs. :p

Well Hayden hit a century, but he still sucks.

There's no chance me laying off of Bell when:

1) He's rubbish
2) He looks like a gremlin or something
3) He's playing ahead of Collingwood
4) marc's overprotective of him

Whatever it takes!!!
I should have fitted in Lokurahettige or whatever that guy's name is in there. He opened the bowling and batted at 3 for Sri Lanka in a final. I cannot imagine a worse player who could have had such a big vote of confidence in a big match. (yeah, I know India don't win finals, but still, it WAS a big match.)

One was the scratchiest 50 this side of your local DJ, and the other was during the innings throughout the Ashes where the least pressure was on the batsmen. I think to use those two innings to defend him is a little generous.

I still think he could be a player, mind you, but his performances in the Ashes are not what I'd be using to defend him.
