Your countries best XI - minus Test, ODI and T20 players.

[NZTailender]

Australia
1. R Broad
2. N Jewell
3. M Klinger
4. D Thornely
5. G Bailey
6. D Marsh*
7. M Wade+
8. D Wright
9. S Magoffin
10. C McKay
11. P Rofe

 

[NUFAN]

Damian Wright is a good shout, overlooked him as he's currently injured. Thornley, your right would be unlucky to be overlooked. I get the feeling that Dan Marsh is on the decline now, so I left him out.

Paul Rofe I don't agree with at all, he's not played for ages!

 

[Noble One]

Australia

R Broad
M Dighton
M Klinger
G Bailey
L Carseldine
L Butterworth
C Hartley
D Christian
S Magoffin
J Holland
C McKay

Not a bad team, I was tempted to have Travis Birt as 6 rather than Butterworth. But with Magoffin listed at 9, I believe the batting has enough depth to cover.

 

[Johnners]

1.Nick Jewell
2.Ryan Broad
3.Michael Klinger
4.George Bailey (c)
5.Lee Carseldine
6.Dominic Thornley
7.Matthew Wade+
8.Steve Magoffin
9.Clint McKay
10.Gerard Denton
11.Paul Rofe

EDIT: Was a toss-up between Rofe and Swan for the final spot.

 

[Migara]

I'd limit it to test era. Otherwise Sathasivam and FC de Saram also will come in to the picture.

Ian Daniels
Sajith Fernando
Kaushal Silva (wk)
Indika de Saram (played 1 T20, but not batted)
Dinesh Chandimal
BMAJ Mendis
Nimesh Perera
Sachithra Senanayake
Shanuka Dissanayake
Wendell Labrooy
Suranga Lakmal

 

[morgieb]

Ryan Broad
Michael Dighton
Michael Klinger
George Bailey
Dominic Thornley
Lee Carsdeline
Chris Hartley
Steve Magoffin
Clint McKay
Jon Holland
Burt ****ley

Long tail FTL.

 

[stephen]

I'd be tempted to give young Walter a run.

 

[NUFAN]

Man Ryan Broad must have been going pretty good back in 2009, nearly everyone had him.

With 3 formats, injuries, a change of selection panel and some inconsistent form in a few key areas the field is actually quite small at the moment for Australia.

I think our Test XI would be something like..

1. Liam Davis
2. Michael Klinger (c)
3. Alex Doolan
4. Joe Burns
5. Peter Handscomb
6. Peter Nevill
7. Chris Hartley+
8. Ben Cutting
9. Nathan Coulter-Nile
10. Jon Holland
11. Jackson Bird

12. Luke Butterworth

I know Holland is injured currently and I expect Butterworth > Cutting in other peoples XI and I had him at first, but I still rate Cutting. If Holland isn't allowed (but he is, since it's my thread) Boyce is next in line. I've picked 3 keepers, Handscomb a bit of a bolter.

 

[Flem274*]

Test

Bradley Watling
Peter Ingram
Brad Patton
Anaru Kitchen
Robert Nicol
Kane Williamson
Reece Young
Bradley Scott
Tarun Nethula
Lance Shaw
Trent Boult

7/11 have at least one cap. Not many stuck though. Still, not terrible.

Can't have played for NZ in any form yeah?

Hamish Rutherford
Josh Brodie
Carl Cachopa (7)
Colin Munro (6)
Corey Anderson (5)
Jimmy Neesham (4)
Derek de Boorder (c) (wk)
Bruce Martin (5)
Ben Wheeler (1)
Matt Henry (2)
Mitchell McClenaghan (3)

Allrounders, allrounders everywhere!

 

[Daemon]

Wow this is tough, so many random fringe players have played at least a couple of limited overs games.

 

[Spikey]

Theo Doropolous!

 

[BoyBrumby]

An England test side could look something like:

Jimmy Adams
Michael Carberry
James Taylor
Mark Pettini *
John Bairstow
Robin Martin-Jenkins
Jonathan Batty +
Chris Woakes
James Tredwell
Mark Davies
Steve Finn

That was difficult. Virtually every player in the country appears to have played an ODI at some point! Keepers especially. I was assuming I could use Pothas, but I didn't realise he's played ODIs for SA.

Six international debuts amongst her XI since f_o_s's post in 2009 and of them only Woakes hasn't played in tests subsequently.

& RMJ & Batty have both given it away, which leaves Adams, Pettini & Davies on the outers.

 

[Daemon]

1. Unmukt Chand
2. Suryakumar Yadav
3. Amol Muzumdar*
4. Manish Pandey
5. Mandeep Singh
6. Rajat Bhatia
7. Uday Kaul +
8. Rishi Dhawan
9. Bhuvneshwar Kumar
10. Sandeep Sharma
11. Harmeet Singh

12. Dheeraj Jadhav

 

[Chook Herron]

Klinger
Henry
Doolan
Burns
Head
Nevill
Faulkner
Butterworth
Cutting
Holland
Bird

 

[smash84]

who cares about non international players

 

[NUFAN]

Klinger
Henry
Doolan
Burns
Head
Nevill
Faulkner
Butterworth
Cutting
Holland
Bird

If I was aiming to get most correct in a few years time I would pick a team more similar team to this. Players I didn't include Henry, Faulkner, Head have good upside,

Maddinson, McDermott and Lynn could be options too in one of the formats, not necessarily Tests.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Trying one with my limited knowledge on domestic;

1. Anamul Haque*
2. Soumya Sarkar
3. Mominul Haque
4. Asif Ahmed
5. Shubhagoto Hom
6. Shabbir Ahmed
7. Nurul Islam Sohan+
8. Shohag Gazi (2 Test Caps)
9. Abul Hasan (1 Test Cap)
10. Taskin Ahmed
11. Kamrul Islam

 

[Bahnz]

Brodie
Rutherford
Carl Cachopa
Munro
Michael Bracewell
Wells
de Boorder
Martin
Milne
Wheeler
Henry

Really hard to come up with the top 6. So many succesful domestic batsmen have been trialed for 1 or 2 games and then dropped over the last few years.

Milne can't be picked because he's played for NZ.

He cheated anyway, Faulkner has played T20s.
