Lara and Ambi bat left and bowl right
They have done each skill that way in Test match history

Therefore they cannot be opposite sides

You shall herewith be fined for fielding ineligible players

Alvin Kallicharran MUST be on the left handers team

 
Commie 2015-08-26 13:11:25 

Bruce Reid was superior to Zaheer Khan. Only injuries derailed that guy.

Notice the part that says "players who play their special roles" ?

Ambi is a specialist bat ?

Lara is a specislist bowler ?

In reply to Commie

What about the rest ?


I liked Bruce Reid, career cut short way too early

 
Commie 2015-08-26 13:36:29 

In reply to LBW375

Rest looks good. Well done.

Mitchell Johnson is a great pick, and based on his stats, especially strike rate and econ would edge out Zaheer

But, if we play the match in England....

TriniD "mis-spoke". TriniD meant Tendy got bowled by left handed bowlers.

Those are a couple of very impressive teams you picked there - and I can find very little fault with them.

I actually never played this match up before.

WRT Hobbs - We are just going by stats as we've seen very little of him.

I would play either Vass or M. Johnson ahead of Zaheer.

Watch out for a fella named Trent Boult.

Early in his career but his figures are already quite good.

 
tc1 2015-08-27 23:49:38

TheTrail 2015-08-28 10:42:16
