Khota Posted June 9, 2019 Posted June 9, 2019 Op starts with a Pakistani player, ends with a pakistani player and has one in the middle. Op only has two Indians there and expects us to take him seriously. Sometime me thinks op is a big troll.

Batting average of 40+ and a bowling average of 29+ with a very decent WPI ratio of more than 1 wicket per innings. As is Cronje (38+/34+). Jayasuriya Gilchrist Viv Chappell Cronje Symonds Klusener Kapil Pollock Hadlee Akram The only thing it lacks is a truly great spinner. SRT Lara Ponting Kohli ABDV Bevan Knott Warne Starc Garner McGrath The 5th bowling options are obviously meh but I'd still back the specialists to have the edge ever so slightly. You may want to look at Jacques Kallis in your all rounder team. In some ways he ways Tendulkar plus Zaheer khan

Less than Tendulakr certainly but I think average is right up there and then to top it up with bowling like Zaheer.

P.S: ABDV is good enough to keep for a one-off game, so I'd replace knott (the keeper I assume) with a bowler like Murali (who has a great WC record) Jimmy Cliff 1

putrevus Posted June 10, 2019 Posted June 10, 2019 No Majid Khan in either team ???? How can Sachin Tendulkar play in place of one and only Majid Khan.Majid Khan could be in both teams as he was handy offspiner too.
