6. Shakib al Hasan
7. Mark Boucher
8. Mohammad Nabi
10. Lasith Malinga

I'll pull an Aislabie and add my associate from Afghanistan. Nabi and Shakib are a lovely 1-2 spin combination and they also provide batting.

I can't understand your guys logic here, Afghanistan barely played any official ODIs in this period.

Dwayne Bravo at six - not his best position, but not much of a far cry from his best position either. Picking him mainly for his bowling than his batting anyway.

[Aravind.]

Mohammad Yousuf, batting average of 43.
8300 ODI runs, 13 ODI ton's. Glad he is not taken so far.

@Aislabie

Marvan Atapattu wasn't a big hitter, but he was a heavy-scoring ODI batter: he has more centuries than anyone else I'm still allowed to pick, and played more innings from number three (a position I still need to fill) than anywhere else. He'll be our anchor-accumulator, and it'll be his job to bat through the innings and give the strike to those around him who are able to score more quickly.

1. Sachin Tendulkar
2. Chris Gayle
3. Marvan Atapattu
4. Darren Lehmann
9. Shane Bond
10. Makhaya Ntini
11. Hamid Hassan

@ddrap14

Invalid since it is already taken by @pillowprocter

 

[pillowprocter]

For a second I thought my Sehwag was invalid, it would've messed up my entire plan.

Apologies for the confusion.

@pillowprocter picked Sehwag first. All other picks are invalid.

 

[Na Maloom Afraad]

1. @pillowprocter - Virender Shewag

Whoops

I'll veto it to Stephen Fleming then.

Solid EA Cricket 07 vibes

I don't think Baz is taken, and while I'm not here to pretend he's Adam Gilchrist, he's certainly the next guy down. Probably doesn't keep in this team.

You are done mate, see you in Karachi!

Whoops

I'll veto it to Stephen Fleming then.
