Steve Waugh to captain the side
 
Gary Cosier, the Pollard kinda guy, who can also swing the ball, born in wrong era. Striked at 92.77 in the 70's with average of 30 and bowling average of 17.17. He had not big success in Test cricket which limited his chances in limited overs format.

Pitches for venues

:aus: Adelaide Oval, Adelaide, South Australia, Australia
- :ar::up:
:aus: Brisbane Cricket Ground, Woolloongabba, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia- : :ar::up:
:aus: WACA Ground, Perth, Western Australia, Australia/Optus Stadium, Burswood, Perth, Western Australia, Australia - :ar::left:/:bwl::down:
:aus: Sydney Cricket Ground, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia - :left::right:
:aus: Melbourne Cricket Ground (The MCG), Melbourne, Victoria, Australia - :ar::up:

:bwl::down: Damp/Sticky - Massively in favor of bowlers and an absolute nightmare to bat on, unless you're Victor Trumper.
:left::right: Dusty - Plenty of turn on offer for spinners and a good place to bat for spin-savvy batsmen. Good pace bowlers are still likely to thrive.
:ar::up: Evenly balanced - Provides an evenly balanced contest for all disciplines.
:bat::left: Flat - A batsman-friendly pitch which provides little or no assistance to bowlers. Expect big totals.
:bwl::up: Green - A lot of movement on offer early on, which makes it ideal for bowlers capable of swinging the ball. Batting expected to become easier as the match progresses.
:ar::left: Hard - Ideal conditions for batting. Good deal of bounce on offer for fast bowlers as well. Could go either way
:right::left: Dry/Slow - Ideal for slow and spin bowlers as the name suggests. Sometimes quite difficult to bat on.
:down::down: Poor - Uneven bounce and a huge amount of turn on offer for spinners. Expect a slow hard grind where most batsmen rarely score at above 2 an over.

Ahmedleo414's XI started off well enough with the likes of Justin Langer and Phil Hughes quite easily countering the thunderbolts unleashed by Jeff Thomson. Perhaps that might have led them to believe they could deal with anything thrown at them, but they couldn't deal with the wily Simon O'Donnell whom they gifted four wickets with some awful shot selection. It all went downwards following Damien Martyn's dismissal by Adam Zampa in the 24th over, after which they lost 6 for 35 to get bundled out for 173.

Shane Watson set the tone in the very first over of the innings by carting Damien Fleming for 11, and his quickfire cameo at the top oversimplified things for Perfect Square's XI a great deal. Ben McDermott and skipper Allan Border scored unbeaten half-centuries to guide their side to victory with nearly 20 overs to spare. Shane Warne, greatest of the Aussie match-winners won't be making it to the main draw.
