To just post a no-holds-barred eleven would be no fun.
No Bradman.Asked an Xi from my dad and he came up with:
12th:
That's why 'cause I asked him to tell me the players he had watched live sir.No Bradman.
(This applies to all Bradman-less elevens.)
No need to call me Sir!

Yes, many batsmen could take his place in my XI.
No point in picking him as i have never watched him playing cricket live ..No Bradman.
