Ashish Bagai will be my associate pick! He was a good batter + wicket keeper! He quit his job at the bank to play cricket! LEGEND!

He's not the most fashionable pick, but :eng: :bat: Owais Shah is one of the few English batters in this period who could bat in the top six and also score fairly quickly. Plus he had an unusual technique that was just quite fun to watch.

No shortage of Aussie quicks that could fill out my team - Mitch Johnson and Michael Kasprowicz are stiff to miss out - but I'll go with the obviousest choise, Jason Gillespie.
