Is it an OD game or FC? and do you want a bowling order?

Southern Conference: Southampton V London @ Rose Bowl

MN: “Hello! Welcome to the Rose Bowl, for the first game of the English Test Premier League here in Southampton, time for a look at the teams:”

Southampton
Chris Broad

Graham Thorpe
Zaheer Abbas
Inzamam Ul-Haq
Kapil Dev ©
Jack Russell (wk)
Shaun Pollock
Muttiah Muralitharan
Fred Trueman
Gladstone Small

London
Barry Richards

David Gower
Kevin Pietersen
Andy Flower © (wk)
Andrew Flintoff
Richard Hadlee
Alec Bedser
Joel Garner
Jim Laker

MN: “Some interesting decisions there and I’m joined out here by the captains. Kapil, no place for your kin-pin batsmen Ken Barrington who has a Test average of 58.”
KD: “Well, we felt very strongly that we wanted the grit of Thorpe at 3 and the expansive nature of Inzy at 5. So there was one place at 4 and being the first game we wanted a more aggressive intent that Zaheer provides.”
MN: “Also, Russell instead of Taylor, a difficult decision?”
KD: “Well, they’re both very good wicketkeepers and it was a very difficult selection headache but Jack has won on this occasion.”
MN: “Andy, no space for Robin Smith or Graeme Hick?”
AF: “Well we have a wonderful array of riches in our squad and 4 players are always going to miss out and on this occasion its Hick, Judgy, Daffy and Snowy.”

MN: “We’re no ready for the toss.”
AF: “I’ll have Tails”
MN: “It’s a Head.”
KD: “We’ll have a bat Mark.”
