[Na Maloom Afraad]

Well, 7 of these 11 players will most likely not be a part of my first xi, so why not give them a go in the warm-ups? All of the seven players resting this round will be in my first preference line-up.

Brendon McCullum
Stephan Fleming*
Martin Crowe
Kane Williamson
Martin Donnelly
Ian Smith+
Richard Hadlee^
Chris Cairns^
Jack Cowie^
Danny Morrison^
Dipak Patel^​

 

[Na Maloom Afraad]

Btw, any details on the pitch types?

 

[Aislabie]

Everton Weekes
Frank Worrell (SPIN)
George Headley
Brian Lara
Viv Richards
Garry Sobers (SPIN)
Clyde Walcott
Malcolm Marshall
Andy Roberts
Michael Holding
Curtly Ambrose

Let's give this team a whirl on a green seamer in Dubin. *evil megalomaniacal laughter*

Also, I know it's annoying to change, but can I re-name my captain as Frank Worrell, please?
