MCC XI vs ROW XI

[WubbaLubbaDubDub]

So the teams are out the match is on 5th July whom are you supporting? MCC or ROW XI?

I had no idea KP was playing in this match. Do you know if these teams were picked by both Warne & Tendulkar personally?

 

[WubbaLubbaDubDub]

I guess one was picked by MCC Chairman and one was picked by Shaun Pollock

They had better telecast this live :|

 

[WubbaLubbaDubDub]

Yes its going to be telecasted on Skysports.

Hopefully they telecast it here too. Btw on paper, team Sachin looks far more dominant (assuming the match being an unlimited overs contest).

I'd imagine they would simply because #Sachin .

It's a 50 over match.

It's a 50 over match.

Too bad. They could have well added a 5-day game but #TeamShane doesn't really look like a test side. What's the criteria for selection? Swap Finch and Collingwood and we have Test XI v ODI XI. #CaptainObvious

I do not know why but I am really excited for this. ICC should arrange more of these kind of matches. No T20's though. One ODI and one Test and we would have awesome time.

Wish the teams had Ponting Kumble Murali Hussey Kallis kind of players and not Sehwag Yuvraj Finch Read Best kind of players. We already see them

 

[vaibhavtewatia]

Same here. Infact there used to be a lot more not so many years ago. Like Asia v/s ROW / Africa. And who can forget when Australia dominated the ROW in both the ODI as well as Test series. #GoodOldDays .

Such a shame that these fixtures have to be cut out only to accommodate players who are busy all year round participating in different T20 leagues.

@rahulkhush,
Who's 'best' in the squad ? Is he Tino best ?

 

[AbhishekS]

Yes, it's Tino Best.

----------

BTW one of my school-mates living at Southampton managed to get the tickets for this game.

 

[lion100lion]

Yes, it's Tino Best.

Can't understand the selection of Tino Best. I saw him playing in the farewell series of Sachin Tendulkar and his performances were not up to the mark.
But why is he chosen ahead of all fast bowlers ?

Tino Best's current ODI ranking is 71. Can't understand his selection at all...
