Using my Rob Key selection to pick Mahadevan Sathasivam, one of Sri Lanks's best ever batsmen

Described as “the greatest batsman ever on earth” by Gary Sobers, Sathasivam played before Sri Lanka was granted Test match status, in 1982. He made his Ceylon (then Sri Lanka) debut in 1945 and became the captain three years later. He also went on to lead Singapore and Malaysia. Despite being international matches, unfortunately, none of these had Test status.

He played a total of 11 matches, scoring 753 runs with three hundreds and as many fifties, but his batting prowess is still remembered due to the praises that he received with Frank Worrell also calling him the “best batsman he had ever seen.”

3. Mahadevan Sathasivam
4. Aubrey Faulkner
5. John Morris
7. Chamika Karunaratne
8. Iqbal Siddiqui
9. Usman Khan Shinwari
10. Tabish Khan
11. Pud Thurlow

I've missed out on the other Apartheid eligible players who don't use the Rob Key bonus. So time to get Jimmy Cook. @Supreme General

[Aislabie]

Clive Rice, the South African great never played test cricket due to their ban in international cricket.

I'm afraid @Aravind. you're a little late for Rice

 

[Aravind.]

I'm afraid @Aravind. you're a little late for Rice

Axar Patel please.

55 test wickets in 14 test matches @19.34 average.
2475 FC runs @36.39 and 4 test fifties already in 14 test matches @35.88, more than handy with bat.

Ajay Sharma (1 cap)

38 first-class centuries with an average of 67.46 and 87 first-class wickets at 31.01 that make him more than serviceable as a second spinner after Shadab: Sharma's skills fit perfectly into my team and his single cap fits perfectly into my budget.

1. WG Grace (22 caps)
4/5. Ajay Sharma (1 cap)
6. Shadab Khan
7. Percy Twentyman-Jones
8. Rajagopalan Shyamsunder
9. Dave Gilbert
10. Charles Coventry
11. Asma Farzand

27 caps remaining

@Paranoid Kendroid next
