Looks decent.But,cant really see the team winning too many matches.If you wanted to save a game,this will come in handy.
The bowling department is good,no doubt about that.
 
almost all teams have steyn, lee and murali...
Because Steyn and Lee are without a doubt, the best pace bowlers in the world, in addition to the massive desire to have two bowlers of 145kph pace (although Steyn's pace has deserted him somewhat since his return to international cricket), opening the bowling. Muttiah Muralitharan, although in a decline, is still the world's best spinner and one of the all time great spinners which makes him an automatic pick for most teams.
 
I think Kumble > Mulari at the moment. Mulari has really lost it off late...

stats say otherwise, Murlis average is almost 10 points better and his strike rate is ten points better and despite bowling less balls Murali still has more wickets over the last 12 months.
 
Murali is the best spinner in tests... but he is not that great in ODIs and T20s...
 
Kumble has hardly played.After Melbourne they played in Perth and Adelaide.
Then India played S.A at home with Kumble not being 100% fit.
 
He has done so much with the bat,that we Fantasy Staff had to include him in our list of all-rounders. :D
 
1) Alastair Cook (C)
2) Nasir Jamshed
3) Shaun Marsh
4) Luke Pomersbach
5) Manoj Tiwary
6) Rohit Sharma
7) Andy Hodd (WK)
8) Ajantha Mendis
9) Tim Southee
10) Dale Steyn
11) Ishant Sharma

Now THAT is a team and a half :D A few players were unlucky to miss out though, such as Adil Rashid, Luke Wright, James Harris, Heino Kuhn, Shaun Tait, and a few others I imagine. What you think ? Team of the future ?
