Test XI

1: Guptill
2: Watling
3: Broom
4: Taylor
5: Ryder
6: Williamson
7: Vettori
8: McCullum
9: Wagner
10: McClenaghan
11: Bond

The team I would love to see picked, Wagner has two more years before he's eligible so he'll probably never play with Bond. Wagner and Bond would open with McClenaghan being first change. It would be great to have three bowlers all bowling over 140K's. Ryder and Williamson would be New Zealand's 5th/part-time bowlers.

ODI XI:

1: Ryder
2: Guptill
3: Williamson
4: Taylor
5: Elliott
6: McCullum
7: Vettori
8: Franklin
9: Mills
10: Boult
11: Bond

I agree with Broom at 3 solid idea but having McClenaghan in the squad isn't a tremendous idea. He doesn't boast tremendous stats and is inexperienced despite being best "buddies" with Mark Richardson.
 
Watch yourself. You'll notice him pop up and defend his stats.

Quick change to my England ODI XI:

ODI XI:

Andrew Strauss *
Craig Kieswetter +
Kevin Pietersen
Jonathan Trott
Paul Collingwood
Eoin Morgan
Andrew Flintoff
Dimi Mascarenhas (OB 2)
Stuart Broad
Graeme Swann
James Anderson (OB 1)

Replaced Onions with Dimi, he would have to open the bowling though. He's wasted bowling 1st change.
 
England Test:

Andrew Strauss
Alastair Cook
Jonathan Trott
Kevin Pieterson
Paul Collingwood
Matt Prior
Graeme Swann
Stuart Broad
Steve Harmison
James Anderson
Graham Onions

England ODI:

Andrew Strauss
Joe Denly
Kevin Pieterson
Paul Collingwood
Eoin Morgan
Jonathan Trott
Matt Prior
Graeme Swann
Stuart Broad
James Anderson
Graham Onions

He's not really that good, he has a very poor record indeed but this is more a team I'd like to watch play, not who I'd actually want in the team. He did run through the England Lions a few times this year but.....
 
Home Country? The Country you go for? The Country you live in?

by the looks of your profile you support South Africa, Im not a West Indian but I support them so I made one for them. Not enough Serbs in cricket...


For those of you who saw the Trinidad & Tobago vs Somerset match and saw Dave Mohammeds performance I hope it explains why I really want this guy in the WI ODI and 20/20 team.
Now with Williams being the coach he might actually get selected.
 
South Africa T20

Graeme Smith
AB de Villiers
Ashwell Prince
JP Duminy
Jacques Kallis
Albie Morkel
Mark Boucher
Johan Botha
Dale Steyn
Makhaya Ntini
 
Next November iirc. If he has a good domestic season this year he might well be up for selection next year, he looks like a good player though.
 
Yea he will walk into the team, still think he has another full season to go first though.
 
India ODI:

1. Virender Sehwag
2. Sachin Tendulkar
3. Gautam Gambhir
4. Suresh Raina
5. Yuvraj Singh
6. Cheteswar Pujara
7. MS Dhoni * +
8. Harbhajan Singh
9. Zaheer Khan
10. Asish Nehra
11. Munaf Patel

12th man: Praveen Kumar

Munaf Patel's inclusion shouldn't be raising eyebrows. The guy has improved by heaps in the past couple of years, and however he might bowl, I'm confident that he will bowl better than at least Ishant and RP Sh!t.

Alos, I included Pujara because I think after performing so well in the domestic circuit this guy really deserves a call-up in the team. There's no need to go with any of the Pathan brothers, as Yuseless is truly useless when it comes to batting, and his brother is no good either.
