You've got a fantastic pace attack there for sure. Bishop, Walsh and Akram is a trio to match pretty much any other.
![tick :tick: :tick:](/forums/styles/planetcricket/xenforo/smilies/tick.png)
Having Atapattu and Ponting in your top three is a good effort considering the constraints of the draft.
![cross :x: :x:](/forums/styles/planetcricket/xenforo/smilies/cross.png)
There's no way around it - if Atapattu or Ponting fails then your batting might as well be made of prawn crackers. You've gone all-in on bowlers to create a low-scoring game for both sides
![tick :tick: :tick:](/forums/styles/planetcricket/xenforo/smilies/tick.png)
Both WG and Kallis in the top three is pretty elite stuff.
![tick :tick: :tick:](/forums/styles/planetcricket/xenforo/smilies/tick.png)
A couple of express quicks, a genuine all-rounder and a world-class wicket-keeper go together to make a very well-balanced side.
![cross :x: :x:](/forums/styles/planetcricket/xenforo/smilies/cross.png)
I only selected one player who wasn't proven at Test level, which meant I overlooked guys like Meuleman and Law.
- Jimmy Cook (cost 17)
- Andy Lloyd (cost 0)
- Alec Stewart (cost 39)
- Brian Lara (cost 52)
- Viv Richards (cost 50) - CAPTAIN
- Stuart Law (cost 0)
- Learie Constantine (cost 19)
- Richard Blakey (cost 1) - WICKETKEEPER
- George Lohmann (cost 8)
- Sydney Barnes (cost 8)
- Wayne Daniel (cost 6)
![tick :tick: :tick:](/forums/styles/planetcricket/xenforo/smilies/tick.png)
Well there's the batting - you have a middle-order of Stewart, Lara, Richards and Law. This wasn't something you were meant to be able to do.
![tick :tick: :tick:](/forums/styles/planetcricket/xenforo/smilies/tick.png)
In Lohmann and Barnes you have two bowlers who are generally considered to be GOAT contenders.
![cross :x: :x:](/forums/styles/planetcricket/xenforo/smilies/cross.png)
You do slightly lack modern-style bowlers - either an outright spinner or a genuinely world-class fast bowler (sorry, I personally don't rate Daniel especially highly even though his stats do agree more with you than me).

Your bowling attack is excellent: there can't ever have been a better pace quartet than Procter, Donald, McGrath and Younis. Who do you even give the new ball to?
![tick :tick: :tick:](/forums/styles/planetcricket/xenforo/smilies/tick.png)
Picks like Meuleman and Rob Bailey gave you the budget to pick some excellent Australian batsmen.
![cross :x: :x:](/forums/styles/planetcricket/xenforo/smilies/cross.png)
Your top four is pretty unproven; there's no way of knowing that Neil Harvey wouldn't regularly come to the crease to try to fix a score of 20 for three.

You've got arguably the greatest swing bowler and the greatest spin bowler of all time in your side.
![tick :tick: :tick:](/forums/styles/planetcricket/xenforo/smilies/tick.png)
Kirsten and Ramprakash are excellent selections in the search for players who were better than their Test averages.
![cross :x: :x:](/forums/styles/planetcricket/xenforo/smilies/cross.png)
You don't really have a star batsman in your team. There's nobody who you'd point to as a guaranteed source of runs.
