No one's yet declared interest for the '96 world beaters Sri Lanka or the strong combo team ROTW which consists of Zimbabwe, Bangladesh plus the associates that have taken part in the CWC.

^Gimme Rest of the world.

Should we have a couple of weak teams like Zimbabwe or Bangladesh? Or even Kenya! They have all had records of creating upsets in past atleast in one match in the WCups.

Rest of the World (ROTW) is the answer to that. It consists of Zimbabwe, Bangladesh and all the other associates that have taken part in the WC over the years. They'll be one hell of a side if managed properly.

I have changed my mind , I want ROTW now.

That was interesting concept of ROTW. Am sure, this is going to be interesting. Am going to start working behind the scenes right away to join hands with all the teams managers with having a global goal - 'Lets not allow ROTW to reach finals, we will fight but when it comes Vs ROTW, we will unite!' hehe, good luck.

Looking forward to it. Yeah, I was about to take 1996 SL squad if my sign up for India didn't go through.

New Zealand for me

Since both Mr Nokkaya and you have declared interest for the Blackcaps, there's two ways to settle this. Either you both can co-manage with each other peacefully or you can PM me a number between 0-100. The one closest to the number I generate will get New Zealand.

In that case, you too may enter this little competition for NZ.

I wil have the mighty 1979 squad. I guess it was the best one WI managed to put together.

Have not seen 1979 in play though on papers they are the strongest!

However from the WI side that I have seen in play, I believe 1996 WCup squad was stronger with Richardson, Chanderpaul, Ambrose, Walsh and Lara. Still remember the excitement that I had while watching Aus vs WI, semis. Team that deserved to play SL was WI really, however Aussies just had glimpse of luck there to enter the finals. 20 years might have passed, but I still believe that WI could have won the WCup if they had faced SL or India in finals.
