One itsy thing to fix is that Oram should be added as an All-Rounder.

 

[nightprowler10]

I thought I had. Thanks.

 

[ZexyZahid]

It seems that Faisal Iqbal has replaced Inzamam-ul-Haq. But I think we have to wait till the news is on cricinfo.

Iqbal in ODIs might be mistake.

 

[nightprowler10]

Well looks like its almost official that Faisal Iqbal will replace Inzamam in the CT. I'll go ahead and add him in now.

 

[ZexyZahid]

I've got already five Pakistani players in my mind, so that will mean six positions will need to be divided among the other countries. Good to see Vincent back for New Zealand.

 

[nightprowler10]

Sri Lanka squad has now been added.

Interesting that you included Shoaib Malik in your team. He wasn't that great in England, but maybe because then he came back from injury. I will have to think hard about my team for this group. Especially since Sri Lanka is in form.

For me the toughest choice is the wicket keeper as all 4 of them are good on there day. But Sangakarra bats up in the order that his plus point. Boucher can be destructive.

 

[ZexyZahid]

That's why I included Sangakkara. But Boucher is getting the form in the way when he was my favourite batsman.

Your team is packed with sub-continent players but not a single NZ player. Why ?

 

[irottev]

I am tempted to take Bond off, but he will probably still bowl at some point. So I'll keep him for now.

 

[aussie1st]

Does any one know if Hafeez will open, or even play for Pakistan? I can't figure out who they will open the way they have been putting their teams.
