:saf: :bat: Jonty Rhodes

Since the job of the 12th man would usually be fielding for my team, it makes sense to pick one of the best fielders ever in existence to be that. Jonty was a stone wall at the backward point region, stopping nearly every ball that came his way, also causing some amazing runouts in the process. He was pretty at the number 5 position with the bat, and could come at number 5 for my team, if I change my mind afterwards.

:ind: :ar: Harbhajan Singh

Before there was KulCha, before there was Ashwin-Jadeja, there was the Turbanator. The man who could make batsman dance to his tunes, and could take matters into his own hands when it mattered the most. Add to that, he could sometimes, smash even the best of the bowlers out of the park, with his amazing hitting skills.
While he lost his zing in the later parts of his career, he still remained a potent force in the IPL, sending out economical overs in the powerplay, with batters finding him hard to hit.

3. :pak: :bat: Zaheer Abbas
4. :wi: :bat: Clive Llyod
5.:aus: :ar: Keith Miller :slvo:

7. :saf: :ar: Lance Klusener

9. :aus: :bwl: Mitchell Starc
10. :ind: :bwl: Zaheer Khan
11. :pak: :bwl: Abdul Qadir

Happy with the team I end up with. This team has an attacking mindset and big stage performer reputation.
Starting with aggresive duo of Dhawan and Stirling, both on thier day can set stage on fire and capable of forming valuable the parternships.
In Zaheer Abbas and Clive Llyod you have agruably greates middle order batsmen who were playing different ball game in thier era altogether.
The first stylish, elegant batsman and the latter at his best was a flamboyant destroyer of bowling. His heavy bat, powerful shoulders
and full swing of the arms could turn the course of any game.
And what to say about Miller, able to turn a match with an attacking innings or a fiery spell of bowling.
Then there is Two of the best finishers of the game in MSD and Klusener.
for Klusener, a tag that is often unfairly detached from him for the one time he missed among several bull’s-eye hits.
It is not every time they will success in finishing the games, but make no mistake the chances of them failing at it is rare,
and both possess the seconday skill and are par in them too.
In bowling department have two left arm pace bowler can destroyed the oppositions and are master of thier craft evident from
thier world cup performances.
Cricket has Abdul Qadir to thank for keeping wrist-spin alive through the darkest years of the late 1970s and '80s.
Blessed with a fast bowler's temperament and fire, he surrounded his craft with mystique.
Nabi is a traditional offspiner who despite not having many variation is very accurate and relevant to modern game.
Is in the team for his bowling, and No. 8 is seems to be very low for his kind of batsmen but that provide the depth in batting.

The choice for captain was difficult as there is two very capable geniuses and Man-Manager available, I have gone with MS due to my
first choice and team built around him.

Bad luck. No issues. Time to rediscover.

I kinda want a batsman who can bowl to finish off my team. And with my pace heavy team, having a second spinner may be handy. So I considered Paul Collingwood, but eventually settled on Carl Hooper
1. :wi: :bat: Gordon Greenidge
2. :wi: :wk: Shai Hope
3. :eng: :bat: Ian Bell
4. :pak: :bat: Javed Miandad
5. :wi: :ar: Carl Hooper
6. :ned: :ar: Ryan ten Doeschate :redo:
7. :eng: :ar: Gilbert Jessop :slvo:
8. :saf: :ar: Shaun Pollock
9. :aus: :bwl: Brett Lee

So my second missed pick is Mark Chapman.
He should be counted as an associated pick for his time with Hong Kong. He is one hell of a fielder and he is also a good batting choice at no.5 (he got 50+ average in list A cricket). Currently I am picking him as 12th man but I can play him at 5th position anytime which gives the team much flexibility.

Lineup so far
1) :aus: :bat: David Warner
2) :sri: :ar: Tillakaratne Dilshan
3) :aus: :bat: Gregg Chappell
4) :zim: :wkb: Andy Flower :redo:
5)
6) :aus: :bat: Michael Bevan
7) :ind: :ar: Kapil Dev
8) :ind: :bwl: Ajit Agarkar
9) :eng: :bwl: Hedley Verity:slvo:
10) :wi: :bwl: Tony Gray
11) :saf: :bwl: Allan Donald
12) :nzf: :ar: Mark Chapman:redo:
