For my first pick I will go for the experience again and fill my 20% Band with a legendary fast bowler
Dennis Lillee will bolster my bowling attack with 103 ODI wickets in 63 matches at an average of 20.8, he was a beast of his era. But still did not play enough to cut the first band.
Second Pick to balance out we're back with the inexperienced ones and I'll look to fill my 60% Band with one of the most hard hitting players of today's era
Tristan Stubbs averages 35 in ODIs in 9 innings but he also averages 44 in List A batting in the middle-order, and he strikes at 90 and is a known hard-hitter who has a pretty damn high ceiling for the future.

Coming in at 7 for me will be a left-armer and big hitter who was born 30 years too soon to make bank on the T20 circuit. His batting was good enough to biff a Test century and maintain a first-class average of 30, and his bowling was good enough to define an entire World Cup. It was terribly unfortunate that his body couldn't stand up to the rigours of Test and first-class cricket, and that misfortune only continued for his remaining 34 years.
