    There is no way Golding should be in that side. No disrespect to the kid, but he has come to nothing. Straight up. He didn't bowl much at all this season, and he isn't a great bat. Play a specialist spinner and a quick bowling allrounder. Maybe Faithful, unless we think MF is playing for Norths...

    Yeah this.

    I have 48 wickets in ALC @ 31.90 while Zohaib has 49 @ 31.76. So not much of a difference.

    After that since Chewie and Das can bowl ,a specialist spinner might not be required.

    I have learned to bowl in the last 5 rounds or so.

    @11- I should obviously get the ball ahead of Chewie.

    Zohaib to come in for Teja, and that's sorted.

    He bats 3 in the BS and the PC and you bat fucking 7, it's obvious who should be batting higher here.

    EDIT: Meant to quote Goat.

    I agree

    It is obvious

    So obvious in fact I need not confirm who deserves to be batting higher by naming the particular player, because we both know who it is

    Some sense being made with MF actually in this team now, I really think we can afford to play a specialist spinner, if we have one good enough. Really though we should be playing three specialist bowlers, either a spinner or a pace bowler. A strong bowling unit is essential.

    Reckon MF will probably make the proper North side. Britain's bowlers have been dire this season and Ged's a big fan. The North attack will probably be Funkotron, Farnsworth, Faithful, King and Deane.

    That means you're looking at either %MS Winney or %KG Rogers in this team batting 8. I think trying to manufacture frontline bowlers out of ALC batting allrounders would be a mistake here.

    Ikram needs to be the specialist spinner surely?

  17. Number 11 CJ Downes

    Narang is equal to Zohaib in bowling and can bat. At least by stats that's the case.
