    Inspired by Cribb. Got me thinking about who the GB FC team would be in the RL England side.

    1. JP Goodfellow - Tresco. Devastating for country. http://www.cricsim.com/site/match.php?id=1120

    2. JE McGrath - Alistair Cook. A solid pick, yet prone to silly mistakes. http://www.cricsim.com/site/match.php?id=1108 yet can do http://www.cricsim.com/site/match.php?id=1120

    3. JRE Luffman - Hybrid betweem Pietersen, England's best bat and Strauss, solid at the top. http://www.cricsim.com/site/match.php?id=1225

    4. BL Hornby - The bravado of Pietersen,yet the competence of Bopara :p http://www.cricsim.com/site/match.php?id=1120

    5. ND Short - Ian Bell / Jonathan Trott

    6. SLO Graham - Matt Prior, Good witht he bat, shite with the gloves. :p

    7. C Laing - Likes to think of himself as a Flintoff who can bat, batting 7, but more akin to Stuart Broad.

    8. S Smith - Ashley Giles. Picked because there's no-one else

    9. AP Farnsworth - Craig White

    10. JT Whicker - Jimmy Anderson. Great bowler, always there when you need him.

    11. BOY Blunder - Steve Harmison. Terribly inconsistent, good with the new ball... average witht the old. http://www.cricsim.com/site/match.php?id=1159

    12. M Deane - Jamie Dalrymple. Cribb to confirm :p

    Discuss. Dispute. This isn't entirely serious.

    Haha, did Marcuss send you the one I did before? :p

    Short is definitely Trott.
     
  3. BoyBlunder BOY Blunder

    No he didnt lol. Interesting to see yours.

    I was thinking Dafter Trott. One really good season. Trotts played a fair bit longer though.

    I did your one day team to Marcuss on MSN a few hours back.

    1. Seeks = Knight (specialist OD opener who looks to bat through the innings)
    2. Hornby = Pietersen (gun bat, but questions over true loyalties)
    3. Luffman = Thorpe (gunnest actual English bat in recent times, better in FC cricket but still classy in OD cricket)
    4. Short = Trott (definitely not English or even top class, but better than the alternatives)
    5. Deane = Dalrymple (batting allrounder who can't convert starts, bowls off spin pies)
    6. Laing = Wright (big hitter and semi-decent bowler, can surprise against good opposition despite looking dire)
    7. Graham = Prior (wicket keeper who should only be playing FC cricket, but here he is in OD cricket!)
    8. Smith = Swann (off spinner, handy bat) - Giles does fit much better though
    9. Farnsworth = White (bowling allrounder who can't translate his batting at the top level)
    10. Whicker = Caddick (Australasian opening bowler, inconsistent but deadly on his day)
    11. Blunder = Saj (people rate him because he's quick, but he leaks runs and can't land it on the cup strip regularly in one day cricket)

    Nah Short is Bell. Only scores when everyone else does.

  6. McGrath JE McGrath

    I am more Michael Vaughn ;) if he was still in the team. Can bat anywhere from 1 -4.
     
  7. Luffers JRE Luffman

    Not that good TBH :p
     
  8. BoyBlunder BOY Blunder

    Ye thats pretty good. FC > OD though.


    That stings. Definately more of a Harmison.
     
  9. Baxter MJ Deane

    Dunno, it fits kinda. He's dire at OD stuff :p
     
  10. BoyBlunder BOY Blunder

  11. Luffers JRE Luffman

    Nah, Vaughan seemed to alwyas convert a 70 to a big score. McGrath doesn't.

    Blunder to set it out more clearly.
     
  12. BoyBlunder BOY Blunder

    More of a Cook. Good but not brilliant.
     
  13. BoyBlunder BOY Blunder

  14. Baxter MJ Deane

    Nah, Short was the only man to ton up for the Lions in the first innings, definitely not Bell.
     
  15. Luffers JRE Luffman

    Pfft, once...ever! :ninja:
     
  16. BoyBlunder BOY Blunder

    Yeh true. He had a damn good game though lol. Bell did really well against weak opposition though so that explains it :p
     
  17. Baxter MJ Deane

  18. McGrath JE McGrath

    I dont mind. Ali Cook has a big future so thats good :).
