team I'd pay the most to watch XI...
« on: November 20, 2013, 09:28:22 PM »
while we are waiting for the cricket to start I thought it would be fun to think of an xi you would pay the most to watch...

here is my first stab

Barry Richards
Verindar Sehwag
IVA Richards
R.T. Ponting
K.P. Pietersen
A.B. De Villiars (wkt)
A. Flintoff
S.K.Warne Afridi
W. Akram
M. Marshall
Jeff Thompson

now this may not be the greatest imaginary team to have played, but who cares, this is all about a team to watch.
format is up to the selector and an in the bar afterwards XI is allowed!

I'd pay most to be at the WACA in 1992 (I think) when Curtly took 7–1.

Seems like a bit of a drastic measure to get the test off, but nobody can question your dedication to seeing your team get beaten!  ;)
