In reply to Sam. At least you could feel confident of racking up a decent total against that attack.

In reply to Bail-out. You can’t have a team of eleven Matthew Haydens.

In reply to Ged Ladd. Personally I'd rather the Aussies were picked based on how invested Poms are in their failure. The ones you (or His Maj) would be most gleeful to see fail, would feel happy-but-not-happy at hearing they'd tripped over a ball or broken a thumb in the nets, or if they didn't fail, at least were glad to see the back of when their innings or bowling spell ended. The ones ingrained in English imagination as the most archnemesissy Ashes rivals. Even just the ones who annoyed more when they did well. I have the sinking feeling that this would be disturbingly strong Aussie team, mind.

Not exactly a surprise.

It’s going to be quite a good team, KC.

Is it to play some manner of Aussie-invested XI, gathered by Dan Liebke (your ridiculous sparring partner from the last Ashes series) or Jrod or someone? That’d be great.

Will there be a Sim series match using this team?

In reply to JB. Disappointed no place for Ian Austin. Big battle for the comedy number 11 slot. Tuffers, Monty, Giddins, Mullally, Malcolm, Hoggard?
