Team of the Year
by Basil Wed Dec 24, 2014 11:26 am
This is the Grauniad's version:
Warner
Amla
Sangakkara
Smith
Younus Khan
Matthews
De Villiers
Johnson
Herath
Steyn
Anderson
Personally, any side without Jack Shantry in it isn't worth the steam off Bob Willis' piss.
Warner
Amla
Sangakkara
Smith

Not one of them keeps wickets in tests. Would've had Sarfraz Ahmed there.
Less niggling is only one specialist opener... Vijay being the only other one worthy. Pretty sound team

Perhaps they're taking his batting into account as well?

This is across all cricket - hence Anderson ahead of Harris.

You have selected Willey, Cox & Johnson in the team? Why not pick John Thomas as well & try for the double hat-trick?

Re: Jimbo - what's the period? He took 37 @ 20 over the summer. Two MoS's IIRC.

Standing in for de Kock, wasn't he? Sanga can keep too after all.... still think Sarfraz deserves to be there though.
