Flower Power, that Test team is about as good as we can put out, assuming that is who they take out of the XV. I'm assuming you had Price at 8 ahead of Chatara, rather than Meth. If Meth is in he'll be at 8, unless they were to play Cremer instead of Price and he is at 8 and Meth is at 9. The deepest we could bat would be your top 7 plus Meth, Cremer, Price and Jarvis.

No Streak or Flower, that sounds ominous. Does this mean Grant is out of contention for the coach position.

I imagine the finance manager is going to make sure the players don't spend all of ZCs money on room service charges.
Neil Johnson, Alistair Campbell, Murray Goodwin, Andy Flower (w), Grant Flower, Dave Houghton, Guy Whittall, Heath Streak (c), Andy Blignaut, Ray Price, Eddo Brandes

Guys we must not forget how these guys left cricket in the first place. And the only place where people truly repent, forgive and forget is in the Lords Church. Anywhere else people make trade offs, looking out for Number 1. These are just the chickens coming home to roost. Their trade off contract is probably over and they are now indispensable they got what they want and ZC got what they want. The main issue why they are not goin to WI will come out if ZC are really serious about this summit business.

...I give up. We all know how important it is to have a finance manager on a tour to sign the (dud) cheques. Whereas coaches, naah, not useful. Actually, why don't we dispense with players too, and muster up a bunch of Border Gezi youths, with a party official to spur them on? Fired up by the spirit of our glorious revolution, I'm sure they'll do us proud!
Peterhouse U14C 4th change bowler and no. 10 batsman (but only because Aaron didn't have a bat).
