Alrighty then for my wild card pick I'll round out my opening batsman. Initially I couldn't stand this bloke but over time I've come to respect and admire his achievements especially his guard of honor for Punter. The most experienced captain in test cricket history

Okay my first pick of this double is one of the finest all-rounders that world cricket has ever seen and a legend of Australian cricket:

Charlie Macartney (1910-1919).

CharlieMac.jpg

Go on, I dare you to bounce me.

"The Governor-General" averaged 41.78 with the bat and 27.55 with the ball (including a 10 wicket match) and was known for his flamboyant strokeplay. In 1922 Wisden proclaimed him as" "by many degrees the most brilliant and individual Australian batsmen of the present day" and The Don cites Macartney as one of his main inspirations in his cricket career.

1. Arthur Morris (1950-1959)
2.
3. Don Bradman (1930-1939)
4. George Headley (1940-1949)
5. Allan Border (1970-1979)
6. Charlie Macartney (1910-1919)
7. Alan Knott (1960-1969)
8. Clarrie Grimmett (1920-1929)
9. Curtly Ambrose (1990-1999)
10. Tom Richardson (1877-1909)
11. Courtney Walsh (1980-1989)

So that's all eras taken care of except 2000-present and my wildcard. Enjoy this free drafting lesson.

You've got a beast of a team, but that's the most fragile tail I've ever seen.
