Urgh. Shannon Gabriel. Now we're into the dregs.

Due to lack of options, I'll go with Van Zyl from South Africa. Batting needs improvement, though has a ton and has a handy record with the ball

3. Bell

2/2 of WI/Ban/Zim, 1 SL, 1 Ind, 1 Aus, 1 NZ, 1 Pak, 1 ENG, 1 SA

Can't believe this guy is still around

Ahmed Shehzad (Pak)
861 runs @ 43.05 from 11 matches (only 25y.o)
Very handy opening bat

and

Jimmy Neesham (NZ)
Handy middle order batsman and 4th seam relief bowler
10 matches
638 runs @ 37.94
12 wickets @ 46.00

1. A Shezad (Pak)
2. S Marsh (Aus)
3. C Purjara (Ind)
4. U Khawaja (Aus)
5.
6. J Neesham (NZ)
7. Q DeKock** (S.A)
8. S Broad (Eng)
9. D Perera (Sri)
10. D Steyn (S.A)
11. K Roach (W.I)
12.

Just need one WI/Ban/Zimb player (will 100% be my 12th man) and another player from anywhere except Aus or S.A.

Liking the look of this side. Top 4 average 40+ (Purjara & Khawja almost 50), best test keeper in the game (50+ av), and 3 quality strike bowlers with a handy all rounder.

He's not that good if you ask me.

He's not that good if you ask me.

Compared to some of my other potential options to fill a role, Temba's alright. Especially for SA
