What do you guys think of that team?

With that we bat up to 11 (Everyone can hold a bat) and we have 6 bowlers.

Drop bosman for amla and swap gibbs and kallis and its basicly the side I would pick. Albie though needs to gain form else I may be tempted to pick a finisher like miller ahead of him.

in all honesty, gibs is past his due date, I wouldn't pick him for anything past provincial team.

I think he still has one good season in him. He perform well in the local games, hope he can take that form into his international games as well.

I feel amla is not needed in Pro20 as having 20 overs with 10 wickets in hand leads me to rather pick Bosman.

I pro20 if Bosman scores his 40 of 25 or 30 it is a great score. I am not saying amla can not be a Pro20 player I am just saying he will not be in my starting 11.

As to albie, he needs to come in earlier.

Who in their right mind would pick amla over bosman for pro20 considering bosman scored nearly 150 runs in 2 pro 20 innings for us thus far. Brave man to leave bosman out for amla :D.

Albie should come in during the powerplay overs, maybe number 3. Why can he not handle a nice hard new ball upfront even?

Sorry my mistake I misread. I though you were talking wc 2011 while instead it was wc 20/20. I would definitly pick bosman above amla for 20/20 cricket.

AS per the other thread this would be my wc 20/20 squad and side:



1.Smith
2.Bosman
3.Kallis
4.AB
5.Gibbs
6.Miller
7.Boucher
8.Parnell
9.Steyn
10.VDM
11.Theron
12.Pietersen
13.Amla
14.A.Morkel
15.M.Morkel

Even with 15 players in our side we'll still be able to choke in a final.

Seems I started it an no nobody reads anymore. 15 is the squad members total which you need to pick for the tournament. My main team is numbers 1 - 11 while the others don't play unless there is an injury.

We have 15 players in his team, we can make a final, but even with 20 players, we'll lose it.

Bwhahahaha very true.

I think stefan you should drop amla, he is not good coming in so low down the order. Although there is a good chance by the 6th over we are 99/12 so he can steady the innings.
