Pakistan have had better pace bowlers than India hands down.
The first Cricket sheep thread
- Thread starter KM
- Start date
Very silly question, but Shakib or Kumble for my spin option ? I know the answer should be straightforward, but Kumble struggled in the Windies. 
Fixed that for you.
Due to lesser time available for write up preparation, first match day will be on Friday(VGE vs AKshay and PS18 VS RT). If KM is not around, we will need @Aldo to start threads and add poll.
Is there a neutral cricket wiz that I can get an opinion from please?
Just go to the cricket thread and pick a random poster, it's what I did lolIs there a neutral cricket wiz that I can get an opinion from please?
I'd still go with Kumble.Very silly question, but Shakib or Kumble for my spin option ? I know the answer should be straightforward, but Kumble struggled in the Windies.

Kumble for your medium pacer, Shakib as your spinner
It makes me happy that you even considered it mate!Very silly question, but Shakib or Kumble for my spin option ? I know the answer should be straightforward, but Kumble struggled in the Windies.
12th man for me is Jr Murray.

Thommo might have something to say about that.Best of luck mate!

Kumble. Easily.Very silly question, but Shakib or Kumble for my spin option ? I know the answer should be straightforward, but Kumble struggled in the Windies.
Two matches. 1 tour. great sample size
Basit Ali is my twelfth man.
If you see the batting card of WI there may be a huge difference. I think 2009 WI board had issues ?
Kumble played vs Lara and prime Chanderpaul.
Shakib played vs the following top 6: Dale Richards, Omar Phillips, Travis Dowlin, Ryan Hinds, Floyd Reifer, David Bernard. I've never even heard of any of these guys and this series was played in like 2009.
Simple.
Yep, 2nd string side. Hurts me to say it as a Bengali.
Damn, you're right. They had a shit line up. Shakib as my No 12 then.
News from the centre at packed MCG is that @VanGaalEra has won the toss vs @Akshay . What's your decision, VGE? VanGaalEra keeps out Jr. Murray while Akshay keeps out Darren Powell.
Was just about to say this. The WI side kumble bowled to and the bunch of kids Shakib bowled to makes it a non contest.
I wish I was playing @VanGaalEra
Considering VGE's record so far this draft, we'll need to wait half a day for him to choose
Unless he calls someone an Idiot againConsidering VGE's record so far this draft, we'll need to wait half a day for him to choose
@Akshay should start riling him up, gets a bye
It is obvious that @paulscholes18 will sit out Shervin Campbell so I went ahead with toss. @RedTiger has won the toss at SSC. What's your decision? RedTiger will have Hirwani sitting out.
Shakib is my water bottle and Nick Knight is Crappy's I guess.
In the matchup between @crappycraperson and @Ijazz17 , Ijazz wins the toss at Barbados. Decision? Crappy keeps out Nick Knight. Shakib carries water for team Ijazz.

Well (Clive), we'd like to put the opposition into bat first.
