The balls’ team of the tournament

I have noticed an abnormal amount of people picking their best team of the world t20 thingy.

So I thought I better do one.

Andre Fletcher; 3 ducks in 5 innings, something special in that.
Jacques Kallis; someone has to keep the run rate in check. 
Rob Key; listed at 3 will bat at 6, once.
Ricky Ponting; captaincy and morale.
Jehan Mubarak; 7 innings for a top score of 21.
Jacob Oram; remember when he could bat.
James Foster; remember that Yuvraj stumping… and that’s all.
Stuart Broad; fielding specialist.
Brett Lee; came back to help Australia.
Isuru Udana; lego hair twice went for over 40, top effort.
Glenn Rogers; 4 overs for 52 runs, doing it for Scotland.
Ishant Sharma; 2 wickets, heaps of runs, shit hair.

There is nothing this team can’t accomplish.

    Scott Styris has to be a bit unlucky there.

    Shouldn’t Dhoni be in the mix for his captaincy skills? Perhaps a joint gig with Ponting?

    And I never tire of the Xavier Marshall experiment.

    Fawaad Alam??

  4. Alex says:

    Ravindra Jadeja – match finisher extraordinaire

  5. Chris says:

    Not a bad team, but don’t think it compares to this one.
    Warner
    Watson
    Ponting
    Haddin
    Clarke
    D Hussey
    M Hussey
    Johnson
    Lee
    Hauritz
    Bracken

    By the way, have you seen that Watson has pulled up sore after doing nothing for 2 weeks? Bring on back to back test matches.

  6. Leg Break says:

    Nice work Chris.

    As for Watson; obviously Leicester is a dangerous place.

    Ha! Love the hair references – Udana and Ishant have bad hair days everyday. Maybe you should write a piece on how hair affects cricket performances. Afridi maybe, and certainly Bracken is overlooked because of his hair – Oz doesn’t want to set the next generation a bad example, maybe.

  8. jrod says:

    I must admit, Styris, Alam, Dhoni and Marshall were all in at the team at certain stages.

    Never thought of Jadeja though.

  9. [...] Jrod picks his World Twenty20 team based on exemplary performances in the tournament: Jacques Kallis; someone has to keep the run rate in check. Ricky Ponting; captaincy and morale. Jacob Oram; remember when he could bat. Stuart Broad; fielding specialist. Brett Lee; came back to help Australia. Ishant Sharma; 2 wickets, heaps of runs, shit hair.
