I'll give it to you, so far you have a solid lineup, although I'm not so convinced about RTD in the FC format, he's gun on Cricket Captain but we can't go on that always
He was pretty gun from what I saw of him at Essex this year. And he played a blinder in the pro40 final last year.
True, but that's OD. I definately agree for him in that form but not as certain for the longer format....oh well i'll cricinfo it
Your gonna struggle to find 4 top notch batsman now Benny, will be interesting to see who you go for.
Lol ok then. And FTR Cook got 66 in the county championship, Ravi got 52 off 61 and RTD got 40 off 20.

RTD's stats appear very nice, I have to admit. Thought the bowling would be slightly worse but it's a pleasant surprise kinda...shame i didn't snap him up, thought he'd wait until Rd 9 maybe.
Depends what people are looking at I have 3 FC batsman that I'm hoping to pick, your batting will definetely be your weak point TBH
