It takes skill to constantly get after the bowling and it takes skill to constantly bowl cheap overs. I agree it's not 'pure' but it's a damn sight more exciting than 50 overs cricket, which still has the bore of the middle overs. I like all three forms of the game - it's cricket. It's meanlingless totally, it's also harmless though.

This will please Danny boy.
NO Middlesex presence, not even the Shah!

Prior as keeper Mad - perleeese B@s ... that really tarnishes your record as a selector!

Doubt that they wont open with Maddy, not sure Collingwood would get a game. Benham's a waste of space. What Jones? Bruce is a munter. Dufflord.

Who'd you pick Merlin, seriously? Middx are quite a poor T20 team. Possibly Shah certainly.

Simon Jones

Saw Bruce in a televised 20/20 last season, and he comfortably out-bowled Tremlett.

I'm not totally covinced by Benham either, but it would be good for at least one untried player to be given a go.

Not playing Collingwood is unthinkable.

He's not the best, but it does free up a place in the lower-middle order

Shah would be my only pick ... the rest are deffo not T20.
Mind you Chaminda Vaas joins us this coming season... but, cany as he may be, methinks age is catching up with him, especially in T20 bang-abouts (thinking here only for the Mddsx team effort).

Loye should open rather than Tresco. Don't know much about Benham- what about Benning though?

I'd much prefer Ben Phillips to Bruce or Jones. He's done it at the toughest times year in and out and there's also no way I wouldn't go into the T20 game without two spinners.

Benham is sheer duffness. Gidman if you want someone in the lower middle order IMO. I'd replace Collingwood with Sales, who smacks the hell out of the ball and goes from ball 1. He averages 35 and strikes at 140 and most importantly averages well over two 6's per innings.

Maddy
Trescothick
Pietersen
Sales
Flintoff
Gidman
Prior
Swann
Phillips
Broad
Keedy

Plenty of batting, possibly amongst the most economical bowling which is a nice coincidence.

As one who constantly slates JAMODI's I don't mind 20/20 either as I take it for what it is - meaningless fun.

I wouldn't like to see meaningless 20/20 series all over the shop but why not a 20/20 world championship every year?

I tell you something though - I bet for all the 'meaningless' tag the players take it seriously ( witnessed by domestic 20/20 )

I'm glag virgil has said we will play a proper 20/20 team - perfect for the likes of Benning to get an international taster.

I don't mind being called wise, but 'man' really grates.
Especially from my three-times ex-fiance . . .
