Heat best XI with everyone in, wow

1. Watson
2. Reardon
3. Burns
4. Forrest
5. Lynn
6. Hartley
7. Cutting
8. Hopes
9. Flintoff
10. Johnson
11. Vettori

Forgot our newest signing Wato

Samuel Badree
Just a few facts on him:
"Badree has played 22 T20 Internationals for the West Indies, taking 31 wickets and is currently the number one ranked ICC bowler in T20 cricket.

Quite amazingly, he has the second best economy rate in the world in all T20 international and domestic matches."

Will the Heat surprise by going with a twin spin attack of Vettori and Badree,

Yeah you're right Q, I got him mistaken for the bald bloke who bowls for the Renegades hahaha, don't ask me why either.

Surely Jackson Bird and Clint Mckay are in that team Nige? Both former Australian short and long format players and both posess the great ability to take wickets and bowl economically (especially Bird).

1. Wright
2. White
3. KP
4. Huss
5. Maxi
6. Handscomb
7. Faulks
8. Hastings
9. Feldman
10. Bird
11. Beery

Just so I could understand who they were without thinking (changed a few names) haha, but wouldn't you go with that?
McKay, Stoinis, Barrel, Cliffy as 12th man, surely?

It's a tough one.

The quality of pace bowlers is ridiculous, that's why like I said it's so hard to pick. Inevitably, I had to leave some good players out.

I love Jackson Bird, but I'm probably more biased to Stoinis and Barrel (Boland) who are both Vics. They both bowl pace and Stoinis is an allrounder and is handy with the bat in hand too (just like Faulkner).

Speaking of, Faulks is a lock if fit. Then we've got long time Stars in CMac and Duke, the latter of which is capable of a cameo with the bat.

Feldman's been around for a while and has bowled well previously for Queensland and the Sydney Thunder, I can't see them leaving out the new guy.

So you've got: Stoinis, Boland, Bird, Faulkner, McKay, Hastings, Feldman, Wright and Worrall.

Wright's the opener, he won't be left out.
Feldman the new guy, he won't be left out.
Faulkner's got the allround ability, he won't be left out.

Still looking at two more from that list of Stoinis, Boland, Bird, McKay, Hastings, Worrall.

You probably rule out Worrall to narrow it down to 5, but you still have to pick two of them from 5.
