Well just seen todays team for Durham and Gary Park isn't playing, for some reason we are packed with bowlers today. Now ok we have a fair few to choose from but you can only use so many at a time.

M J Di Venuto, W R Smith, G J Muchall, B W Harmison, D M Benkenstein, G R Breese, P Mustard, O D Gibson, C D Thorp, G Onions, S J Harmison

C D Thorp, G Onions, S J Harmison are all Fast or Fast Medium bowlers
Breese is a spinner
B W Harmison is a useful Fast Medium all-rounder
Benkenstein is a wibbly wobbly medium pacer along the Collingwood lines, Muchall is similar.
Will Smith bowls a bit of usefull spin as well
Which leaves DiVenuto as a straight up batsman and Mustard as the keeper, with that lot I would have thought we could afford the extra batsman myself.
