My team's similar to Nostromo's.

1. Richards
2. Barlow
3. Kallis
4. Greame Pollock
5. Dudley Nourse
6. Aubrey Faulkner
7. Proctor
8. Lindsay/Boucher (w)
9. Shaun Pollock (c)
10. Tayfield
11. Donald

12. Bland

Pollock's got a pretty good record as captain, with a winning percentage. I've heard good things about Lindsay from my father, but I can't help but wonder whether Boucher's sheer statistical feats will some day make him an automatic solution. Finally, I've included Faulkner as a No. 6 batsman and second spinner, instead of Bruce Mitchell as a third opener. Bland has to be the 12th man, as his fielding makes him worth his place alone, but his batting record is good enough that he could also be one of South Africa's greatset ever batsmen.
