Well, Dale Steyn and Nathan Bracken should prove a handful. Noffke and Khan could both be handy. The additional bowling options offered by batsmen like Kallis and Cameron White should be handy. The attack knocks spots off that of the Kolkata Knight Riders.

Boucher is a clean enough hitter of the ball, as is Cameron White. Chanderpaul is capable of playing almost any kind of innings. Dravid and Kallis add a bit of class: if the IPL ever gets around to serving up a pitch that's fit for a game of cricket (where the bowlers can routinely command respect) that trio should prove very useful.

What we now need is a decent pitch or two: pitches where hitting through the line without getting to the pitch of the ball is pretty much suicidal.
