Lefties v Righties

Right chaps, I'm wading through paperwork and I'm bored. So I'd like 11s please, left handers verses right handers. If they do a bit of both, its the main discapline that counts ie Giles is a lefty.

So bring it on, and amaze me with your teams, also state who'd win.

Jones bats left handed but should not qualify for the lefties team.

Why not? It's 50-50 to me. I just think he's better than Zoysa and Zaheer Khan in both batting and bowling. I say we allow ambidextrous players to be on either side.

That's true, although surely it should be their strength that is classed as making them lefty or righty.

Ahem. My, thats MY criteria was that what ever their MAIN discipline was dictatedwhich team they were in. Therefore, Jones (right arm MF) goes in the rights team, despite being a lefthand bat, and Tresco (lh hand bat) goes into the lefts team despite his right arm trundlers.
