does Alan Lamb deserve a mention ?

Brett Lee might be hard done to as well with there being a strong bowling lineup

if Shanks was around he would be pushing for Nathan Lyon :hide

Looking at the stats, the only issue is that we've left out statistically the greatest international bowler of all time, George Lohmann, for a bowler who didn't take 100 Test wickets, Harold Larwood. If no problem, I guess this is the L team. If someone backs me up on Lohmann, we should swap them.

If Barnes gets in the 'B' team, then there's definitely a case to be made...

Don't want to jump the gun but there are some legendary pace bowling Ms. Might struggle to get the new ball.
