Team needs a batter or all rounder I think.

de Villiers only played 18 Tests. Find that surprising.

Dravid hated opening and was pretty much forced to open or keep in odi.
Someone would have to force him to open for the d team

D'Oliveira at 7 for me then, with Dev at 8.

We need a tie break, as we've had a vote for Dhawan, Dolly and Fanie. Don't forget if we have Fanie back, we get Dujon at six, surely a place too high.

His average was only about 30. No more than a seven I think.

Dexter
De Silva
De Villiers
D'Oliveira
Dujon
K. Dev
Donald
Davidson
Doshi
