Hilditch for Dyson?

Murray Bennett was dire as well.

I think Steven Smith was a one day player.

Trevor Chappell is a good pick.

Wonder if that WI team would have beaten any of the full England teams of the decade.

Not heard of Butts.

Butts was a spinner. Not much game time for him during the 80's.
