If Victoria was in Sri Lanka

Dav Whatmore would probably be coach.

Arjuna Ranatunga and Dean Jones would be best friends, and enemies.

And Dirk Nannes would be god.

The Lankan side would look like this.

Nick Jewell
Chris Rogers
Kumar Sangakarra
David Hussey
Mahela Jayawardene
Brad Hodge
Prasana Jayawardena
Peter Siddle
Ajantha Mendis
Murali Muralitharan
Dirk Nannes

Fahveez Maharoof (12th)

Ok the openers would be a little fragile, but look at the 3,4 & 5, style personified.

The bowling attack is pretty handy too, left arm proper quick, steady as a train seam bowler, wrist spinner and a mystery spinner.

That is one hell of a balanced attack, but the tail is frail, but you could fix that with Vaas or Maharoof at 8.

For some reason the site of seeing Dirty Dirk at one end, and Mendis at the other is a dream for me.
