Q: My Best Grade team - Adam McNamara 1991 to 2007
I had the good fortune of playing for the two best grade / district clubs in Australia, that being St Kilda CC and St George CC. Both clubs are steeped in history (seven players in the Australian team of the century), strong cultures centred around passion for the club, an environment of success and where aspiring cricketers honed their skills to become better cricketers and people.
I have lifelong friends and many wonderful memories from my playing days at both clubs. I was fortunate to be part of premiership winning teams (lower grades) and club championships at both clubs. Over the journey I learnt a great deal from those associated with both clubs be that players, coaches, or administrators. I was a fringe player at 1st grade level so for me it was a privilege to observe and play with so many great players.

Q: What’s your Australian Test team for the 4th Ashes test at Old Trafford.
Here’s mine
Khawaja
Labuschagne
Smith
Head
Marsh
Green
Carey
Neser
Cummins
Starc
Murphy
Warner has been a wonderful player, but his time has come. He has been lucky that he is playing in an era where there are no Australian batsmen outside the top 6 who average 40 in first class cricket.
I would consider opening with Green as I’m conscious Justin Langer started opening in similar circumstances and other players who were pushed up the order through necessity and opportunity include David Boon, Shane Watson, Simon Katich and Usman Khawaja. I would keep Head and Marsh in the middle order.
I would hope Green doesn’t listen to his captain and coach if they tell him to bowl 6 short balls an over.
Hazelwood is unlucky but Neser’s form is irresistible.
I think Murphy is a great prospect but if he is not effective at Old Trafford I would consider drafting in Maxwell for The Oval.
What’s your team?
