Presumably the eight selectors are not allowed to vote?

I wouldn't mind voting for a team that looks better than mine. Also, even if we all vote for ourselves, it would just be one vote we would have "manipulated".

If there is still room, then I'm in.
Since there are only 8 slots, if a diehard fan wishes to partake I will bow out.

Unless we can expand it to 9...

Should make it so people CANNOT vote for themselves,

Otherwise 8/9/10 teams will represent 50 percent of participants who will likely vote

Right, an Aussie creates a thread on Zim first XI and an Englishman, an Indian, a South African, a Bangladeshi and a New Zealander sign up. We await the resident Aussies, German and Tajikistani to complete the line up :)
Is it possible Zimbabwe has more non-native fans than any other test playing country?
Maybe the non-native fans are only more visible due to the comparativly small number of native fans?

Anyway, I'd much like to see the XIs of our real and resident Zimbos, like Googly or Conant--so I'll pass.
