Do Pietersen, Flintoff & Anderson make Nasser Hussain & Rob Key's BEST England XI?

[Music] she's career best for doing in the Test match against Australia [Applause] you couldn't wish for a better ball to put away for four to go past 200 well played Robert key and why wouldn't you smile his teammates appreciates him boy from nowhere last chance saloon came in gets his highest score in any form of cricket here at the home of cricket against West Indies well I'm welcome to another Sky Sports cricket lockdown vodcasts now the digital team we've asked myself and NASA to pick two teams loosely based on the areas that we played it now what see NASA played a lot more Test cricket than me so mines gonna spare my first-class career as much as it does the 15 Test matches I played Benedict is then gonna run one of his virtual test simulations and we're gonna find out who's was the better era Benedict explained the rules we're gonna have a coin toss to determine who has the first pick of the first type of player and if they were to pick say little rounder the other captain would also have to follow suit with an all-rounder throw in the next round if other captain will have the first pick and whatever style of player he chooses the other captain needs to follow suit the only real rules are that the two captains cannot pick each other as they will be captaining their own size and cannot play I have the coin here which will determine who goes first in the first round so as the man who captain England more in real life NASA Husseini we're gonna have a ball it's always called head it is a head we'll have a bowl I put on a cost but age is Benedict can I just say after lockdown can we burn the gags that you can't because your gags have gone down well no it's your haircut please I can't go on about Barnet's but what happened with you Barney well he tried to toddle I don't see and all the worst thing about that is she's she's cut a big strip in my hair like NC MCN and making me look like you know Carla Castano and she sell me out trying to blame me I mean how does that work why was that my fault I'm sitting on if she's going to Z we'll have a ball which means I'll let Kesey out first first back come on God you can have first pick number one you can have one so I don't just like straight away you can pick whoever you want but the NASA needs to pick a play of the same role in the team so I'm gonna I'm gonna pick the best backs together signals Kevin Peterson's first test hundred for the performance this could yet be the biggest day of his career stacks of four Pratt's it's not all about that I'm just trying to keep the people in form and I'm just looking research is important okay Kevin Pietersen all right so I've got a pic a batsman from my era the number four middle-order batsman from your era remember one slots already been taken aback see you at number three you're in there your captain from my era no the fan seeds Throwdown bowling pz0 got someone who got tough runs all the time man small in stature but big in heart Ryan thought there it is 200 for Graham thought first time he's got there in Test match cricket it's been a quite fantastic exhibition of batting from thought batting of the highest quality throughout from England's best player he's all smiles that'll do that's the sign declares you do you do you have another pick I'm gonna put key under pressure here because you'll have to choose between his only friend his best friend in the world and someone that he's constantly what sucking and texting Ben Stokes I'm gonna go England's greatest ever cricketer sir there's a clue Sir Ian both whose you all-rounder up well there's two things that you've said one you've got a pop of my ear so we face pop gun attacks which I disagree we don't know how did the bowling wasn't your area because none of your average particularly well you you know we don't know it's easier bowling at poor pliers we know that so you know the jerries are my hope Benedict's stats with Clint you've done me there because didn't want to have Stokes in my ear because it was so easy to crazy leaving Ben Stokes out well no I'm not yeah I'm gonna pick Flint here's a big shout out he's gone it's tradition Elgin filter was turning this game around Bathurst up today now with the ball comes into the attacks two wickets plantings gone forty eight two two magnificent piece of bowling deuce Andrew Flintoff every delivery on the bottom poor players you keep knocking every player of this generation I actually think Freddy was injured for a lot of the easier games the bangladesh's and teams like that and he played against the good ones and Freddy is best Freddy's best without standing so while I'm picking Flint off the team I'd say he had one good series where you could say that Benedict when I tell him that you said so you know it's not about computers and stats so Freddy's in there excuse the sweat keys please please do me a favor and bring me yes thank you end of argument I've got Stokes and as a specialist batsman there's nothing but my number five is number three in your side because you're not a batsman and Flintoff and surrounded you can have some bats so I've gotta go yeah you've got a picker you've got to pick a batsman okay he's gone Stokes the batsman from my ears oh are you so that's dr. Sabet if you have a baton swim your bowls a bit like Darren Maddie perhaps I'm gonna go the greatest cricketer I played with essex man graham Gooch now if you tell me rob key that Graham Gooch got runs against weak attacks you are a very very ordinary Graham Gooch has become only the fifth Englishman and the 12th player in all Test cricket history to score a triple century in Test cricket I'm gonna go and I'm gonna go on to England's best their best all-rounder their best batsmen nuggety left-hand baseball Oh Jimmy Anderson Anderson has the wicked he was prising it is almost the perfect finished the game alistair cooke does not take the caps to win the game but Jimmy Anderson will be absolutely delighted that in the process of winning this going for inland with the find a wicket he is gone past Glenn McGrath keep us in your ear now gave you the cap did you know emotional speech I gave the other week or month or whatever and then Sorkin 17 runs in his first test over his on the Jimmy Anderson to open the bowling see so I've now got pick an opening batsman and are we saying him he's a number 11 - nice to have come to finalize the battle Jimmy's definitely mine every opening batsman one of the great blokes but also I've got a good player Marcus trust gothic that's 200 to finish off the international season for Marcus dysgraphic we made a hundred Earl in the air here in the one internationals it's his first 200 in Test match cricket it's been a wonderful knock I think Trey's is actually an underrated regular I think he was one of England's very best good pick are we allowing that Benedict yes good you played a lot for your Test matches than you so there's a kind of handicapping system so yeah well I will allow a number sign under 11 oh my god you know I'm gonna go for because my number I'm gonna go for a lot with this not necessarily in international cricket Simon Jones and I don't know how he's gonna work out simulation of the fake game that's never going to be played or never existing but let me tell you Simon Jones is best and that's how we judge it in my opinion what was their best like Simon Jones I [Applause] Simon Jones England's hero in the first innings with the ball gets this vital breakthrough before the second new ball listen to this crowd here having played more Test matches I think he would have been England's best the Simon Jones is a you seem to be charged you're deciding you just end it with the ball 11 you so I belong only because you okay we need where do I go now Benedict can I go into different go wherever you you know ever you like he's got six in his team you've only got five okay so I've got two picks I need a spinner and a wicket keeper I'm gonna go Swan make his test oh you will use on my tour of South Africa if you remember Claire testing yeah after you play with just gothic played with keys equally I can't let you have Swan and Toby sorry I picked Swan friedlin but I can't happen we didn't pick him in a test side though I picked him for the tour of South Africa but he's not in my era your Jarlo just like you waited for me to go Grand Slam you knew this would be the you wondered Swan I can tell you what you can have Crisco I mean how many spinners can you absolutely snail on this podcast seriously you have six mates in the world you're down to two now right I can't really I'm really disappointed I can't pick someone that I picked for an England tour Salisbury let's get this right that if he wants to try and argue that you Pig Swan and then you and your Mike Fletcher didn't then pick in for another ten years almost you sent him into the wilderness because you didn't like its character so don't even try and claim him now I'm sorry be finished on your horns and that's a font right I'm gonna go Alex - can I make sure as my wicketkeeper let's go down the hill excuse cam purring like mad and he's coming back for his hundred today in Test cricket and he is absolutely lighted about that same celebrations at Barbados it's a long wait products jury hasn't scored a hundred since 1994 Vince museum does at Lord's played with him for a number of years best keeper batsman by far brilliant brilliant player I'm gonna go knowing Ally - just give me you on tuition rounders so I'm gonna go a bit of spin with Mo and also some useful lower order runs let's hope that Murray's not having a rest right so that's what your big speech was about this ghost law number eight so my spin out these grants my pick to leave for the left-hander but just wanted already no doubt put some confusion into his mind all sorts of thoughts jumbled in that mind therefore Chris Rogers but that line perfect for the Austin you just almost in tears that you better go you hold it I've got to go back every night because I I can't take no in Ali look at each other neat place from my ear I mean obviously all the way through up one did you ash into the rough Ashley jobs and some useful runs down the order [Applause] but it's not dissimilar to that ball that both my getting all those years ago it's a magic ball from Giles they all know wonderful piece of bowling from an orthodox left arm spinner this is one of those moments where you just go out to mr. captain when you're after you've realized that the toys pick my I'm back in you exact oh cheese that didn't want your original I've gone Charles you've gone swamp and then I'm gonna go so my choices Benny of wicketkeeper I'm guessing the Garrett Jones more make Jonah Matt prior and employ with Joss and people like that and Johnnie Bairstow I'm gonna go I mean I'm at prior there he goes arms raised a huge cheer from that cut to the boundary he becomes a 17th player to score that's much hundred on debut for England I thought Matt Pryor was an outstanding Craig Euler why are you doing all that histrionics is if you were thinking about we just wanted to give Garen because you can connection a bit message then you thought about and then you completely build garand to go from that [Music] [Laughter] Mendes and suddenly your pig blood come on what am I missing Benny you're missing it's a batting wise you've got Gooch so you need another open the best you is going so far you've got Husein thought o'them Gooch Anderson Stewart's and Giles so you need at least another seamer do it can open okay so you'd need another middle-order batsman to go with Husein and thought really thinking about my mate from Essex actually I'm gonna go above forgotten my childhood here I've got picture of them up somewhere no doubt about that Lori's ex ago a drive David Brin's in pasta 209 come back for the third on to 202 and make no Sanderlings his best in Test match cricket just looking past as previous 200 here which you bet against enduring on in so denied I mean please seriously do you know how that's the most this is why it's you know such a sad time for me because I'm so disappointed I'm in my own team every time I hear my name it just I just got something at the end when we have the batting lineup and it goes something like you know I'm telling all of us to give Peter sort of Stokes a single and they're coming and surrounding you keeping him or let this but do not Jimmy get him out now see that you could throw the balls you can throw the ball to Gucci yes so you got Gooch opening with the stuarts you've got Gower the same thought both them you might want another given you got beefy might well you need not see me at least I mean do any players will need left they made me to another three more three more gone Anderson Oh Darren golf [Applause] in the dressing room 202 wicked C equals Jung snow what a brilliant performance that is three wickets in the over a triple wicket maiden and Pakistan are all out 203 188 behind you at all and then gets absolutely Goffin Anderson opening attack so what do I have to pick Benny see you've gone you picked the number three basically which I've already got so I need another opener you got two scoffing another opener your middle order is key Peterson Stokes and then I've seen flintoff six prior seven batting in you're missing a batsman especially the you in there you're missing a couple of batsmen really well I tell you I'm not gonna it's not fair I don't think I'm not gonna pick Joe root because he is way outside you know I'd pretty much retired when even started playing county cricket this juice for not having root in the side so I've got I'm gonna limit myself to Strauss Cooke who else is there born she I want born in there I'm no Warren cook or Strauss he on warning would be my captain but I've got a cookie England's best ever round scorer Straus not horny ping Strauss didn't name I'm gonna pick you know I'm going to pick elastic Alistair Cooke not there that's just a single or what has happened here what a way to bring it up what a way to bring up three figures Alistair who has done it a century in his first ever Test match I've know a century in his last well played water baldness buzzes fantastic achievement family friends acquaintances teammates one Viennese first a hundred in his last so that stress cook-key Peterson Stokes flintoff prior Swan and then I need another bowl you've had gothy Simon Jones I've got and I'm gonna have I've got Freddie I'm gonna go for Stuart broad 8:15 best bowling figures on this ground quite a remarkable morning really as Stuart Broad had to deliver no Jimmy Anderson and boy did he deliver absolutely outstanding Stuart broad 8 v Dame he wouldn't imagine when he woke up today and Alistair Cooke wanna toss the ball he's thought no Jimmy anis and I gotta lead the way with a new ball and hasn't he done that with 8 for 15 Australia all out for 60 but Stuart broad take about absolutely awesome definitely right I'm gonna give you one Benny and then I want you to read my side out please and then I'll make my final decision I'm gonna go someone that if he hadn't got injured would have been one of England's all-time greats I'm gonna go Angus Fraser [Applause] voguing this has been played in the Caribbean on up-and-down pitches Benedict Angus was a high quality player and bloke and like aside yong-go injured Angus was a spot so could you give me my side up-to-date Cleese Benedict yes I'll come up with a rough batting order for you Gooch Stewart Husein Gower Thorpe both them Giles Gough Fraser Anderson plus one more I've got Gough Fraser Anderson both and that's enough seen as I've got Giles doing that Barry Bell up a snorer pace well there's four boulders there don't you pick your side all right Alistair Cooke I mean the bloke who's got the most ever runs in England how many finger waving chance do we have to hear from you over the years about England have called you speak English seamless abroad and all you've done is for English CMAs you know this week we found in the Caribbean you got join at number seven then got through hi I'm gonna move Beefeater seven I'm gonna need another middle-order batsman I'm going to go as long as he Shane Warne in the opposition as long as morning eight in the opposition I'm gonna go Robin Smith Robert Smith the judge that's a beautiful shot from Robin Smith once again square the wicket on the offside seven fours and a six now to Robin Smith he's on to 45 the judge was a joy to watch it really was top bloke top player of quit bowling outstanding cricketer I'm going to go Robin Smith in that middle order you know I love one side that is an unbeatable side with me in charge motivating and cunning plans for Ashley jars etc that can't be beaten use your 11 pick well Rob can I just ask while you've not picked your big mugger of michael Atherton you basically do what you did is captain you're having to fiddle people out of position you know again they miss you all you talk about is pic openers don't go and try and poke makeshift clothes and you've done exactly that I'm just picking the best side I'm not doing what you used to do it can't just pick your best mates we had a great laugh and we lost every single game we played in but we had a great laugh in the bar off do it's great over to you pick you last night yeah it's funny you say because I'm gonna [Laughter] change of pace sure [Music] Australia seventy-five the law recognizes back so by the simcha 30 Australian seven runs away from victory England just need two more wickets the axis of Tommy at his best when he hadn't sort of been drinking 20 pints of coca-cola you know and just think in you know Korean chicks all the time when Harmy was fit after training with Newcastle for that one year and then it became like his working men's club with Bobby Robson and all that Tommy was one of the best and Benny what's our team right the the Nasir Hussain England team Gooch Stuart the same captain Gower Robin Smith Thorpe both um Giles Goff Fraser Anderson and the Rob key England 11 trust Gothic cook key decent keys Kabir's steaks flintoff fryer Swan Simon Jones Stuart Broad and Steve Harmison have a request that I have the Stuart Broad before he got here in their dumps his load at every occasion with the bath and I asked the Stuart Broad against Pakistan when he got that brilliant hundred visit Lords in 2004 you can put anyone up against them they'd score runs against that I don't think the weighted averages worked our way away from home you won't well so we did now the match is to be played five days from next Monday so we could should we do the toss now would you like to yeah I suppose we could benedict because the game is not really happening so you don't have to wait till Monday I mean we could all numbers in a computer now and the result yes you called earlier so you can you can cause the same unbiased coin I don't he's gonna ask Freddie an army what they think what do you think heads heads it is tails I'm afraid so NASA as captain of your eleven you have won the toss what would he be electing to do come 11 o'clock on Monday morning oh you don't you told me get Tommy M give me any information where it's been played what's the weather you know things like that so I'm gonna go with his weak Boulding attack I mean that is a really weak bowling attack I'm gonna go I'm gonna have a bat with my lineup Gooch and Stewart etc lots of batting dilo well everyone will be able to tune in on Monday and more send out the session by session scores so everyone can keep track of what's going on but benedict sorry Jimmy and you tuned into a fake game it's impossible it's not real it is it Benedict's life it is blue welcome to my world easy getting any way you can just Bartlett tells me when we gave them 18 it's not real Bernie let's see if you get some runs on the computer key he makes 100 it's not real you
