I strongly disagree and think this "they're chokers" tag is rubbish. Their feats in test matches (or any matches) in the last 3-4 years show they thrive under pressure nowadays and have the personnel that will get them through tight situations - Amla/Faf/De Villiers/Steyn/Morkel at minimum are all 'big game' players with near all of them being in great form at the moment, their #7 (Allrounder spot) and spinner is their only weaknesses.
Also I'm struggling to make selections that fit inside this budget, going to have to use a few minnow players that are semi-decent (But will probably struggle against real bowlers/batsman).

I'm defs in for this, expecting one of SA/NZ/Australia to win the tournament. SL/WI/Pakistan/India/England have had glimpses of potential but really are just too inconsistent to win this and will struggle against well rounded teams like the trio.
Pollard is , but Bravo not being selected is disgraceful. The board is terrible, and then try to back that up by saying they're looking to the future when they have 5 players in the squad that are older than Bravo, just smh.

Man your board really sucks. What do you think about Bravo/Pollard
McCullum is great, but way too inconsistent. I'll put him in my team once NZ reach the semi finals.
I don't think most of the teams have much of a chance. NZ/SA/AUS are the only teams capable of winning it in my opinion. England won't win. They haven't won an ODI series in so long. Their bowling attack is pretty ordinary, and their batting is relatively inexperienced. Morgan is in terrible form, not much of a chance of them winning with what they have.

As long as the Poms or Aussie don't win. It'll be ok
