You look at the Afghanistan squad and Mohammed Nabi, still part of things from England's point of view.
Joss Butler, part of the squad then.
Admittedly, some names that have
have disappeared now from international cricket.
Kees Wetter was England's wicketkeeper.
Michael Lum had opened the batting and the success in 2010.
A young Owen Morgan, you were there, Finney, of course.
Graham Swan, Luke Wright.
And again, India's side, the names that were in it, MS Dhoni, Gautam Gambhir,
Ashwin, Khan, Coley, Rayner, Saywag was there, Rohit Sharma, Yuvraj, Harbijan, Australia, a side that included the likes of a young Pat Cummins, just 19 years old, the Hussies, Mitchell Stark, David Warner.
And the list goes on.
And then you look at that Sri Lanka side as well.
And for me, that was just one of the absolute great teams with Jaya Wardner, Matthews, Chandamal, Dilshan, Harath, Malinga, Mendes, both Mendes, Sangakara, Tirumani.
I mean, just wonderful names.
It sort of almost feels like we can be at a point now where we can sort of hark back to a golden age in some ways.
Jack Callis was part of the South Africa squad as well.
I mean, there's brilliant names looking at it.
And in some ways, it was a bit of a novel experience, I suppose, because in those days, it wasn't quite the cross-pollination between T20 tournaments that meant that you were rubbing shoulders with these names on a yearly basis.
It's actually more of a novelty seeing these guys.
