Drafting the ultimate Dibbly Dobbly XI with the one and only Dibbly Dobbly Man himself, Abhishek! 🏏

We dive into a fun draft challenge where every player is a dibbly dobbly bowler — unpacking strategies, debating picks, and celebrating the quirks of white-ball cricket. Expect plenty of banter as we go back and forth on team balance, player qualities, and those “how did he even make the cut?” moments.

By the end, we’ve built a team that’s equal parts tactical and tongue-in-cheek — a tribute to the often underappreciated art of dibbly dobbly bowling in cricket history.
