Best 11

[Bradman99]

I've seen all these threads going around about greatest 11 post war, before war and what not.. So I want to know who you would have in your side as the CURRENT best 11. Both tests and one dayers, even do 20/20's if you want I don't care about 20/20's though haha

Katich Gambhir Sangakkara Tendulkar Chanderpaul Clarke Haddin Swann Steyn S.Clark Bollinger

Katich Gambhir Sangakkara Tendulkar Chanderpaul Clarke Haddin Swann Steyn S.Clark:hysterical: Bollinger

MItchell Johnson instead of S Clark

[Bradman99]

Clark aside the rest looks very solid. Clark hasn't played a test match in yonks.

Sehwag Twatson Kallis Tendulkar Clarke No Idea about no.6 Dhoni Swann Steyn Bollinger Asif

That XI is the best TEAM at the moment. Is that not what you were expecting? :cantstop:

[Bradman99]

Now that I think of it.. yes you are right haha. Did not mean it that way though lol

Clark aside the rest looks very solid. Clark hasn't played a test match in yonks.

And he surely deserves to play. He is still Australia's best bowler.

[Serani]

Clark is even slower than Ishant.

[Bradman99]

And he surely deserves to play. He is still Australia's best bowler.

What is the point when he is just going to get injured again and he's near retirement anyway. I know he's a class bowler and always will be but sometimes you know when the time is up, I think that's the case with Clark. With Bollinger, Johnson, Siddle, Harris, Hilfenhaus, Watson and McKay I think we are in pretty good shape.

Tests Kallis Sehwag Ponting Sachin Hussey Dhoni Vettori Johnson Swann Zaheer Khan Steyn ODIs Sehwag Sachin Ponting Kallis Yuvraj 'Dhoni Watson Johnson Vettori Zaheer Steyn Tontee Tonteee Sehwag Warner Watson Dilshan Taylor Haddin Morkel Vettori Harbhajan Langeveldt Malinga P.S : sachin is excluded because he has refused to play T20s, otherwise he will be in my playing XI always. P.S 2 : It ha also to be noted that Murali is on the verge of retirement ,s othats why i have not included him in Tests, otherwise he is in for Swann anyday.

So No Pakistani bowler deserve to be picked up? :nervous: com'on guys... I dont belive much on Ranking, usually I noticed Indians follow it more than any one else... Asif at 4th in Test, and Zaheeeeerr... yar be realistic, Afridi is a sort of bowler we all know, even he is way way ahead of Zaheer in ODI ranking...

First Asif should play sufficient number of test match without drugs. And Afridi is a good ODI bowler. But not so good to be selected in ODI XI. And i don't take rankings seriously.

If Clark is really injured and hasnt recovered his old form, I will take Sidebottom then.
