Bublu Bhuyan Posted September 28, 2010 Posted September 28, 2010 Dude edit the link it aint working: www.cricinfo.com/magazine/content/current/story/478566.html And :WTF: no :punter:? Is this some kinda joke? The list includes only those players who made in their respective team's All Time XI. Ponting failed to make it to the All Time Australian XI picked by Cricinfo.

Bublu Bhuyan Posted September 28, 2010 Posted September 28, 2010 Punter didn't make to the all time Aus XI? :omg: :hmmm: He was the 12th man. He couldn't dislodge Greg Chappell and Allan Border from the playing 11.
Bublu Bhuyan Posted September 28, 2010 Posted September 28, 2010 I'd prefer just one all rounder and Gary Sobers will get the pick. In case of two all rounders in the team, Imran Khan and Keith Miller will battle it out for the second spot.

Also, Sehwag ahead of Sunny is a joke of the highest order. Sehwag, as good as he is, isn't fit to lace Sunny's boots.
ZodiaC Posted September 28, 2010 Posted September 28, 2010 He was the 12th man. He couldn't dislodge Greg Chappell and Allan Border from the playing 11. Chappel ahead of Ponting.. :WTF:

Bublu Bhuyan Posted September 28, 2010 Posted September 28, 2010 Chappel ahead of Ponting.. :WTF: Chappell was 10 times the batsman Ponting will ever be.
Kumar Posted September 28, 2010 Posted September 28, 2010 Sir Jack Hobbs Sunny Gavaskar Sir Don Bradman Sachin Tendulkar Sir Viv Richards Imran Khan Adam Gilchrist Shane Warne Malcolm Marshall Sydney Barnes Glen McGrath excellent choice! :two_thumbs_up: bit of altering in my though 1.) Gavaskar 2.) Hobbs 3.) bradman 4.) tendulkar 5.) Richards 6.) Sobers 7.) Gilchrist 8.) hadlee 9.) Warne 10.) Akram 11.) Ambrose
zen Posted September 28, 2010 Posted September 28, 2010 Below is my X1: - Gavaskar - Sehwag - Don - Tendulkar - Viv - Sobers - Gilchrist - Hadlee - Warne - Marshall - Lillee Notes: 1. Squeezed Sehwag in for the excitement value he offers 2. Would have prefered Imran or Botham as 2nd all-rounder but cricinfo wouldn't allow me to pick Hadlee purely as a bowler so had to pick Hadlee as the 2nd all-rounder and Lillee as the bowler 3. Richard and Sehwag could bowl off-spin to support Warne if required 4. Sir Garfield Sobers could roll his arm as the 4th seamer 5. Playing Don is like playing two batsmen (in Don's own words, iirc)
punjabi_khota Posted September 28, 2010 Posted September 28, 2010 Also' date=' Sehwag ahead of Sunny is a joke of the highest order. [b']Sehwag, as good as he is, isn't fit to lace Sunny's boots. Chappell was 10 times the batsman Ponting will ever be. :hysterical::hysterical::hysterical: HYPERBOLE MUCH ?
Gunner_Mania Posted September 28, 2010 Posted September 28, 2010 - Gavaskar - Sehwag - Bradman - Tendulkar - Lara - Sobers - Gilchrist - McGrath - Murali - Warne - Wasim I went for what I felt was a balanced team with Sobers as the all rounder atleast 4 left hand bats in Lara, Sobers, Gilchrist and Wasim I went for Wasim & Mcgrath - Left & Right combo Warne & Murali - again off & leg spin combo
Bublu Bhuyan Posted September 28, 2010 Posted September 28, 2010 :hysterical::hysterical::hysterical: HYPERBOLE MUCH ? Exaggerated, maybe. But still true.
thevortex Posted September 28, 2010 Posted September 28, 2010 Virender Sehwag - on the way to being the most influential player for his team-perhaps of all time Barry Richards - Left hander. Ideal touch player to Sehwag's brutalization. Will still score fast. Rahul Dravid - Undisputed leader in conserving one's own wicket and building innings. Sachin Tendulkar - Perhaps the Federer of cricket. Not much explanation needed. Brian Lara - Virtuoso Lara coming after Tendulkar will drive the most resolute bowlers crazy! Imran Khan - Intuitive, intelligent and diversely talented. Lends balance with bat and ball. Adam Gilchrist - The best wicket keeper batsman - as a package. Wasim Akram - The best exponent of swing that ever existed in the game. Shane Warne - Attacking spinner and a decent, brave bat. Curtly Ambrose - Terror by another name! Parsimonious and honourable. Inexorable fast bowler! Michael Holding - Adding fuel to burning fire is the near perfect Rolls Royce of fast bowling!

I hope you are not confusing him with Grahme Pollock.
