[Scarves]

If Debut was 70's onwards... Sunil Gavaskar Greg Chappell - Eh he can open if he wants Ricky Ponting Brian Lara Sachin Tendulkar Viv Richards Jacques Kallis Ian Healy Shane Warne Curtly Ambrose Glenn McGrath Too easy, make it 90's onwards or something. Left out Marshall because I want Ambrose to hurt people.

only three full time bowlers?

Kallis is basically a full time bowler, these 4 can get wickets easily.

Why Healy ahead of Gilchrist?

Why Healy ahead of Gilchrist?

Batting is good enough and Healy is a better keeper (not batsman)

:poink: You selected 16 men instead of 11.

[hhhhdmt]

Another possible xi: 1. Greenidge 2. Graeme Smith 3. Ponting 4. Allan Border 5. Jacques Kallic 6. Ab De Villiers 7. Richard Hadlee 8. Waqar Younis 9. Michael Holding 10. Allan Donald 11. Muttiah This would be a great team too, and i can still think of 20-30 great players that missed out

:poink: You selected 16 men instead of 11.

he meant 5 of them would be reserve players

[express bowling]

he meant 5 of them would be reserve players

Exactly. Hence the gap.

Last time I checked, I wrongly counted 11 as 10 or 12 ...... not 16. :cantstop:
