Batting looks a bit weak if Dhoni is coming in at number 5 (even though Dhoni is an awesome ODI batsman but he should be lower down the order at 6 or 7)

Kallis too is a good choice for the all-rounder's spot except that we might find his batting too slow.

Must say that Ponting is getting seriously underrated for some reason. Not entirely sure what more he could do to get in the team over the course of his career. One of the first picked for mine.

He has to bat at 3-5 positions. In that positions he'll get some tough challenge with Richards, Tendulkar, Bevan, Lara, Jones etc. So he's not a unanimous choice,
 

hang on

State Vice-Captain
making quite a few teams from the looks of it, spark. given that he is competing with gilchrist, tendulkar, richards, lara, jones, abbas, bevan, dhoni inter alia for a batting spot, his selection cannot quite be a done deal. among that awesome lot, only richards, tendulkar and bevan are shoo ins. in my 'umble.

Not quite as good as eleven Kyle Mills's, but it's close.

my team bats deep and has a good mix of agression and caution.
Batsman Imran's "caution" at no. 8 during over no. 49 might not be too handy :p

It might hurt team morale too if an aggressive batsman is in the non-striker's end waiting for strike from the captain for too long during that time ...
