Holy ****, just realised this thread was a selection game 3 pages in. Just thought it was a discussion/name-your-team/Benchy mentions his fav players

Nice edit.

Yeah it's also why it's not quite correct to say that Bevan and Hussey will play the same role - Hussey is a finisher, not a chaser, which is a subtly different thing.

edit: i r good english

Hussey probably the most complete ODI batsman I've watched.

Hayden
Gilchrist
Ponting
Jones
Hussey
Bevan
Some all-rounder
Lee
Warne
Some Bowler
McGrath

 

[Capt Blackadder]

Warne easy

 

[Red]

Righteo, Warne it is.

Let's pick TWO opening bowlers next.

Select two from the following, or anyone else you prefer...

Brett Lee
McGrath
Johnson
McDermott
Bracken
Gillespie
Fleming
Lillee
Alderman
Tait

Will go McGrath and Lee. Lillee (rightly or wrongly) is hurt by playing in an era which was quite bowler-friendly, he'll probably be my 3rd quick.

 

[Slifer]

Lee and Mcgrath for me

 

[adub]

Will go McGrath and Lee. Lillee (rightly or wrongly) is hurt by playing in an era which was quite bowler-friendly, he'll probably be my 3rd quick.

Same. For me Lillee shades Braken for third quick, but Pigeon and Binga first picked.

 

[watson]

McGrath and Lillee - as any Aussie team without Lillee is unthinkable, and Bracken might just get that 3rd seamers spot. Who knows?

 

[Victor Ian]

McGrath and Lee. Sadly I don't know anything about Lillee as the first game I watched him play was his last ODI

 

[Michaelf7777777]

McGrath and Lillee

 

[Camo999]

McGrath and Lillee

Yep, I'll also go for those two.

 

[G.I.Joe]

McGrath and Lee.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Gotta be Mcgrath and Lee. While Lillee has great figures I think the odi game hadn't quite matured yet into the true version which everyone slowly understood how to really play. Lee was genuinely brilliant in the format and was very good right to the end of his career.
