Which way are you going for the keeper?
Given no Australian keepers scored a century until Marsh and the proliferation of all-rounders you have already I'd go with a specialist keeper even if he bats #11. 8 is way too low for Miller imho.

Others who would be great inclusions:
Macartney
J.Gregory
Noble
O'Reilly
Spofforth
Blackham

If you don't want to take this seriously that's fine but I'd prefer it if people did. Want these teams to be genuine and accurate as a depiction of CW's greatest ODI sides.
Well he is a proven drug cheat. Got banned from a world cup for it, so morally not voting for a cheat is fine.

My point wasn't you have to vote for Warne. It was we don't really want people voting for O'Keefe when he's never played an ODI in an ODI ATG team.

Hussey is a gun but I like him at 6 better. Can't ignore Bevan's record. The bloke was amazing.

Please select a number 6 from the following players (or another if you wish)….

Andrew Symonds
Steve Waugh
Mike Hussey
Glenn Maxwell
Simon O'Donnell
Shane Watson
Michael Clarke

What happens here will have bearing on who is selected at 7 regarding having enough bowling.

Why isn't TOTAB in the reckoning here for number six? Scandalous.

More than happy for someone to vote for AB. Actually never thought he was a great ODI bat, certainly not as great as he was as a test bat.

One thing I will say is that he was a very good fielder in ODIs from memory. That left arm from mid-wicket was like a canon.
