Traditionally someone who put the metal hoops on barrels.

ATG XI of passed away players

Hobbs
Hutton
Bradman
Hammond
Headley
Walcott
Miller
Faulkner
Marshall
O'R'eilly
Barnes

Could slot in Trueman, but wouldn't need 5 ATG bowlers if we consider Miller close to that. Faulkner offers more batting depth.

 

[h_hurricane]

Alive ATG XI to lock horns with them

Gavaskar
Smith
Richards
Tendulkar
Lara
Sobers
Gilchrist
Imran
Hadlee
Warne
Mcgrath

Fixed it

Similar batting depth. But more accomplished WK and more firepower in the pace bowling attack

Similar batting depth ? You need an additional batsman in the league of Botham or Kapil to match the Faulkner-Walcott 11.

Tendulkar
McCullum
Kohli
Kallis
Cronje
Botham
Dhoni+
Klusener
Pollock (c)
Murali
Donald

Struggling for a 5 and 6.

 

[Athlai]

Ian Botham and Hansie IMO.

 

[TheJediBrah]

haha love that Donald and Klusener are both there. Maybe throw Herschelle a spot too as a specialist fielder.

 

[stephen]

Ian Botham and Hansie IMO.

Perfect.

 

[trundler]

Greenidge **** the bed in 3 consecutive finals.

Struggling for a 5 and 6.

Hussey and Healy woud be a better 5 and 6. Dhoni won a WC final with one of the best innings ever chasing. Or you can bat Healy at #9 pushing everyone up the order.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Wtf is Murali doing in there? Put Zaheer in

Hussey had a crap world cup average because he barely got to bat.

Forgetting exactly what Healy did?

Got dominated in 07.
