One player you wish he had played for your team?

Imran Khan. Watched very end of his career so probably cheating a bit. Did well in conditions that India would play most cricket in as well as everywhere else. Was an all rounder too and a great leader. Who knows if we had Imran, we might have produced our own Wasim and Waqar.

Oddly enough, I think Pakistan would benefit from having a Kohli figure in the team. Not only do we need batting star power but the team responds best when you have an aggressive captain who the others are slightly intimidated by to maintain discipline and fitness. We haven't had an aggressive captain really since Wasim. Babar is not assertive enough for my liking.

Otherwise, Pakistan desperately need a class opener since Anwar retired. I think Alistair Cook would have been ideal as an all-conditions dependable player.

If we're going for same era, then Gilly in the team in the late 90s would've been amazing.

And since he would be in our team he wouldn't have ****ed us in Hobart.

Mitchell Johnson - he lived at Tweed Heads for a while and would have been very handy at the South Tweed Colts. Mind you, I think most of our wins would have ended up being by forfeit.

Somebody like Brian Lara who could make big hundreds, or Steve Waugh, who could have brought mental toughness to the side once Imran retired.

The normal awards that everyone else has
Australia could probably use Graeme Smith or Ali Cook to partner Warner atm.

Any second opener
Richardson
Lara
Chanders
Hooper
Jacobs
Ambrose
Walsh

So basically replace anyone in the current WI XI except for Roach and Holder. And using the most recent players to fill those voids. Damn shame that as bad as Hooper was, even he would be a superstar in the current rabble that we have.
