How strong is Australia's Second ATG XI?

The normal awards that everyone else has
Hayden maybe but Waugh absolutely deserves to be there. Don't see how Mccabe can make it ahead of him.
It’s not a hill I’d die in. Waugh was an out and out great.

But so was McCabe.

“In the First Test of the 1938 tour of England, McCabe played what was regarded as his greatest innings, scoring 232 in four hours, including his last 72 in 28 minutes. Bradman regarded the innings as the greatest batting he ever saw.”

I think we all agree that McCabe was a player of great innings, but I think you’re overrating him a bit based on that.

I mean that's fine but Waugh was the no.1 batsmen in the world for much of the 90s. Would even put Clarke ahead of Mccabe.

Go for your life. That’s the beauty of selecting XIs you like
