Also - are we going to move to Australia Second XI in this thread?
Based on the other votes and mention in this thread I'd be expecting something like this as the building blocks. Would be good to go through and do the whole thing properly though. I'm not sure I'd pick O'Donnell myself.

1 Warner
2 Waugh
3
4 Chappell
5
6
7 O'Donnell
8 Hogg
9 Lillee
10 Bracken
11

He was a quality player (death bowler and very big hitting finisher) but as M Waugh and G Chappell are good bowling options (as is S Waugh if picked), I'd expect a keeper at 7.
It wouldn't surprise me that much if Lehmann was picked as well. I'd pick him ahead of Waugh but even if not I think I'd probably rather have him at 6 and keeper at 7 than keeper at 6 and O'Donnell at 7.

G Chappell was a surprisingly gun ODI bowler whenever he bowled. Turned his arm over in a large percentage of his ODIs too. Genuinely an allrounder in this format.

Whatever it takes!!!
Bevan
Hussey

Warne


And coz I love the left handers being split up in the batting order, I would put Bevan at 5 and Symonds at 6.
