    Take into account playing on uncovered wickets, Grace's record was extraordinary, he completely dominated his era and must rank with Bradman and Sobers for relative dominance.

    I think Sunilz personal vendetta on a ATG should be enough for Healy being in

    Establishing the best decade for cricket: Finding the ATG XI from 12 decades of test cricket - then having a KO tourney to decide the best

    Yes as you said 'small issue', the five batsman and the all rounder are there to make the runs, there is one spot only for the keeper, Flower's keeping ability doesn't warrant selection over what Healy achieved in the 90s and the batting difference is inconsequential to this team

    Establishing the best decade for cricket: Finding the ATG XI from 12 decades of test cricket - then having a KO tourney to decide the best

    An ATG keeper in Healy 102 tests 354 dismissals plus and nearly 4000 runs is going to miss here, this is a team of the decade, so the best keeper should get the nod, Flower's record just doesn't stack up on pure stats

    Establishing the best decade for cricket: Finding the ATG XI from 12 decades of test cricket - then having a KO tourney to decide the best

    Clearly the best keeper in the 90s and handy bat as well. Maybe it's a young Kallis or Chris Cairns for the all rounder one may be batting too low and the either too high?..or Pollock or Akram can cover this and add an extra batter

    Establishing the best decade for cricket: Finding the ATG XI from 12 decades of test cricket - then having a KO tourney to decide the best

    Botham averaged 34 and Kapil Dev 31, think Imran with 44 can bat at six, since Kanhai somehow batted at five in the 60s team
