    If you could pick...

    To bat: Boycott, since hes the only one who could block for all eternity. And to liven things up at the other end, we better have Viv Richards. Bowling, we need some contrasting styles. First, Bishen Bedi. Not quite the greatest spin bowler ever, but certainly the one with the most beautiful...
