A curiosity of the exercise so far - we're up to position 36, but according to the ICC ratings four of the top 15 highest rated Test batsmen of all time haven't yet been picked.

When Marnus Labuschagne is in the top 15 highest rated Test batsmen of all time after not having even one century away from home, I think it’s fair to say those ratings are useless lol.

 

[The Sean]

Actually I forgot Marnus had reached those heights too - so it's in fact five of the top 16 of all time we haven't chosen (May, Kohli, Hayden, Labuschagne, MoYo).
