All round XI vs Specialist XI? Lets do it

No Bradman. He is a cheat-code.

 

[Prince EWS]

No Bradman. He is a cheat-code.

Imran > Bradman

 

[honestbharani]

Sobers > cricket

 

[Coronis]

No Bradman. He is a cheat-code.

If ya take out the best specialist you gotta take out the best AR. AR can have Gilly though.

 

[Prince EWS]

Sobers > cricket

Imran > Kallisball > Sobers > cricket > Bradman > Kallis > Head > Wade

Hammond/Worrell (depending on where you draw the line)
Kallis

Faulkner/Jadeja
Gilchrist
Miller
Imran
Hadlee
Ashwin/Benaud

Hobbs

Allround XI

Mark Cosgrove
-
Mike Gatting
Inzamam Ul-Haq
Warwick Armstrong
-
Andrew Flintoff (BBL years)
Rakheem Cornwall
-
Ian Austin
Rangana Herath

If some could supply a rotund opener, wicketkeeper and another generously physiqued seamer we can get there

 

[Sunil1z]

Rohit Sharma deserves a place in allround XI

Rory Kleinveldt

 

[trundler]

There was a fat keeper who kept for NSW about a decade ago. Azam Khan is horizontally advanced too.

 

[Red_Ink_Squid]

Mohammad Shahzad could keep.

 

[Sunil1z]

Afghanistan wicket keeper is also good shout.

 

[trundler]

Rohit Sharma
Mark Taylor
David Boon

That's the top 3 imo.

Tbh I feel if we’re going for a true specialist XI it should be a keeper who never scored a century e.g someone like Oldfield or Tallon. I like the teams, Hammond/Worrell is interesting, I was thinking like at least 1 wpm which Hammond would just miss out on. He did bowl ~15 overs a match compared to Worrell at ~23.
