The post 70s 2nd XI is quite incredible. Pre 70s is incredible too. I'd drop Ramadin and play Roy Gilchrist.

Oh crap I forgot Headley!! F$#k!! Replace Kanhai then and move Headley to 3 and Weekes to 4.

I literally considered him but was hesitant to include such a volatile unruly player. The guy used to deliberately bowl beamers. Not cool !!

We are considering their cricketing ability only, I guess. RC was by all accounts real quick.

1980 3rd test WI v Aust.
Can't imagine a finer XI was ever fielded. It is like an ATG XI.

According to a study done by Sky Sports a couple of years ago, it was the Australian team in this match.

Yeah its probably between early 00’s Aus vs Windies, with the invincibles likely 3rd.
Batting comes out roughly equal (slight edge to Aus imo), but Gilchrist vs Murray as keeper/batsmen is a huge difference. Windies have a higher quality of bowling overall, but Warne being an ATG spinner vs Windies having 0 specialist spinners evens the field somewhat.
tldr: Gilchrist makes it Australia

neither team has an all rounder that will bowl but Gilchrist is an all rounder that can keep no wonder he is the difference as said
