??? Border averages significantly more away than at home.

Yeah but he didn’t play as many matches as Cook I’m afraid.

I thought it was border and waugh with most tests for australia, rather than ponting waugh. I always get that wrong.
The men's Test XI of the last 25 years
No Dravid, Ambrose or Cook. Who makes the cut then?
Cricinfo Test team for 25 years 1993-2017. Several inclusions and exclusions feature in this and other recent threads.
Team: Hayden, Sehwag, Ponting, Tendulkar, Lara, Kallis, Gilchrist, Wasim Akram, Warne, Muralitharan, McGrath.
Judges: Ian Chappell, John Wright, Sanjay Manjrekar, Dav Whatmore, Mark Nicholas. Nine of the team received four or all five votes. Hayden beat Cook on a tie break.
Among exclusions: Sangakkara, Dravid, Steve Smith, Graeme Smith, de Villiers, Ambrose, Steyn, Anderson, Donald.

That team is fine other than in practice for a match you'd want Steyn and be forced to pick between Warne and Murali.The men's Test XI of the last 25 years

Wasim over ambrose becoz of his batting I guess.

Considering modern day cricket is pretty much 3 formats , I think Josh Hazlewood is very underrated ..
He's won 3 World Cups with Australia,
since 2019 he's taken 111 test wickets at 21.90

I hope Migara doesn't see that they picked Murali at 11, below McGrath.

How about?
G Smith
Dravid (he'd be fine opening)
Sanga
S Smith
S. Waugh (c)
Flower (wk) - tough on Healy, but no Warne and want the batting and a 5th bowler
Shakib/Cairns ?
S. Pollock
Kumble
Steyn
Ambrose

Ashwin - Jadeja for Shakib- Kumble personally. Rest is pretty spot on.
Although Smith had those 2 monster series in 2017, Ponting IMO still had a good enough case to be included over him till then

They would be now (2024), but not in 2017.
