I can't agree with Richards and Ambrose being 1st picked in best of ODI teams, again different era's give us different opinions I reckon.


Respect your opinion TDK but Viv and Curtly would be 2 of my 1st picked in any format in my lifetime in the last 40 years. Gilchrist is another, far from the best keeper but was solid enough and his batting put him a fair way ahead of Dujon and others. Always rated Alec Stewart.


I loved watching Viv bat in any format.
Imagine him playing the T20 format these days.
No ground would be big enough for him.[/quote]

Viv was the dynamo of his era, Kohli is that now. But if I'd have to decide between them it would be Viv every day. A genius.[/quote]

Agreed.

Good team.
I’d leave Lehman out and find a spot for Hussey or Hayden.
What about Steve Smith?
His record is pretty good.

All would be good inclusions. Lehmann gets my nod for:
A. South Australian
B. Plays spin very well
C. Game changer
D. Can bowl in a clinch
E. He is not Steve Smith
