Would have Botham as the 4th all rounder in that list. A true matchwinner. Reckon Aubrey Faulkner is one of the most criminally underrated all rounders though. Probably because not many people have heard of him but he looked a pretty handy cricketer judging from the stats. Averages 40 with...

Surely you would want to go with Healy then? He would be a much better keeper of spin, considering he had to keep to Warne for most of his career.

Has to be up there, 300 odd wickets at an average of 30 on covered wickets is a pretty good effort. Doubt there's many fingerspinners with a significantly better record who played in the covered wicket era.

If Malik can lock his position in the side it should be him. Only lost the captaincy because he couldn't keep his place in the side as a batsman, nothing wrong with his captaincy, or at least did easily the best job compared to all of Pakistan's other recent captains.

To be fair to Bangladesh, Sehwag and Gambhir have been smashing much better bowling attacks than the Bangladeshi one around recently. Both in great form atm.

Collingwood's catch of Hayden in that one day international in 2005 would have to be the one that sticks in my mind the most.

Brian's 500 occurred in the 90s

tbh the aim for dropping kamran was to get a keeper who could actually catch rather than for the lack of runs.

Don't think its unreasonable to think that he will get as many wickets as Wasim. Atm he's taking 4.5 wickets per match which would mean he will overtake Wasim's record by the time he plays 80-90 tests if he keeps going at this rate. Doubt he'll end up nearly as good a bowler as Wasim though.

Reckon AB de villiers and Cook will be the standout batsmen of the decade. Both of them are already 25 and have played over 50 test matches with decent records to boot. They can only improve in the next couple of years at least.

Cairns fairly easily. Much better batsman then Streak
