ICC Super Series squads

The kit looks like crap. I thought that some minnows had bad kits but this is as bad as it gets. The kit really does needs more colour. The blue is way too boring.
 
Here are the squads and I am not happy about this: :mad

World XI Test squad Graeme Smith (capt), Virender Sehwag, Rahul Dravid (vc), Sachin Tendulkar, Brian Lara, Jacques Kallis, Andrew Flintoff, Shaun Pollock, Mark Boucher, Steve Harmison, Shoaib Akhtar, Muttiah Muralitharan, Daniel Vettori.

World XI ODI squad Virender Sehwag, Sachin Tendulkar (vc), Jacques Kallis, Brian Lara, Kevin Pietersen, Herschelle Gibbs, Andrew Flintoff, Shaun Pollock (capt), Kumar Sangakkara, Shahid Afridi, Shoaib Akhtar, Makhaya Ntini, Muttiah Muralitharan, Daniel Vettori.
 
I think the squads are pretty good. Not many Pakistanis in there though.
Also I am not happy with Sehwag being picked for the ODI squad. I hope Herschelle Gibbs and Sachin Tendulkar opens.
 
No real suprises in the squads although I would liked to have seen Makhaya Ntini in the test side for Harmison.
 
Why isn't dravid in the odi squad? , dravid is right now the best batsmen in the world , and has consistancy . Dravids a better player than most nealrey all the guys in the odi squad. Inzi misses out .
 
Talk of the day is that Inzamam-ul-Haq is missing from the squads. Although he had a terrific year so far and was an option of captaining these sides. Yeah, Dravid is reliable person, even in ODI's.

Surprised to see Boucher ahead of Sangakarra. Even Ntini's inclusion surprises me.
 
Dont know about Rahul Dravid, but I think Inzy missed out as he was competing with Jacques Kallis, Brian Lara and Kevin Pietersen for a place in the middle order.

How does Ntini's inclusion suprise anyone? He is a class act. Although Harmison was a better choice for the tests, and good to see the selectors thinking the same.

In the end, just like I said in case of the Africa vs Asia series, this Super Series means little to me. No one is gonna feel that bad if you are on the losing side.
 
How come Afridi got selected? This is a joke honestly. When you've got Sehwag or Pieterson whats the need of Afridi? He will most probably screw things up for the ODI XI (IF he plays).
