Alas... I can only think you are joking in suggesting Klusener is fit to wipe the boots of this crew: he's certainly not fit to bowl alongside guys like Hadlee, Ambrose, Wasim and Murali (offering far less than, say, Heath Streak) and with the bat he offered little more than Johnty Rhodes (who I'd rather see included).
Imran Khan stomps on Klusener's case as a bowler, as a batsman and as a captain(though Zaheer might not agree on the last front).
If you think Warne should oust Murali as the spinner I suggest you go look up their respective records: I've no objection to Warne being included but it should be in place of Pollock or Hadlee, not Murali. |
I chose Klusener as i liked the idea of a slogger who can bowl a few overs, as a player i admit he's not in that class! To be honest a 1970's Botham would be better than Klusener.
I would say theres not much in it between Murali and Warne, but Murali has been tonked for 70+runs a few times and i still cant accept his action, plus i believe warne would make a good captain

. I would still like Bevan in for Zaheer, you always need smeone like him at no 6 (England take note!)
