I'll leave out the obvious retort and just say "Sarwan?".

Marsh would take it easy, IMHO no contest there.

I'd keep Sachin, Murali, Pollock and Flintoff and Harmison is in great form but I would add Kallis, Anderson and Akhter. I wouldn't have Lara but the new young Windies player who is making waves. And I would probably take Ntini for a run as well. You need not forget that one of the reasons England has had such a brilliant year is due to their bowlers. You have to even out the top batters with some bowling potential. Add a good captain, like Flemming and you have a fantastic team.

Cool

Sorry about the spelling

1)Stepehen Fleming (c): Best captin in the world and a good bat as well
2)Sehwag: Take the attack to Australia
3)Dravid: Excelent record against Australia (although against a weak attack)
4)Tendulka: Need I say more
5)Flintoff: Good alrounder
6)Sangakara (wk): Best wicket keeper batsmen in the world aside from gilly)
7)Chaminda Vass: Most underated bowler in the world, suffers from the sri lankan pitches
8)Steve Harmison: Im iffy about this one but he is a good bowler
9)Pathan: Good solid swing bowler
10)Nitini: Love this guy
11) Murali: he chucks but he chucks well

This side seems a bowler heavy and a batsman light to me. Personally I would drop Ntini or Pathan to be replaced by someone to bat at 5 (Lara or Kallis?).

Wink

Thinking about it now your probebly right. Wouldent have Lara though, he either bats high or not at all. Kalis sounds good.

Kallis is a good all-rounder, I like these players. Another possibility for me is Styris, once again an excellent all-rounder. But as Kallis is such a strong batsman I would probably keep Ntini. Not only is he a fantastic bowler but he boosts team morale and he's such a funny guy.
