team of explosive powerful hitters 11

You can't just pick 11 batsman, the team has to have a semblance of structual sense.

1. Jayasuria
2. Sehwag
3. Gayle
4. Astle
5. Mcmillan
6. Symonds
7. Dhoni
8. Gilchrist (WK)
9. Afridi
10. Razzaq
11. Kemp

All bases covered.

All bases covered, except you might be in trouble when you come up against anything stronger than the Galapagos Islands u-9 3rd XI.

Yeah, they have good spin bowling, but their seam bowling is missing that player who can reverse swing it.

Yeah I noticed that when they played New South Wales last year, he didn't seem to like Lee bowling those beamers.

Saw him crying to his mommy. His form and whinging reminded me of Graeme Smith.

I think it must have been Smith, it was a good 15 years ago, he used to live in the Galapagos.

All bases covered.

an all time XI of hard hitting batsmen and aggressive bowlers will look like this.

sehwag
trumper
richards
lara
gregory
gilchrist +
botham
kapil dev
marshall (BOWLING SR of 46)
murali (BOWLING SR of 54 - best for a spinner)
donald (BOWLING SR of 46)

Judged purely on strike rate (in the modern era), Waqar and MacGill would get a run in that team ahead of Donald and Murali.
