Haha, I like the thought of doing it this way.

1. Mathew Sinclair
2. Shane Watson
3. Jacques Kallis
4. Jason Krejza
5. James Anderson

Sinclair can keep wickets, Watto's picked as a batsman.

Just imagine how much funner my team would be. Jeets being the man, Shakib being awesome, Ryder being an icon, Gayle being cool and McCullum playing the game so hard it makes him bleed.

Dave Mohammed

That's it. Would bowl the opposition 5 a side team out in 5 balls, removing the need for another bowler. Then he'd knock off the winning run with a first ball 6, removing the need for any other batsman, or even a guy at the other end for running.

1. Don Bradman

Really wanted to go with Viv at #2, but Sobers gives me the spin option with just as good batting.
