Who would be your number 3 in your test team?

Poontang. Only attacking option among the three and he was better at his peak anyway even if we don't take that aggressive factor into discussion.

Not getting old at all, that.

Ponting pretty easily by the criteria given, which are quite different from 'as an overall cricketer' or what have you.

Who gives a **** if it is getting old? Love that nickname personally.

From the end of '01 till Ashes 06'07 the Punter was ave 65-70 if not more.
Remember the innings of intent,Brisbane '06?

Chimpy, pretty easily.

I like an attacking no 3. And although the others are mighty fine players, at his peak Poontang was better than them, and probably the best batsman I've seen.

 

[morgieb]

Ponting, easily.

Kallis isn't a number 3.

If I am remember correctly, Kallis has batted at number 3 for a large part of his career.

Ah finally..Thanks for realizing that

If I am remember correctly, Kallis has batted at number 3 for a large part of his career.

3335 @ 49.77 [ 9 ton ]

At No.4 he has scored 7183 @ 62.46 [ 26 tons ]

He prefers batting at No.4 but yeah still I want him to be my No.3

Given that Kallis has spent the majority of his career at 4 not 3. I would pick Ponting. Easily a better player than Dravid, even when both were at their peaks.
