I would pick Azhar.

Cos even if the game was going bad, he could buy our way out of it.

This.

Imran for Pakistan
Warne for Australia
Hadlee for NZ
Kapil for India
Murali for SL
Lloyd for WI
Ian Salisbury for Eng
Not sure about SA

Probably Murali. Feels strange saying it considering he retired not that long ago. We'll miss him.

On another note, surprised not to see to many Bradman calls. Sobers for WI I suppose.

Sobers would be another Brian Lara for the WI.

WI need another Clive Lloyd or Frank Worrell. People who can build teams

Bradman for whoever bats 6. Middle order shuffles along one.

Barring that, McGrath/Warne.

As an Australian fan there are so many greats to pick from but I would go for Border, think our current side needs a no-nonsense guy like him who can help rebuild a strong side full of resilient individuals and of course we could also do with a batsman like him in our ranks.

Why would you pick a specialist bat that isn't Bradman?

Given the predicament of our side I think we need a good leader like AB, in the past he built an Australian side pretty much from scratch under his leadership which laid the foundation for Australian dominance of international cricket for the next couple of decades, also as a batsman he is an Australian great so he without doubt would be great addition to the current Australian side.

While Hadlee, Crowe and Bond would be miles ahead of anyone else you'd have to go for Hadlee.

SA would surely be Donald - their batting is incredible as it is, they just need someone to back up Steyn.
