Boycott over Sutcliffe? Shoot me now.
It's not that crazy, I'll have to dig it up, but I remember reading how much Sutcliffe used the LBW rule to his advantage. It was within the rules of the game so fine. I just don't think there's that much of a difference between the likes of Boycott and Sutcliffe

The batters are perfect.

Just throw Vaas out. And bring Mitchell Johnson in.

Not sure if I have done this before, but wrote a post in another thread regarding Sobers and Kallis and was thinking how many genuine top tier batsmen were also top tier slip fielders.

Off the top of my head and in some order of combined skill.

Garry Sobers
Greg Chappell
Wally Hammond
Brian Lara
Ricky Ponting
Barry Richards

A.B. de Villiers
Jaques Kallis
Everton Weekes
Bobby Simpson
Neil Harvey
Clive Lloyd
Bruce Mitchell
Viv Richards
Matthew Hayden
Rahul Dravid

Who am I forgetting who was legitimately great in both fields. Who should I have left out?
