Made of glass XI:

Shane Watson
Matthew Elliot
Vijay Shankar
Michael Clarke
AB De Villiers
Callum Ferguson
Tim Paine+
Steve O'Keefe
James Pattinson
Ian Bishop
Shane Bond (c)

Obviously fast bowlers are more injury prone than others and this is Australia-centric due to me following them more closely. Batsmen were hard to find. Tim Paine with his broken fingers slotted in nicely as keeper.

KL Rahul has had a short career so far but the number of injuries he's suffered is pretty ridiculous, especially for a batsman

Is it a foregone conclusion that the top 6 of ATG ODI XI would be...

Tendulkar
Gilchrist
Viv Richards
Kohli
AB de Viliers
Dhoni

?

We can round it off with Shaun Pollack, Akram, Warne, Garner and McGrath.

Personally, I will take Jayasuriya and some will take Bevan instead of Dhoni/Pollock but yes, this should be the ATG ODI team.

Not at all. With Dhoni in the side there is absolutely no need for Gilchrist.

ATG ODI XI batting order comes down to one question - where are we playing?

In the SC:
Jayasuria
Tendulkar
Richards
Kohli
ABDV
Dhoni

Outside the SC:
Gilchrist
Tendulkar
Ponting
Richards
ABDV
Bevan

IMO of course.

I think you should go with Jaya/Dhoni or Gilchrist/Bevan. The former has a decent bowler and the latter has better batting outside the subcontinent.

Ponting vs Kholi is a tough one though. Ponting was so very excellent for so many years and lead his team to two world cup wins. So he gets the nod outside the SC. Kholi's subcontinent record is just too immense to ignore.
