I would like to go slightly unconventional here and pick AB De Villiers as the Wicketkeeper-Batsman at number 6, and then pick Procter, Pollock and Tayfield for the rest of the positions. Tayfield covers the spin option, and I think Faulkner does not add that much value to the side as either Procter or Pollock. This way, we have 4 top notch pacers, which I realize may be a little over the top, especially with Kallis in the side, but it's still awesome.

Yes it is a 'little over the top' because Kallis bowls in the mid 130s therefore the team already has 4 quick bowlers all capable of taking wickets. The skill of Kallis justifies the inclusion of Faulkner even more.

Kallis is the best 5th bowler you'd need IMO, and is a better allrounder than Faulkner. Better to have a really daunting batting lineup right up to six and still pick the 4 really excellent bowlers (Pollock and Tayfield would be my other 2 bowlers).

Interesting. I'm taking the same train of thought except I think it justifies another batsman more.

I'd include Faulkner on rank turners.
