All Time Australian XI game

There's no way on earth in my opinion that Monty Noble doesn't belong at least in Australia's fourth XI (I'd have him a team or two higher), so one of the spots has to be his. Johnston edging out McDermott for the other.

Monty Noble
Bill Johnston

As for 'keepers, it shows how blessed Australia has been that we've now selected four elevens and still not found a place for any of Blackham, Tallon or Grout.

Jack Blackham

Noble

I think the tail might be a tad long, but I feel we need another pacer and we already have a leggie so I didn't go for Armstrong.

Grout

next questions
- Name your Aus C captain.

- Name 3 Aus D bowlers(in the unlikely event all 3 are spinners, only the first 2 will count plus first pacer)

- Pick the Australia D numbers 3 and 4 batsman

This team is more spoiled for captaincy choice than any I think I've ever seen - Benaud, Noble and Woodfull all rank among Australia's greatest ever leaders of men. I think Richie will win this, but I'm casting a vote for Noble.

Trumble, Thommo and McDermott as the three bowlers.

Chappelli and Waughm at 3/4.

Teuton and Sean, you can pick another bowler if you like. Jeff Thomson made Australia B.
