1) Donald
Kallis with the ball > with the bat in England. Also England have Botham as a star all rounder, so what matters is a spearhead better or par with Botham to take care of the bowling attack.

2) Warne
1990s South Africa have Pollock and Kallis. What matters is they didn’t had a quality spinner after Tayfield till Maharaj, so the King of Spin + Warne averages 24 in South Africa.

3) Hadlee
Hadlee averages 17 in Australia! Case closed. Moreover since Australia have Cummins the role of Imran as a captain isn’t necessary.

4) Pollock
Statistically Pollock is far superior in West Indies, although he batted at No.6 and 7 less than Botham, which were the positions West Indies lacked.

Botham would be picked as an AR since they have better pacers than Pollock.

Would 80s England take Donald or Kallis?

Tough one, but Donald.

Donald, Beef, Willis and Dilley would be a heck of bowling attack, but Kallis and Beef in the same team would allow for a seriously deep batting line up.

Would 90s SA take Sobers or Warne?

Warne. SA had Kallis, McMillan and Pollack so plenty of allrounders

Would current Australia take Hadlee or Imran Khan?

Imran Khan. His batting is good enough to still pick the 4 other regular bowlers.

Would 80s WI take Pollock or Botham?

Botham. His batting would allow 4 other bowling picks too.

Which of these players would the teams accept?

Would 80s England take Donald or Kallis?

Would 90s SA take Sobers or Warne?

Would current Australia take Hadlee or Imran Khan?

Would 80s WI take Pollock or Botham?

Donald, he would lead the attack. England's hot and cold pace attack will suddenly become way more effective.
Warne. Any spinner of great quality will walk in to that side, Never mind Murali or Warne, Even Kumble, Saqlain, Swann, Ajmal, Herath all of them will be in. Sobers can bowl spin, but it never was his strongest suit.
Imran. Hadlee is very similar to Cummins and Hazelwood. Imran offers a distinctly different flavor of fast bowling.
Pollock. WI never had three pacemen on form, other than for few years. Pollock had a stellar career, very consistent over a long time. Ideal for a team which had fast bowlers coming an going frequently in the 3rd and 4th positions. With his batting he is a dead set #7 over the keepers WI had those days. Botham had a hot and cold career. WI don't need that. They had matchwinners all the way. They lacked a very consistent player.
