    Aus&WI combined XI vs Subcontient XI vs Rest Of The World XI

    But I don't think you can compare leading a novelty franchise who get together for 6 weeks a year with captaining a national team.

    Time to address my lack of openers, and at this stage unlikely to do better than Gordan Greenidge (7558 @ 44.72, against some great bowlers) - one of the keystones of the great WIs sides. Greenidge - Weekes Jayawardene Donnelly Imran Kapil Dev - Donald O'Reilly Barnes Surprised he lasted this...

    IPL Corruption and Match-Fixing Investigations

    Isn't it wonderful that cricket now has its own parasite petty despot in the mold of Bernie Ecclestone.

    *Official* Australia vs Pakistan in England

    As if the PCB would let a small thing like someone being confined in a cell on the other side of the planet stop them from selecting someone.

    Aus&WI combined XI vs Subcontient XI vs Rest Of The World XI

    Well happily, he's in this team as well, so his batting will help him here as well. That argument can be made for every player in this team - Warne's done well when he's captained because he's had Warne in his team. Bradman was a meticulous planner, he ensured that people stuck to the plan...

    Aus&WI combined XI vs Subcontient XI vs Rest Of The World XI

    Onfield stuff is only one part of a captain's role. If Warne ever had been made captain, I'm pretty certain we would have had disaffected players, not to mention him having to resign in disgrace when he embarrassed himself again.

    Aus&WI combined XI vs Subcontient XI vs Rest Of The World XI

    Bradman was a pretty successful captain actually - massive winning percentage. In a team of massive stars and personalities, his status as clearly the best player would also reinforce him status. Warne, IMO, has the brains to be a good on-field captain, but is too immature a person to be a...

    Yeah, Bradman*, imo.

    Aus&WI combined XI vs Subcontient XI vs Rest Of The World XI

    Yeah, there's not a lot of logic to it. Previously, when we've rated each countries all-time XIs, WI and Aus were considered clearly the two best. That said, it's his thing, so whatever he wants.

    Aus&WI combined XI vs Subcontient XI vs Rest Of The World XI

    A team of Simpson Morris Bradman Richards Chappell Sobers Gilchrist Warne Marshall Ambrose Lillee/McGrath Would be any other XI you cared to assemble from anywhere.

    You can pick now Himannv - it's been more than 12 hours since Zinzan went.
