Lol you better be joking. Marshall, Holding, Garner, Ambrose in England are unfair. As is the batting.

It's not a pace quarter.

It's Marshall, Holding, Garner, Gibbs, Sobers as bowlers vs McGrath, Lillee, Miller, Warne and OReilly.

Why do you think WI are superior?

If the teams are to play solely in England, then:

Aus:

Bill Ponsford
Arthur Morris
Charlie MaCartney
Steve Smith
Allan Border*
Steve Waugh
Adam Gilchrist+
Shane Warne
Dennis Lillee
Glenn McGrath
Terry Aldermann


The 4th MOB was very tough to name given none of Aussie ATG trio were spectacular particularly there, and Trumper's heroics were from mostly FC. So went with MaCartney, who either was a very good batsman or a very good bowler, and at times quite good both, in his English tours, to provide mostly that 5th bowler. Bardsley, Taylor, Simpson, Barnes all were considered, especially Simpson, but his English highs is mostly a 311 in a flat bed.



WI:

Gordon Greenidge
Roy Fredericks
George Headley
Viv Richards*
Garry Sobers
Shivnarine Chanderpaul
Jeff Dujon+
Malcolm Marshall
Curtly Ambrose
Michael Holding
Joel Garner


Gibbs, Ramadhin and Roberts all were quite unlucky, and feel there's atleast a few people who can physically Assault me for taking Shiv ahead of Lara, not that I myself am sure.

I actually am in the "Chanderpaul is too disrespected in CW" camp. But taking him over Lara in England is worse.
