Cricinfo seems to be surprisingly Indian based, so there's probably biasness in there. Plus, he's overrated due to past exploits.Ponting's totally deserved for mine...struggling to see why Tendulkar's so high though...has he even been one of the top 4 batsmen of the decade? (not counting anything pre 2000).

Gilchrist is in a lot of people's all-time XIs as a keeper-batsman and he only played 5 tests before 2000. Most of Murali's best efforts came after 2000 too of course, but Gilchrist played his entire career in the 2000s and it's not hard to see why people would consider him one of the best players of the decade.How come Gilchrist selected over Murali?
