AB de Villiers ahead of Trott IMO.

ABD for Mahela, Steyn for Gul.
Plops Champion! Tournaments Won: 2Reckon no one would have predicted Southee to be in there pre-WC. Everyone else (including RTD to some extent) was never really going to stretch anyones imagination.
Direbirds FTW!

Not sure about Jonathan Trott either. Not the most fashionable of players, especially in ODIs, which quite often leads to his contribution being undervalued.

Yeah, played well in Australia for damn sure, but still think a lot of people would have expected an Amla, for example, to outperform him.
India

AWTA.
But if we have to include other players - I'd have to go with
T. Dilshan
S. Tendulkar
K. Sangakkara (k)
A. De Villiers
Y. Singh
R. ten Doeschate
S. Afridi
R, Peterson
T. Southee
Z. Khan
I. Tahir
Plethora of bowling options (5 bpnafide spinning options and 3 pacers) and whilst batting looks a little light, I'd expect this team to defend most totals based on their WC form.
Not much between these teams, seems to be a consensus over about 15 or so players. Two to have been overlooked so far would be Brett Lee and Ross Taylor.
Dilshan
Tendulkar
Trott
Sangakkara
Jayawardene
Yuvraj
Ten Doeschate
Afridi
Malinga
Zaheer
Tahir
De Villiers
Taylor
Lee
Southee
Peterson
Maybe we wouldn't be so quick to fill buckets with filth if we knew they had a soul. Or maybe that's what they're into. Ain't no way to get inside a bucket's mind.
Tilakaratne Dilshan
Sachin Tendulkar
Gautham Gambhir
Kumar Sangakkara
Yuvraj Singh
AB de Villiers
Shahid Afridi
Imran Tahir
Zaheer Khan
Umar Gul
Tim Southee
RIP Craigos. Owe you a beer.:(

4-0; 5-0; 4-0; 3-0; 4-0
Banter is a two way street. Deal with it.
Will take Blaze's XI with just one change - Malinga for Gul.
ICC team has been announced. Some questionable selctions to say the least.
Tendulkar
Dilshan
Sangakkara ( Wk /Capt )
Jayawardena
De Villiers
Yuvraj
Watson
Afridi
Steyn
Zaheer
Murali
12th: Southee
Steyn and Murali had a couple of excellent spells but were nowhere near their best, I'd have rated Malinga, Southee, Lee, Tahir and Peterson's performances higher. Moving Watson out of position only to supplant Ten Doeschate or another batsman has to be the weirdest call.
