Chanderpaul?? 2 Spinners?? AB as keeper? Quality at everything he does but lets wait a year with him with the gloves before we talk about him as a keeper till then Sangakarra.
Yep, the ten players picked and wondering why he couldn't find room for a keeper bit made me giggle. No Clarke. Graeme Swann. What a cricket guru this bloke is.
Realise endless permutations possible but to start ball rolling, here's one possible World Test XI (not limited overs) at the moment:
1. A. Cook (Eng)
2. G. Smith (RSA)
3. H. Amla (RSA)
4. J. Trott (Eng)
5. J. Kallis (RSA)
7. M. Hussey (Aus)
8. G Swann (Eng)
9. S Ajmal (Pak)
10. D.Steyn (RSA)
11. J. Anderson (Eng)
12th man Take your pick from numerous possibilities.
Nugget you Donkey you need to do some research pal.
Cook is avg 40 this calendar season, Trott is avg 35. Anderson is struggling n swann has been getting hammered n the poms have played 9 test this year n everyone else is 6 at the most.

who is the donkey, spending hours looking up averages? if sides were picked on averages alone hayden would have been picked a couple of years before he was and ponting and others would have been dropped during lean trots.
i posted my side on a spontaneous whim (all of 60-90 seconds) to start a new tread because others were getting boring. appears you and the other nincompoop didn\t read my preface.
post your sides instead if nitpicking.
beaver, remember a dockey is massively hung. better than a useless self-titled rodent.
I don't have to name any side. You're the one who made the topic and showed your obvious lack of intellect by posting a world X1 consisting of ten players. Don't blame me because your a half wit, champ. Hahaha
