G'day Mike - hope you are well.

Test, ODI or T20? (we probably started watching at a similar time - no T20 back then, but I do recall one dayers had begun).

I suspect your 11 would not be beaten.... unless we bring in the guys from before our viewing time.

It was pretty hard and I couldn't fit in an Englishman or New Zealander so I made it a squad of 15:

1) Desmond Haynes
2) Mathew Hayden
3) Ricki Ponting
4) Sachin Tendulka
5) Brian Lara
6) Jacques Kallis
7) Adam Gilchrist
8) Shane Warne
9) Wasim Akram
10) Curtly Ambrose
11) Glen MacGrath

Rest of the squad
12) Ian Botham
13) Steve Smith
14) Richard Hadley
15) Denis Lillee

What would your squad of 15 look like?
