So there we have it—Smith, Hayden, Ponting, Dravid, Yousuf, Kallis, Gilchrist, Flintoff, Warne, McGrath and Muralitharan.
Only New Zealand and the West Indies of the major test playing nations have not been represented, but that is hardly surprising given their statistics this decade.
There are five Australians—again not surprising. I am certain that this will cause debate, but for what it is worth, my second XI would be:
Sehwag
Langer
Tendulkar
Lara
Inzamam-ul-Haq
Jayawadene (c)
Sangakkara (wk)
Pollock
Lee
Ntini
Kumble
I would have no doubt that this side would give the first XI a good game.
Next time: The ODI XI of the decade. Guaranteed to include more Indians, less Australians, and more than likely one less England player.
