With some help form the icc rankings http://www.reliancemobileiccrankings.com/
My team is...
Sehwag
Gambir
Amla
Tendulkar
Clarke
Kallis
Sangakkara (wc)
Afridi
Johnson
Swann
Steyn

I was going to pick Asif but his two steroid test failures meant he was rulled out and I went for Afridi because he is an extraordinary cricketer

I thought long and hard about putting him in my team - he is 3 in the world currently. who from my team above would you replace him with?

Sorry J-Ridd - I have a soft spot for the madness that is and surrounds Afridi!! he is my personal pick, just as others have their own favourite players. My team is a but dull without him

I'd have taken out Clarke and put Jayawardena in. I'd also take Murali over Swann any day. Graeme Smith over Sehwag too perhaps :)

humm. Sehwag, the number one player in the world, Wisden Cricketer of the year for the second time or the number 9 player in the world. not for me. Clarke for Jayawdena is a reasonable call. I think Murali chucks it so is ineligible for my team.

I think Sachin should be in everyone's team.. Not sure how people justify not having him in their team..
