IF YOU COULD PICK A TEAM FROM THE WHOLE WORLD TO WIN CUP

I want to see what 11 and then 4 reserves people would select from the whole world to enter the world cup.

This team is a late inclusion and any current players ( NO WARNE) from anywhere in the world can be selected.

Injured players like symonds, oram and lee are to be considered fit for the purpose of the excercise.

Pick this team as if you stand to win a million dollars if they win the cup.

Current form must weighed up against reputation.

Players taken from a team still get to play for their own country so for arguments sake there could be two husseys in a match of dream 11 v aus.

SANGAKKARA
GAYLE
PONTING
LARA
PIETERSEN
HUSSEY
FLINTOFF
POLLOCK
NTINI
MURALITHARAN
BOND


SYMONDS
VETTORI
VAAS
GILCHRIST

my team is

1. Sangakarra
2. Gilchrist
3. Ponting
4. Tendulkar
5. Pieterson
6. Kallis
7. Symonds
8. Flintoff
9. Pollock
10. Vettori
11. Lee

12. Bond
13. Hussey
14. Gayle

With Lee batting at eleven, bowling this team out would be an enormous feat

Yet the bowling line up would still be
1. Lee
2. Flintoff
3. Pollock (in a Mcgrath like role)
4. Kallis
5. Vettori
6. Symonds

So bowling teams out shouldn't be to much of a problem either

Sehwag couldn't make a run to save his life at the moment. Only just made the Indian 15 man squad. Type of player that could turn it on in a World Cup though.
