I can't agree with Richards and Ambrose being 1st picked in best of ODI teams, again different era's give us different opinions I reckon.
Respect your opinion TDK but Viv and Curtly would be 2 of my 1st picked in any format in my lifetime in the last 40 years. Gilchrist is another, far from the best keeper but was solid enough and his batting put him a fair way ahead of Dujon and others. Always rated Alec Stewart.
I loved watching Viv bat in any format.
Imagine him playing the T20 format these days.
No ground would be big enough for him.[/quote]
Viv was the dynamo of his era, Kohli is that now. But if I'd have to decide between them it would be Viv every day. A genius.[/quote]
Agreed.
