Not sure it fits with the BBC criteria, but this would be my team:

Tendulkar
Gilchrist
Richards
Kallis
de Villiers
Bevan
Imran Kahn
Wasim Akram
Warne
Garner
Muralitharan / McGrath - pitch dependent

You'd have to do something with the order.

Crazy that MSD and Bevan aren't in.

At least it's got Chris Gayle in it.

Gillespie wasn't impressed.

I suppose having the two great finishers in the side might be a bit belts and braces. But the BBC team had neither. But yes, maybe the era of top order double hundreds means the finisher doesn't have the same cache.
