Tubby has named his team of the decade 💥 Thoughts? READ: 9WWOS Cricket
– Again, clearly Ponting's best came in the previous decade, but even post-2010 he remained a formidable force, and I'll take him at number three any day of the week. His series against India in 2011-12, when he made 544 runs in four Tests, was a reminder that his appetite for big scores didn't diminish towards the end of his career. Throw in his fielding, which remained top-notch until he retired, and you've got one of the best players this country has produced.
It's so hard to pick Smith's best performance of the decade because there's so many to choose from, but it's tough to go past his performance in the recently completed Ashes series.Only Smith and Warner scored more Test runs for Australia this decade than Clarke, which is remarkable when you consider Clarke has been retired for more than four years.
12th men: Mitchell Johnson and Josh Hazlewood – the selectors never name a 12-man squad anymore, so there's no reason why I shouldn't throw in a 13th player as well!
