Bowling one would be heavily reliant on pitch & conditions , so I will just take one from each price range

The Roar have a article on a all Time greatest Australian Test XI

Trumper
Simpson
Bradman
Chappell , G
Smith
Miller
Gilchrist
Warne
Lillee
Spofforth
McGrath

Always thought Morris was our best opener since WWII.

Barnes , McCabe , Harvey.

Archie Jackson.

No AB , Tugga or Punter

Was Gilly a better keeper than Tallon ?

Think I would have room for Davidson , no Lindwall either.

Wonder how Warne compared to O'Reilly and Grimmett.

Hayden

Punter
Chappell , G
AB
Waugh , S
Marsh/Healy/Gilly
Warne
Lillee
?

3rd quick is tough , maybe Dizzy

hard to leave out JL , but have to have Boonie in my side & Punter at 5 or 6 seems wrong.

would be happy with any of the keepers

Heard a funny story about O’Reilly where he was playing grade cricket with one of the up and coming seamers at the time (possibly Lindwall).

O’Reilly was captain and Lindwall had just taken a wicket, O’Reilly asked him to take a rest to which the young quick was mystified and said “I just took a wicket?!” To which O’Reilly replied “I’ll get them quicker.”

He promptly took whatever wickets were left on offer in the next over, more than justifying the decision.
