Utilising a method adopted from Don Bradman, Benaud shortlisted three players for each position before finalising the team. The team. twelfth man: Keith Miller Manager: Frank Worrell The short list. Openers: Number 3: Middle order: All-rounders: Wicket-keeper: Spin bowler: Fast bowlers: Criticism. After the release, Benaud was criticised by several cricket historians for not picking any West Indian fast bowlers from the 1970s  and 1980s when they had a fearsome quartet in his "XI," not even Malcolm Marshall, who is widely regarded as the most complete fast bowler of the modern era. Benaud was also criticised for being biased in his selection of wicket-keeper where he picked all three keepers from Australia, avoiding Jeffrey Dujon and several other notable wicket-keepers. However, Benaud responded to the criticism that he didn't pick the best "XI" of all time; he just picked a "XI" whom he wanted to be in charge of.
