Greatest Australian ODI XI of all time

9) Brett Lee

Brett Lee was a brilliant ODI bowler

If you thought Johnson will take away the ‘speedster’ tag in this team, then you might have to think again. A bowler who could scale his pace upto the 160 kmph mark, Lee was a lethal bowler who could destroy any opposition on his day.

He wasn’t only a speedster but was also an equally good exponent of swing bowling, his toe-crushing yorkers and lethal bouncers were also a sight to watch.

In 221 ODIs, he picked up 380 wickets at an average of 23.36 and an impressive strike rate of 29.4. Lee formed one of the great modern-day bowling partnerships alongside Glenn McGrath. With his handy batting down the order as an added advantage, he makes it into this team quite easily.
