Darren Lehmann
So now he's coach of the aussie team, great pick imo but what about his test career? he was a truly awesome bat, should have played a lot more test cricket (like many others e.g. hodge, bevan), unfortunate that he was part of that generation where australia just had tons and tons of batting talent. still averaged close to 45 and struck at nearly 62. not to shabby with the ball either, he didn't bowl that much but an average of 27 in both tests and ODIs striking at 65 and 34 respectively made him a good option with the ball at times. if you have seen him bat look him up on youtube!
