Would all-time all-rounders World Cup XI defeat all-time specialists World Cup XI?

[Harsh Thakor]

This is my dream all-time world cup xi comprising only of all-rounders.Would like to pit it against a specialist World Cup xi,comprising only of great batsmen and bowlers and specialist keeper.

All-rounder all-time World cup XI

Shahid Afridi
Adam Gilchrist(W)
Jacques Kallis
Michael Bevan
Steve Waugh
Kapil Dev
Imran Khan(C)
Lance Kluesner
Richard Hadlee
Ravichandra Ashwin
Wasim Akram

What a competitive team with the great all-round prowess of fast bowling all-rounders like Kapil,Imran,Hadlee , and batting all-rounders in Kallis,Bevan and the likes of Viv,Sachin,Lara and Ponting batting in team and Waugh in addition to Gilchrist as a wicket keeper all-rounder.By itself it would make the best world cup pace attack.Openers Afridi and Gilchrist could simply blast the opposition apart.

Specialists all-time World Cup xi

Sachin Tendulkar
Matthew Hayden
Viv Richards(C)
Brian Lara
Virat Kohli
Ricky Ponting
Shane Warne
Malcolm Marshall
Deryk Murray(W)
Joel Garner
Glen Mcgrath

Greatest batsmen and bowlers here .Imagine the likes of Viv,Lara,Ponting and Kohli batting in tandem and a bowing attack posessing the skill of Garner,Marshall and ,Mcgrath.Viv and Sachin would also bowl a few overs.

I would back the specialists World Cup XI to win by a slender margin of around 2 wickets or 15-20 runs.It has greater match-winners with the bat and almost on par skill with the all-rounders XI with the ball.

No. Also, if Ashwin is an all rounder, than so was Viv, and even Sachin and Warne.

 

[Harsh Thakor]

No. Also, if Ashwin is an all rounder, than so was Viv, and even Sachin and Warne.

Remember Ashwin has scored centuries in test cricket and quite a few fifties.Fastest to make test double.

 

[Harsh Thakor]

No. Also, if Ashwin is an all rounder, than so was Viv, and even Sachin and Warne.

Ashwin has even batted at 4 down unlike Warne.

 

[BreadPakoda]

Remember Ashwin has scored centuries in test cricket and quite a few fifties.Fastest to make test double.

World Cup is in ODI format. And Ashwin doesn't have any centuries in ODIs. Viv and Sachin, on the other hand, have 5-fors.

Michael bevan ,wasim akram,steve waugh,ashwin are not all ODI allrounders.
I think a better allrounder team will be :

Shane Watson
Adam Gilchrist
Kallis
Shakib
Yuvraj
Flintoff
Imran
Klusener
Kapil
Afridi
Hadlee

Wasim is close to best ODI allrounder of all-time if you ***** runs and wickets and combined efforts.Which team would win Specialists or all-rounders?

 

[Harsh Thakor]

Waugh has 195 wickets.

Would not Afridi open?Would this side beat a specialists XI?Which XI would Jayasuriya make?
