Former England national team spinner Graeme Swann has picked his all-time XI after the International Cricket Council (ICC) asked fans to assemble a team that they would watch for the rest of their lives. ‘If you had to pick a team that you would watch for the rest of your life, what would it be?’ ICC captioned their post. The 41-year-old was one of the very first who commented as he picked a star-studded team which included some of the greatest players of all-time. England Cricket Team Players Set to Face Pay Cuts in Salaries Amid Coronavirus Pandemic.
