The ICC announced the following players in the Test team of the year - a team to take on ET (and mates) when he comes back for his long overdue sequel. The selectors cut some corners in using Sangakkara as captain and wicketkeeper, neither of which he undertakes for his country's test side. It is an interesting point that no test captain made the side - and although it is less surprising that no Australian made the side for the first time, it's a reflection on Australia's fall that the two representatives from 2010 have been dropped from the Australian team - Simon Katich and Doug Bollinger (12th man).
