He put Waugh down at 26 because he was a "match-saver rather than a match-winner". Border saved us time and time and time again during the 1980's. You don't remember Border for his match-winning innings.
Of course, I think Border was better than Waugh anyway, but of players who played with or against Warne, it'd be ridiculous to have Border in the top ten and Waugh at 26.
I also think he'll pick Border because Border was the selector who didn't want to drop him in the West Indies in 1999.
