Ferdinand's relationship with his fellow England internationals has been strained over the last few years but the trio will line up in a Great Britain and Ireland side to be captained by David Beckham and managed by Sir Alex Ferguson.
Chelsea defender Terry received a four-match suspension after he was found guilty of using abusive language towards Ferdinand's brother Anton during a Premier League game against QPR in October 2011, while Cole gave evidence on Terry's behalf at a magistrates hearing, which saw the Chelsea captain cleared of a racial abuse charge over the same incident.
Ferdinand wrote in his autobiography that "three years later I find it impossible to forgive or forget the pain [Terry] put my family through" and that he felt Cole had "betrayed" their friendship.
However, the great britain team which is to be managed by Sir Alex, will play against a star studded team with the likes of Nesta, Zidane, Edwin van der sar......
GREAT BRITAIN & IRELAND: David Seaman, David James, Sol Campbell, John Terry, Phil Neville, Rio Ferdinand, Jamie Carragher, Ashley Cole, Nicky Butt, David Beckham (captain), Paul Scholes, Ryan Giggs, Michael Owen, Andy Cole.
REST OF THE WORLD: Edwin van der Saar, Cafu, Fabio Cannavaro, Alessandro Nesta, Patrick Vieira, Michael Ballack, Massimo Ambrosini, Robert Pires, Luis Figo, Ronaldinho, Zinedine Zidane (captain), Dwight Yorke, Patrick Kluivert, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, Landon Donovan.
