This is my list of the best batsman from the sub-continent on bad,wet, broken wickets unfit for test cricket..


1Javed Miandad

2.Vijay Merchant
3.Gundappa Vishwanath /Majid Khan
5.Sunil Gavaskar
6.Aravinda De'Silva/ Rahul Dravid
8.Sachin Tendulkar

9.Hanif Mohammad
10.VVS Laxman

11.Mohinder Amarnath

12.Salim Malik

13.Saed Anwar

14.Kumar Sangakkara/Mahela Jayewardene






Noone posesesd more grit or determination of Javed,who was a true streetfighter.In 1936 and 1946 in wet English summers Merchant arguably even surpassed skill of Bradman.On bad wickets Vishy and Majid could bat like magicians.Gavaskar was the ultimate epitome of mental strength .De'Silva and Dravid did their gardening with precision few ever batsman did playing in exact tune to the given conditions.Tendulkar played some of his best knocks on bad tracks like at Bangalore against Pakistan or at Durban in 2010-11.In a 4th innings Laxman was close to the best of all time like he showed playing against Australia and Sri Lanka .Monder Amarnath was combat personified as much as any great batsman as he proved in the Carribean in 1983 and in Pakistan earlier.Salim Malik in precarious conditions at Leeds in 1987 and 1992 played the role of a lone crusader and also came out on top on a bad track in Trinidad in 1988 .Few openers batted better when the going was going against them as Anwar could like at Kolkata in 1999 when scoring an unbeaten 188.Sanga and Mahela took mastery to regions of the sublime on difficult tracks,Younis Khan resembled a soldier when batting as much as any cricketer.


Fans should see the video youtube of the batting of Vishy and Majid at their best on bad tracks which even Viv or Lara may not surpass or even those of Dravid or Laxman which exhibitd more application on a treacherous tack than even Tendulkar.Notably Gavaskar overshadowed Tendulkar in the 4th innings.
