King Tendulkar Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 Well at least no one can say Bradman. Apart from if Donny makes reapearance as he is probably old enough to have seen him bat!

Utalk Posted November 22, 2011 Author Posted November 22, 2011 Anwar over the likes of Grrenidge' date=' Haynes, Sehwag and Gavaskar :omg: I wonder what the criteria was for selecting the team :haha:[/quote'] Its all opinions mate. I never really saw SG, Haynes and Grinidge at their peak and Anwar faced better bowlers then sehwag.

zen Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 Started watching cricket regularly mainly from the 90s but have vague memory of those who played in the late 80s so .... Tests: - Gavaskar - Sehwag (Gooch a strong contender as well but not as good as Sehwag against spin. The incredible SR does it for Sehwag too) - IVAR (though he wasn't at his destructive best when I saw a few games but still the master blaster) - Lara (gets 375, someone breaks it, scores 400! .... 501* in FC) - Tendulkar - Steve Waugh / Martin Crowe / .... (too many options, may be I will pretend to have watched Sobers play) - Gilly - Hadlee - Marshall - Warne - Ambrose (for ability to win games on his own when in flow) or Akram (for reverse swing, that ball to Croft)
phaedrus Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 Openers: Hayden Sehwag Middle Order: Dravid/Ponting Sachin Lara/Richards Waugh Wicketkeeper: Gilchrist Fast Bowlers: Ambrose Akram McGrath Spinner: Warne
Number Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 1. Sehwag 2. Hayden 3. Ponting 4. Sachin 5. S. Waugh 6. Kallis 7. Gilchrist 8. Pollock 9. McGrath 10. Donald 11. Murali/Warne (SC/outside SC)
phaedrus Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 Akram over Ambrose Donald and Waqar?? he has ambrose in there. in the 90s, no other bowler made me more nervous as an indian supporter as Akram and Ambrose. :((
kabira Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 I started to understand cricket from 92. Thats when cable TV began in India. My earlier memory is 87 world cup and few games here and there. Ofcourse Sachin's debut etc. Openers Sehwag Hayden Lara SRT S Waugh Border Kapil Dev Gilchrist Warne McGrath Wasim

Ultimate_Game Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 Akram over Ambrose Donald and Waqar?? Waqar was over-rated and could be taken apart as Jadeja showed in 96 Q/F. He had pace and yorkers but nt the variety like Akram had. And I am not picking Akram over Ambrose, it's just that in the batting order Akram will come before Ambrose. As for Donald, wanted to opt for a left handed seamer for variety and Donald really didn't bring anyting extra which Akram didn't already. As for Anwar facing better bowlers surely an average of 50+ with a S/R of 80 as an opener trumps a player averaging 42 or thereabouts.
