Best Ind AT XI

[zen]

I guess there must be a few threads on this but w/ Ind winning the WC11, may be a time for a new thread: Tendulkar Gavaskar (for his record in later part of his career) Ganguly Dravid Sehwag (part time off spin) Yuvi (ability to bowl a few overs of spin, mos 2011wc) Dhoni Kapil Srinath Zak Kumble That's a balanced AT line up. The top 5 good enough to handle best bowlers from WI, aus, SA and pak. The 4 bowlers are pretty good too w/ srinath as the spearhead and kumble the main spinner. Part time spin options are decent. The lower order batting with yuvi, dhoni and Kapil is superb. I m not sure who the captain would be, may be Gavaskar or kumble

At 11, I was the best Indian. After I reached my 20s, I have been the best in the world ever. Don't know why you need a thread for it. :dontknow: Not really debatable.

Well, like Bradman, you are beyond comparison so sorry for not including your name in my ODI line up :P

Good team but I will make 1 change... Replace Dravid with Gambhir. Dravid was great addition to the team when he used to keep wkts as in early 200s but with Dhoni in Dravid loses out. Plus Gambhir is a pretty good batsman and a great batsman against spin and at 4 will get to play in the middle overs against spinners.

just a few years the guy didnot play in ODIs and we all forget RD's contribution to India in ODIs... numerous game he controlled the innings when goddy and dada got out and so many wins we owe to him... the crucial middle overs backbone for india for over 7 years and we say replace him by dhoni when we have an azhar in that list who was not even half the player dravid was... :whack:

+1 There is no way we can have an all time XI without Dravid.He was outstanding for us in both 99 and 2003 world cups.

Have you seen Kapil play?

Have you seen Kapil play?

I calculated his RPO (runs per ODI :P) and it quite good so I included him :winky:

Might as well do a quick test 11 Gavaskar Sehwag Dravid Tendulkar Laxman Mankad Kapil WK (kirmani/dhoni/eng/....) Srinath (/amarsingh) Zak (/nissar) Kumble / Parsanna / Chandra

I will go with this. Sehwag is too risky in ODIs, Ganguly was better at his peak - rest are obvious choices. Azhar and Dravid are still replaceable though.
