No other candidates prolly. :cantstop:
As an alrounder, he has one well at least in one dept either batting or bowling, most times. He has a 100 just 3 tests back and took wickets too.

As an alrounder' date=' he has one well at least in one dept either batting or bowling, most times. He has a 100 just 3 tests back and took wickets too.[/quote'] Has been short of wickets. Since the WI home series, no? Did well against Aus. As I said, no real suitable candidate to go up against him. These runs are really helping him. What about Broad?

Has bowled in only 2 innings after the WI series. JoBerg 2nd innings - didn't pick up wicket (his fault - the first inning he bowled only 5-6 overs) England 1st innings (4th test) - 13 overs on Day 1 and 2 (with one over to Anderson on Day 3)

Mathews would be best for me.

Played merely 2 tests after WI series. Runs and wickets both count for AR. Broad has not scored that many runs.

Matthews is not an alrounder. Now, he is a batsman who can bowl a bit, like Ganguly. He is a part time bowler as far as test matches are concerned. How many wickets he has in test cricket?

Show me the success Matthews got with the ball. Rankings are not based on 1or 2 odd matches, but on a period of time. Mathews has 19 test wickets in 43 tests at 60. What a great success! Ganguly and SRT have better test bowling average than him. He got success with bat so will be counted as batsman, not bowler. He has better success as an AR in ODIs.

If he keep an average of 3 wickets per match in nest 1-2 years, he might be considered a top alounder in tests too.

Broad is 4th, Johnson 5th.

He's ranked 45th in ICC Test Championship Batting Rankings and he's the 6th highest Indian batsman in that list just behind Pujara, Kohli, Vijay, Dhoni and Rahane. He deserves to bat at no.6 we need to find a good opener to partner vijay and a middle order batsman and our batting would be complete. Vijay ? Pujara Kohli Rahane ? Ashwin Dhoni
