[The Outsider]

Openers : 1. Gavaskar - Arguably the best opener in the history of the game, an automatic choice 2. Sehwag - Has already made his mark as India's second best test opener and would provide an ideal foil for Gavaskar Middle Order : 3. Dravid - A solid performer at number three with the best away batting record in his era. 4. Tendulkar - Best batsman of his era fits in comfortably at his preferred number 4 slot. 5. Azharuddin(home)/Laxman(away) - The ability to take the game to and away from the opposition at a crucial spot. All Rounders : 6. Mankad - Solid batsman and a superb left arm spin bowler. 7. Kapil - Destructive batting combined with lethal swing bowling. Wicketkeeper : 8. Dhoni - Solid behind the stumps, destructive with the bat. Bowlers : 9. Kumble - India's best bowler ever. 10. Srinath - Lethal pace and bounce when on song. 11. Prasanna - Ideal off spin foil to Kumble and Mankad.

for all your hypothesizing, has only paused to wonder what would happen when people with inflated egoes such as gavaskar, azhar, amarnath etc are all in one team and only one captail is appointed?
