To start the blog on an auspicious note, I am starting with a post that I wrote a couple of years ago.... Feel free to agree or disagree with the choices, but more importantly, come out with a team - your best XI that can take this team on.
All time Dream XI
What does a cricket enthusiast do when he is utterly jobless? Well, what else? Select an all time dream cricket team, which doesn’t have any meaning or relevance. Now that I am jobless, I decided to come out with my dream team of all time.
Here it is:
Sunil Gavaskar: Epitome of a test opener. Has all the patience in the world to wear a fast bowler out and has the repertoire of shots to then cash in on it.
Mark Taylor: Should have been Sehwag purely on batting merit. But then I need my dream captain for my dream team.
Viv Richards: For the sheer intimidation factor!
Sachin Tendulkar: By God He’s God!
Brian Lara: The most gifted talent to have wielded the willow ever.
Gary Sobers: Its gotta be Sobers! The most natural cricketer.
Adam Gilchrist: The sight of Gilly walking out to bat after dismissing such a top order can be the most disheartening sight for any bowling attack.
Wasim Akram: The left hand of god!
Michael Holding: Wow! The Rolls Royce. Arguably the greatest fast bowler of ‘em all. If you doubt it ask Geoffrey Boycott!!!
Dennis Lillee: The most complete fast bowler.
Muttiah Muralitharan: The Magician who’s conquered all teams and conditions except the Prince of Trinidad. But, then how does it matter when the Prince is his teammate!
Is any team game enough to take us on?
