As I implied in my earlier response to 'WASIM AKRAN APPOINTED PAKISTAN  
CAPTAIN', this is a step that was long overdue. Miandad should never have  
been Pakistan's captain.

on a lighter note, even shastri has a better record than prabhakar plus 
he has taken so many more wickets, thats experience for you. plus he
can bat too, well his average is about 35 or so. 
and most of all for all those shastri critics out there who insist
that he bats all the time(i.e too slowly), what better person than 
shastri to make an All time Indian XI :-)

What are the selectors trying to prove????
Surely this is not Chetan Sharma back in the squad.
Yadav should have been retained instead of More, and Manjrekar should
definitely be back in the side, along with Shastri when he's fit. Sidhu is
good for the one-days, but not for test cricket.
The team, IMHO, should be something like the following:

Shastri
Raman
Manjrekar
Azharuddin
Tendulkar
Kambli
Yadav
Kapil
Prabhakar
Srinath
Kumble

although I would like to see another spinner in there (Shastri doesn't really
count).

Subject: The best ever 1 day XIs
Organization: New Mexico State University
Date: Tue, 26 Jan 1993 23:34:52 GMT


Following the tumultous responses I've been receiving to my best ever test  
XIs, I've decided to compile my best ever 1 day XIs.

One point to note. Cricketers who came in before the concept of limited  
overs matches was introduced have not been considered in the squads below.  
So, for instance, though I'd like to include Sir Don Bradman or Sir Gary  
Sobers in their teams, I haven't. & don't grill me on this; the  
speculation of what they might have done in such cricket is left to you.
Also, some test greats were left out as I didn't consider them suitable  
for 1 day cricket, like Geoff Boycott . Also, if a team won the world cup  
on any occasion, or did remarkably well like NZ last time, the stars of  
that performance were given prominent consideration. Performances in Kerry  
Packer's WSC were considered, while some 1 day moves, like having Ian  
Botham open the batting, were implemented.And yes: all the line-ups below  
are in batting order.

I think if the ball rebounds from the helmet and someone completes
the catch, then the batsman is out. But if it got stuck in the Helmet
then five runs will be awarded to the batsman.

 Now hang on a minute Keith Miller would make Botam look like a hack. 
Statistically, realistically and characterly (hmm) superior. I would

    you know, in all this hoopla about kapil, sobers, miller, botham etc.,
    india's other great all-rounder vinoo mankad never seems to get any

    quite a lot of wickets (162).  he scored two 100's as an opener vs
    bradman's australians (the same team which destroyed england in the 48

    short test career and had probably the best allround performance in a
    test match at lord's (72 & 184 + 5 wickets in the england 1st
    innings). he was also the quickest to the test double (23 tests) until
    botham broke the record in 79. he shares the test record for the 1st
    wicket (413) with pankaj roy. awesome figures, but his name never

Your chagrin is understandable. But do please note that a few weeks
ago I said on this very forum that Vinoo Mankad was the
most complete player in the world after Sobers. Perhaps the one 
concrete contribution old timers like me can make on RSC is to keep
reminding the younger contributors that there were players before 1970
who could play this game.

I'd prefer Benaud to Sir Don, but I'd prefer Sir Don to Border. I'd also prefer
Chappell to Border. Actually, I'm not sure Border would make the side, because
Miller would have to fit in the top six somewhere. And there'd be a few bowlers
to beat Thommo, such as Davidson or Lindwall.

Well that would render Shastri (almost) completely useless, wouldn't it?
I mean, he can't bat & he really can't be considered a spinner...but I
guess he fields fairly well at third man.
