    They are loads of people who should have been in the list, but aren't there. I'm sure there are quite a few people who will disagree with Shastri, Bishop and Smith.

    Sehwag is surely a nightmare for bowlers. He is an explosive batsman and it would be great to see him perform in IPL. The Dream Test team looks great though a couple of changes can be made. :)

    Viru deserves it...... i was fortunate and lucky enough to be in chepauk in Chennai, when he scored the fastest triple century in the history of cricket.... It was quite a nightmare for the south African bowlers...

    i would always prefer viru playing his natural game.... That's when he is at his best....:)
