After picking the all-time IPL XI and ODI XI, former domestic giant Wasim Jaffer ha🎉s now named the all-time Indian XI♐ in ODIs.
There, he went ahead with⛦ the blockbuster opening duo of Sachin Tendulkar and Sourav Ganguly. Therefore, the Mumbai stalwart had no place for Delhi swashbuckler Virender Sehwag, who has a double-ton to his name in ODI cricket.
Following Ganguly-Tendulkar are modern masters of the game, Rohit Sharma and Virat Ko🔯hli. The two Indian mainstays have been unstoppable in white-ball cricket, scoring tons at will.
For the finisher’s role, Jaffer went ahead with Yuvraj Singh and MS Dhoni, completing a formidable batting lineup. However, there was no place for Rahul Dravid, who has more than 10,000 ODI runs to hi🍰s name, after being tagged as a Test batsman initially.
Jaffer named talismanic Indian wicket-keeper batsman, Dhoni, who has a Champions Trophy, World T20 and ODI World Cup to his name,🍨 as the captain of th🐭e side.
Perhaps the greatest all-rounder to grace Indian cricket, Kapil Dev walks in at number seven in Jaffer’s lineup.
The highe🐎st run-getter in first-class cricket, Jaffer, had a tossup be🔜tween Ravindra Jadeja and Harbhajan Singh. Either of the two-finger spinners paired up with Anil Kumble to complete the spin-attack.
The new ball shall be shared between Zaheer Khan and Jasprit Bumrah, who a☂re, pe🗹rhaps, two of the greatest bowlers produced by the country in ODIs.
