  • World Test XI

    Ron Reed and Vic Marks have done it. And so has Uncle JRod.

    Here is mine.

    1. Sehwag – The innings against South Africa and Poms at Chennai. Enough said.
    2. Smith – Gambhir is unlucky to miss out, but Smith scored more runs, and at crucial times.
    3. Pietersen – The guy can bat.
    4. Tendulkar – I don’t want to explain this one.
    5. Ab – Loads of runs, and with style.
    6. Chanderpaul – I hate to do this. I mean I really hate his tape under his eyes, but he made runs, and buckets of it.
    7. Dhoni – The best keeper batsman in Tests today.
    8. Mendis – Amazing debut against the best players of spin in the game today.
    9. Ishant Sharma – One of the three awesome pace bowlers. His spell to Ponting was one of the best spells of fast bowling in almost a decade. 
    10. Dale Steyn – Look at the number of wickets.
    11. Mitchell Johnson – Very impressive young bowler with a lot of heart and good cricketing sense.

    Reserve bowler – Zaheer Khan – again amazing cricketing sense. Reserver batsman – Gautam Gambhir.

    Any ideas??
