Warne, who has been naming his preferred XIs from different countries on his facebook page, turned his attention to India in the latest post. The criterion for selection was that Warne must have competed against the selected players. Not surprisingly, cricket’s highest run-scorer Tendulkar was Warne’s choice for No.4 spot in his side. The opening slots went to Virender Sehwag and Navjot Singh Sidhu followed by the ever-dependable Rahul Dravid at No.3.

Tendulkar, who scored 15,921 runs with 51 hundreds in 200 Tests, was hardly a surprise. But Warne said that he was in a dilemma about whether to go for VVS Laxman or Mohammad Azharuddin for No.6 position. All-rounder Kapil Dev and current limited-overs captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni are also in the list. Dhoni has not played international cricket against Warne but made the cut owing to the IPL face-offs between the two. Anil Kumble, Harbhajan Singh and Javagal Srinath formed the bowling attack of Warne’s line-up.

Warne’s Greatest India Test XI

Virender Sehwag, Navjot Singh Sidhu, Rahul Dravid, Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly, Mohammad Azharuddin, Kapil Dev, MS Dhoni, Anil Kumble, Harbhajan Singh and Javagal Srinath (VVS Laxman 12th).

One Of The Best!!!
