International Cricket Council has released the name of greatest test team selected by over quarter million fans of cricket. Four Australians, four Indians, two West Indians and one Pakistani have been named in the greatest test team. Surprisingly no England cricketer is in the greatest test XI. Players like Viv Richards, Malcom Marshall, Jack Hobbs, Imran Khan, Ricky Ponting and Muttiah Muralitharan are missing.
It seems that that India (who is also favoured a lot by ICC) has used its population strength and many cricket lovers from India has casted many votes therefore four Indians are selected in the Best Team. It would have been better if Jack Hobbs and Garry Sobers were selected instead of Sunil Gavaskar and Kapil Dev.
The final Dream XI is as follows:
1. Virender Sehwag (India), 2. Sunil Gavaskar (India), 3. Donald Bradman (Australia), 4. Sachin Tendulkar (India), 5. Brian Lara (West Indies), 6. Kapil Dev (India), 7. Adam Gilchrist (wk) (Australia), 8. Shane Warne (Australia), 9.Wasim Akram (Pakistan), 10. Curtly Ambrose (West Indies), 11. Glenn McGrath (Australia)
