Ramachandra Guha picks his Indian all-time one-day XI. One for players who made their debuts after the one-day format had come into being, and the other for those whose careers had ended before India played their first ODI. Have a look at his picks in the Telegraph.
Choosing mythical elevens is always contentious, but let me say no more about this team and instead go about picking an eleven composed of those Indians whose own careers ended before the era of one-day internationals. For earlier generations had also produced attacking batsmen, wicket-taking or restrictive bowlers, and fine fieldsmen. What then might a Dream Team of Golden Oldies look like?
