International Captain
Durani
Pankaj
Assuming that's just for meme value?

Still to select pacers -

Sreesanth
RP Singh (I know he is meme value too, but he was a brilliant bowler before injury)
Nehra
Balaji
Agarkar
Chetan Sharma
Hardik Pandya
Munaf Patel
Aaron

Mostly poor bowlers overall, but had the spark to carry the day occasionally.

Nearly all were dire in the larger picture but they did provide some truly memorable moments for us.

Agarkar - 100 at Lord's, match-winner against Australia's ATG lineup in Adelaide
Balaji - some great spells in our series win in Pakistan
RP Singh - 5er at Lord's, troubled Pietersen
Sreesanth - bowled us to a couple of wins in SA, that ball to Kallis
Nehra - bowled us to a win in WI

Should probably pick Sreesanth tbh. He was actually very good for a whole season before joining the wheel.

I just picked Pankaj because he was exceedingly lovable. I still hate that dropped catch off Cook. :(

This is the unluckiest man in Indian cricket: almost 600 FC wickets at less that twenty a piece, and got to play all of two test matches.

Utpal Chatterjee was very unlucky too. He was clearly India's 2nd best spin bowler in the 90s after Anil Kumble but never played test cricket.

Venkatapathy Raju on the other hand played 28 test matches - just because he was from the State of captain Mohammad Azharuddin.

Raju was so average. The only interesting thing about him was his moustache.

I wonder who was better : Raju or Ojha? Might be a comparison worthy of a thread.

- Name a keeper for the India G XI
- Name a third quick or second spinner for the G team (I guess Durani could be the second spinner)


- Name both opening batsman for the India H XI
