Can we also have a vote for who bats #8? It says 'KD Nikhanj' whereas most worldwide fans know him as the ATG Kapil Dev?
I am just using the initials for now. Will be a little strange to shift to full name for a single player after using initials for 2 Nations. When I post the full teams, I will post with the full name as well.

I'll go with Dhoni as I think his keeping was just a bit better than Pant's.
However, I'd prefer Pant in the scenario that Jadeja doesn't make the XI as it is beneficial to have at least one left hander.

I've deleted my votes. I may be old fashioned but not really interested in naming an XI when someone as famous and great as Kapil Dev is listed as KD Nikhanj
If it's such a Big deal for you, I will change it. Don't get why it's so important really, when it's literally his full name, Kapil Dev Nikhanj. I really had nothing to do with that.

I've seen him listed as N Kapil Dev but never KD Nikhanj so perhaps NK Dev can be a compromise
Kapildev is literally his first name. His full name is Kapildev Ramlal Nikhanj. But meh, don't care enough, whatever majority says.

KD Nikhanj? Please don't do this
Not again please...... And I gotta ask, why really? What's all the commotion? It's his legal full name. Heck, Dev even isn't his middle name. Anyways, don't care enough so K Dev have to work.
