No way Stokes bats above Greig and D’Oliveira. Usman should be there instead of Jackson imo.

Zaheer being rated the equivalent of Shami or better is pure nostalgia bias for that era of Indian cricket which i can sympathise with tbf since its a team and set of cricketers close to my heart and based on 2011’s result

had India won in 2023 this wouldnt even be a debate
But they didn’t. Mostly down to the batsmen but Shami did go for the most runs/ER in the game.
Zaheer turned up big time in that 2011 final.

Shami also did provided early breakthroughs..... To put it again, in World Cups Shami has 55 wickets in 18 matches at an average of 13...... That's bonkers. 2011 Final wasn't won by bowlers, if anything 275 was an above par score.
