Shakib above Kumble and Jadeja above Miandad are certainly strong takes

Jadeja has done enough to be ahead of Miandad for me..... Miandad himself was a htb; and Jadeja actually has been way too important with the bat for the last 5 years as well.
I went back and forth on Kumble and Shakib..... Not sure really.

Kapil, Ashwin, Jadeja, Miandad not above Kohli

In Tests only?? Kapil and Jadeja are the most debatable, but both are all-rounders, so meh. Miandad I consider a better batsman, and Ashwin is definitely ahead only counting Tests.
Kohli atleast during his peak was a more complete player across conditions, being amazing in Aus and SA, brilliant at home(despite not having majorly challenges, averaging close to 60 at home is great), decent in SL and WI, and had one major ATG series in England

Peak Kohli isn't the problem. The problem is the trough Kohli post COVID who averaged mid 20s over 3 years...... Miandad had his issues, but the rascal was consistent as ****. Hope Kohli clearly surpasses him before retirement.
