It is not fair to compare generations in world of cricket. Conditions, rules, opponents, and opportunities should all be taken into account. Though it done so, it always results in an interesting topic of to be talked about. Dinesh Karthik, also recently has picked his all-time favourite XI in Indian cricket on Cricbuzz. The caption of video read: “DK’s list of his top XI teammates”. Karthik said that it was impossible to include everybody. Among the players with whom Karthik has played the nationals, names of players such as Sourav Ganguly, VVS Laxman and MS Dhoni were not there.
“I will be opening with Virender Sehwag and Rohit Sharma. Good opening combination across formats. At No. 3 would be Rahul Dravid. No. 4 Sachin Tendulkar. No. 5 Virat Kohli. At No. 6, it was a tough one. I was thinking who, but I should fit in two all-rounders. So very similar to the kind of players that India have been producing, Yuvraj Singh. At No. 7, Ravindra Jadeja. At No. 8, R Ashwin, at No. 9, Anil Kumble. At No. 10, Jasprit Bumrah, and No. 11 will be Zaheer Khan,” Karthik said.
“The 12th man will be Harbhajan Singh, and there are many players I have missed out. Gautam Gambhir, what can you say about it and I feel it’s just hard to fit in everybody in this eleven. So, this is an all-time XI across formats that I thought.”
