Sachin Tendulkar features in ESPNcricinfo’s all-time World Test XI | Bharat Chronicle


Master blaster Sachin Tendulkar is the only Indian and the only current cricketer named in ESPNcricinfo’s all-time Test World XI.

The jury effectively voted Tendulkar as the fourth-greatest cricketer in the history of the game.

Cricket biggies like Ricky Ponting, Brian Lara, Glenn McGrath and Sunil Gavaskar could not find a place in the World 11.

Going by the votes, this is the order of merit in which the world’s middle-order batsmen stack up: Bradman, Tendulkar, Richards, Headley, Lara, Hammond, Graeme Pollock and Greg Chappell.

The jury comprised one former captain from each of the top Test-playing teams — Ian Chappell, Clive Lloyd, Tony Greig, Duleep Mendis, Ali Bacher, Intikhab Alam, John Wright, Ajit Wadekar — and four cricket historians and writers.

World XI: Jack Hobbs, Len Hutton, Don Bradman, Sachin Tendulkar, Viv Richards, Garry Sobers, Adam Gilchrist, Malcolm Marshall, Shane Warne, Wasim Akram, Dennis Lillee

Second XI: Sunil Gavaskar, Barry Richards, George Headley, Brian Lara, Wally Hammond, Imran Khan, Alan Knott, Bill O’Reilly, Fred Trueman, Muttiah Muralitharan, SF Barnes
