A very good team this one. I will perhaps only change Kirmani for Sadanand Vishwanath (I know he got very few games, but he was good), and Bedi or even Prasanna (?) for Harbhajan Singh.

Now, we are picking the team based on overall performance. If only peaks are considered, Kambli should get a mention for sure.

I certainly had Kambli in mind too, he was deemed the 'forgotten man' of indian cricket.

I don't think I would include Kambli in India's greatest test 11 even though he has two double centuries.But the choice of Bishen Singh Bedi in place of Harbhajan is more likely.
