This is my test xi of players of the 1970's and 80's combined.Excluded Kanhai and Sobers as they were mainly from decade of the 1960's.
1.Sunil Gavaskar
2.Barry Richards
3.Viv Richards
4.Greg Chappell
5.Alan Border
6.Javed Miandad
7.Imran Khan(C)
8.Alan Knott (W)
9.Malcolm Marshall
10.Dennis Lillee
11.Abdul Qadir
This team may have given a run for its money for an imaginary xi of other decades listed below.Imran would lead it.
alltime xi excluding decades of 1970 and 80.Included Tendulkar and Wasim as morally they did not belong too the 80's and main career was from the 1990's onwards.
1.Len Hutton
2.Jack Hobbs
3.Don Bradman(C)
4.Brian Lara
5.Sachin Tendulkar
6.Gary Sobers
7.Adam Gilchrist (W)
8.Shane Warne
9.Wasim Akram
10.Sydney Barnes
11.Glen Mcgrath
It would be a close finish but the non 70-80's team would prevail.Still cricketing standard was arguably the highest in the 1970-80 era..
