Pakistan All Time XI vs India All Time XI: Who Would Win?

Who would win? no one really knows. Who is stronger? Probably Pakistan in tests and India in ODIs
 
Based on those XIs you just mentioned I’d say pakistan but would replace zaheer with perhaps ijaz Ahmed who I thought was very good against India. Tempted to add Shoaib akhtar somewhere but don’t know where.
 
I am sure this has been a heavy topic!

The OP is from many, many years ago and I think things will be different in terms of all time great picks in ODIs for both sides.

Personally, I believe Pakistan has the upper hand in all formats but it is very close and I am sure both sides have varying opinions.

I understand you have seen Ijaz's 139* at Lahore and never Zaheer Abbas, but at least try CricInfo some times........
 
I still think in Test definitely and in ODI marginally PAK will be ahead, but not for long.

This thread was opened just about a decade back - since then, AT Indian ODI XI has added 3 players in playing XI (means the squad has improved from that point) - Kohli, Sharma, Bumrah. PAK has added may be Babar in squad ......

In Test squad, last PAK entry in the squad will be YK, debuted 20 years back, since then IND has added probably 3 men in playing XI - Kohli, Ashwin & one of Ishant, Shami, Bumrah. A 4th man (Sehwag) debuted few months ahead of YK I believe.

And, if I make a 2nd XI, that comparison will be almost insulting in last 20 years.

This is what happens when you lease your own cricket development to 3rd party and boast on talent .......

I think one of the reasons why India have an upper hand in ODIs over Pakistan is that Pakistan even with any of their team have never been able to win a World cup match against India. They had the likes of Wasim, Waqar, Imran and Miandad in some of those games back in 90s while Indian team was highly mediocre with Azharrudin and a 18 yr old Tendulkar only making it in all time ODI XI for India.

It's after the turn of the millennium that Dhoni, Yuvraj, Kohli, Rohit and Bumrah happened to India and all these walk into ODI sides comfortably. India not only have the skills and ability in that lineup but also has delivered under crunch situations which is why we have two world cup wins and better world cup head to head record.

Pakistan also have been a good team in big matches and under pressure as their record suggest against South Africa or England or NZ but perhaps not convincing enough against India.
 
I understand you have seen Ijaz's 139* at Lahore and never Zaheer Abbas, but at least try CricInfo some times........

Hey hey i have seen Zaheer Abbas play but just think that the 1999 Pakistan team jelled well and were unbeatable for their time which included Ijaz Ahmed.

It's difficult to judge but looking at the records yes Zaheer had an average of 50 against India and SR of 97 but that was based off of 13 matches only.

Whereas Ijaz has played 50+ matches against India, has an average of around 35 and SR just under 80 which is fairly decent.

Although Zaheer looked good, it would have been interesting had he played more cricket against India but i did come across his innings against Australia in Australia where he looked nothing short of phenomenal.

H2H between IND-PAK is still highly favoring PAK and that is surprisingly still balanced in last 20 years. One reason is that, despite massive decline, still PAK has (had, not in last few years) couple of skills set to counter India's strength - spin play with bat and pace bowling against India's batting. The starting XI for PAK AT ODI team is almost untouchable - as good as any AT team. But, PAK's 2nd XI compared to other major teams' 2nd XI will be much, much inferior - the reason is that, almost all of PAK's cricket greats came between that 30-35 years window, while for AUS, ENG, IND, SAF, every generation has produced world class players ........

As I wrote many times - make 20 men squad of IND from 1933 - you'll get representations from every decade, at least since 1960s for sure and a healthy representation from last 20 years - Sehwag, UV, Kohli, Ashwin, Bhajji, Zak, Bumrah, Jadeja, Ishant, Shami, Sharma....... do that for PAK - either side between 1970-1999, it's almost blank..... almost similar case for WIN as well. People attribute it with natural talent, I tend to believe that Mushtaq Mo & Sarfraz Newaz opened a window sometimes in late 1960s, which was closed by the end of last millennium - hence this dumble shape (fat between 1970-99, narrow either side) .....

WC is an unique situation, which no one can explain - even BD, ZIM has wins over India in WC, SRL won in 1979, but some how PAK managed to lose to IND even when they were clearly better team. These days, probably it'll be a closer contest between PAK vs IND reserves.

Although Zaheer looked good, it would have been interesting had he played more cricket against India but i did come across his innings against Australia in Australia where he looked nothing short of phenomenal.

Zaheer Abbas has 1800 Test runs against India at an average of 87, and that SR will be over 70, in 1970s & 1980s....

Zaheer played only 62 ODI hence, he is beaten by volume - if you ignore that, he'll make the all-time ODI squad. ODI context has changed so much over the period that talking stats is useless - these days Josh Butler has better figures than some Vivian Richards (If you had seen Zaheer, must have seen this fella Vivian as well). Zaheer had a career stats of 48/86, in an era when Viv had 47/90 ..... and guys like GG Grineedge ~46/62, Gooch ~38/61, AB 30/69, Haynes ~42/65 ..... that should be eye opener.

Zaheer's game was built on front-foot drives with God gifted timing & wrists, something very similar to Graeme Hick 2 decades later - and both were monsters in County cricket, because of the average speed and use of bouncers in County cricket. That was the reason, both were much inferior Test batsman, but in LO cricket - Zaheer was a different beast, matched Viv stats by stats with a little footnote - Viv never played his own bowlers, Zaheer did.

And, if you add one more filter - how those runs were scored, very few in history will match him. And, those runs were scored with a 2 pound 3 oz bat!!!!!!
 
If it were a one off match, or even a series, between AT XI of these two teams, it'd be a roll of the dice between them. Pakistan's bowling would hold its weight against the Indian batting machine. An Indian attack of Bumrah, Kapil, Ashwin and Shami/Srinath/Ishant would be interesting match up against the Pakistani batting.

But. If the contest were imagined as a multiple series across several years, then I have little doubt India's depth would allow them to prevail. I mean, batsmen with pedigree of Laxman, Azhar, Vishwanath, Vengasarkar, Ganguly, Hazare, Merchant, Pujara etc wouldn't get into an Indian AT XI.

Dravid is a must. Drop Azhar as he averages 27 and 23 Vs Aus and SA respectively and 41 Vs England.

Also Latif instead of Moin in Pak XI.

Good call on Dravid.

What about Wasim Bari?

You are right. Zaheer is definitely the better of the two you can say and not going to disagree with anything you've said there bro. Very much a majestic batsman.

I stand corrected but still think that squad could use Shoaib Akhtar somewhere as he used to have a knack of getting Tendulkar out. Perhaps you could be bold and play 4 seamers and just one spinner which leaves either Mushi or Afridi out. Only saying this as India and Asian teams as a whole play spin better than pace.

modern india play pace and bounce way better. Post 2010 india are far better vs pace and bounce. They actually struggle vs quality spin.

Indian all time would crush pakistan in Australian and south african conditions. Absolutely no chance pakistan beats india there. On pattas india would win there too. turning pitches would be 50 50, more likely a draw.

pakistam would win in England and new zealand.
 
modern india play pace and bounce way better. Post 2010 india are far better vs pace and bounce. They actually struggle vs quality spin.

Yea can’t compare those bowlers with facing the likes of prime Waqar, akram, Shoaib and Imran in a match.

Our spinners whenever I see them they get tonked for more than 6 rpo when they face India.

Saeed ajmal was probably one bowler who gave India big trouble as well as mushi.

Afridi another one of our best bowlers rarely gave them trouble.
 
modern india play pace and bounce way better. Post 2010 india are far better vs pace and bounce. They actually struggle vs quality spin.

It is hard to know that though. The pitches all over the world have become flat pattas. I remember even 15 years ago grounds like WACA (Perth) were really really pacy. Now it is just an unrecognizable strip of land. I still feel that the Indian stars from this generation would struggle if there were any fast bowlers from Pakistan who can get pace and slight bit of movement. Akram would probably slice through the current line up like a can opener. I can imagine him toying with that incutters. And god forbid if the square is rough, then Shoaib and Waqar would come into the picture.

I actually think India has more of an advantage on spin friendly conditions. I dont think I know of an Indian batsman who does not play spin well. Although people think that all sub contintental sides play spin well, I don't agree that Pakistan do that so well. The only player I think can play spin well was Younis khan from the recent lot. From the older generation, Salim Malik and Javed Miandad would be the best, and still further back almost all of them from the likes of Hanif, Zaheer et al. In terms of our spin strength to bowl at the Indian lineup, only Qadir and Saqlain were good enough and if the Indians neutralize the fast men, maybe they would have it easier against the spinners.
 
Pak well above in test, India has no fast bowlers

bumrah
shami
srinath
zaheer
ishant

more than good emough. india would beat pakistan in sub continent, australia and south africa. pakistan would only win in England and new zealand. indian all time is underrated in tests. they would beat almost everyone at home. Actually they would beat everyone at home. Away with depth in bowling it would be competitive.

They haven't played enough. Zaheer, Ishant would struggle to be in top 10 pak fast bowlers ever. Srinath not top five. Bumrah and Shami have need to play significantly more tests to qualify. Othwerise blokes like Cummins would already be in their countries all time team. Shami still averages like 27, well below pak's top four.

My teams would be:

Pak:
Hanif
Saeed Anwar
Younis Khan

put shami in there. Ah not played enough hey?

Yea makes sense. Based on the team above I would give india the edge in sub continent flat pattas, turning pitches and still in my opinion would have the edge in australua.

pakistan would have the edge in New zealand, England.

so overall I still believe India has a slight edge. Add in shami in the future, bumrah etc.

averages are not everything. philander averages 22. We all know that he is overrated.

shami is more than good enough to hurt the pakistan batsmen.

Even based on the above mentioned teams, take out bedi and put in shami. It changes the whole composition of the team.

India would win in subcontinent slow patta pitches, rank turners and in Australian plus south african conditions. Their record suggests so. Pakistan have always been terrible players of bounce.

pakistan would beat india in englsnd and new zeland. overall I would say india still has the edge in tests.

srinath and zaheer peaked late and their averages could have been a lot better had they been supported well by first change bowlers.

With an all star t3am that support would exist hence making that trio a formidable one.

K Shami with an average of 27 can go in, doesn't make a huge difference. Pak better in SA and WI easily. Ind have only done well in Aus recently, used to get smashed. Pak would also win in SL, ball often swings a bit

Averages indicate a lot, I agree not everything. Philander is better than any Indian pacer except maybe Dev. Shami hasn't been that good. In Johnson, Lee tier at best, well below Gillespie, Broad tier never mind Waqar, Wasim and Imran. Srinath, Zaheer not even that good

check philander's record outside SENA. it's one of the worst. Shami bowled better away than philander.

philander is a mediocre bowler who is literally the definition of a home bully. SENA bully.

pakistan is definitely not better in south africa. not a chance. pakistan have a terrible track record there. India will outplay them on any bouncy tracks. period. Far better players of bounce. shami is the best bouncer specialist from Asian countries.

Sri Lanka is literally India's bunny. india would annihilate pakistan in Sri Lankan conditons. ball rarely swings.

in odi west indies pitches pitches were bouncy. India would still win there. Modern ones could go either way.

I definitely wouldn't pick phainlader over any of our bowlers in non SENA conditions. For SENA? sure.
 
In tests pakistan atg x1 is easily better, tests are won by fast bowlers and pakistan have three atgs we have none(bumrah can become an atg).

In odis india is marginally ahead, kapil dev is as good as imran as an odi bowler. So pakistan has two atg bowlers in odi but we have bumrah and shami both average near 25 and our batting is in different dimension compared to paks batting lineup.

Sachin, rohit, virat, yuvraj, dhoni 5 all time greats.

In t20is india is better pakistan has 0 atg bats while we have the likes of kohli, yuvi.Pakistans atg bowlers never played t20is so here both teams bowling is equally good
 
I think Pakistan would still win because Test cricket is the pure format without any modern modifications. An all time Pakistan XI would have a batting order certainly able to be on Par/match with India on the same track. India may score 400 runs at the loss of one wicket on Day 1, the same ATG Pakistan side would score 350 for the loss of 2-3 on Day 1.

Batting would be India’s edge, but there is no edge on Day 5 for any team and spinners operating. And ATG Indian team could fall to Swann and Panesar on Day 5 on a dustbowl.

For me Pakistan takes the edge because it’s bowling resources for day 1-2-3 would be much more potent. Whilst India’s current Test bowlers are great, they still have a long time to establish their name as Test ATGs

Plus Imran’s charisma and ability to turn average players into fighters is an important factor. As I said, I believe that you have to have bowlers who can make huge breakthroughs on day 1-2-3 to win Test matches. India’s bowlers are most likely to take the game away from you on Day 4-5 whereas they would just keep their batsmen in the game on the first 3 days of a Test match on Sub continent tracks

let's agree to disagree here. india has a massive advantage in Australian, south african conditions. in dustbowl india has the edge. In pattas it's even.

pak has the edge in swing conditons.

overall pretty equal. slight edge to india.
 
I definitely wouldn't pick phainlader over any of our bowlers in non SENA conditions. For SENA? sure.

I'd pick him over Indian bowlers in SL, WI. He plays a good holding role in Asia which many of those Indian bowlers cannot do in SENA

All of India's bowlers are very short, they can't make good use of bouncy conditions, with the exception of Shami. Shoaib, Wasim will make use of the conditions. I don't know how you can compare Shami as a bowler to Imran, Wasim, Waqar.

India's recent strength in Aus is purely down to their batting. Until this most recent series their bowling has not looked threatening

Surprises here..Picking Philander in Sri Lanka over Indian best bowlers is one of the most dumbest decision one can make. Faf literally stopped bowling Philander in his previous tour of Sri Lanka because he was pretty insignificant there.

I'm not saying he is better in subcontinent, but him in subcontinent is better than many of the indian fast bowlers in SENA

But they will not play in other countries besides India and Pakistan, maybe the UAE.

In that case I’m a firm believer that the toss is crucial in determining the result. Win toss, bat first, look to bowl the team out on day 5. This is the most likely scenario for both teams.

Besides you may need to back your claim with stats about who is likely to be better in SENA conditions, also the context of when the ATG players played their cricket and the bowlers of those countries at the time. Even if you can prove Tendulkar was a more accomplished cricketer in comparison to Inzimam in Australia (Warne and McGrath era), you still cannot use that to prove why India was an inferior Test team against Pakistan up until 2007, the point when they ceased playing each other
 
I'm not saying he is better in subcontinent, but him in subcontinent is better than many of the indian fast bowlers in SENA

Don't agree man!

I mean when we say Philander can hold one end in subcontinent, it means we are assuming we have Steyn or Rabada on other end whom we are relying on to take wickets and release off the pressure.

Now compare it with a Kapil Dev who had to toil it hard alone with some mediocre support bowlers all through his career in SENA countries, of course his numbers will be hurt. Someone like Rabada is not a mediocre bowler in subcontinent just because his support bowler Philander who is as deadly as him in South Africa turns out to be a stock bowler in Asia. It just tells us what the lack of support bowling does.

Same applies for Zaheer Khan as well who went on to become a player of series in England series win in 2007. He was brilliant between 2007-11 but couldn't maintain the form due to injuries. You think of current Indian pace attack overseas- Ishant(post 2013), Shami and Bumrah and their numbers are so much better. These bowlers are certainly better in SENA than Philander is in Asia.

This batting can destroy any fast bowler or spinner.

That’s one hell of a batting line up, no question about it - but also remember and history will bear witness that few fast bowlers in the game would have bowled as many ‘unplayable’ deliveries that could uproot the middle stump of any batsman then peak form Imran, Wasim, Waqar, Shoaib <— look at the dynamics of what they did with the cricket ball when they had their tails up and video evidence is available on YouTube , the batsman on many an occasion did nothing wrong but was just beaten by a delivery that was unreal - yes,including two of the above chaps (Tendulkar and Dravid) in this ATG Indian batting line up as they experienced on consecutive deliveries against Shoaib Akhtar at Calcutta in 99. And Shoaib himself will acknowledge he could not match the magic that Immy, Wasim and Waqar could do.

Not the fault of the batsmen but remember it takes 6 unplayable deliveries from these bowlers at their peaks and the batsmen above only have one life each, which can be over in a single ball. That’s cricket for you.
 
Indian all time would crush pakistan in Australian and south african conditions. Absolutely no chance pakistan beats india there. On pattas india would win there too. turning pitches would be 50 50, more likely a draw.

pakistam would win in England and new zealand.

Hell no.

India won’t bash Pakistan all time anywhere bar dust bowls. Even there Pakistan all time can compete with great batsmen against spin like Miandad, younus and zaheer

India all time would be facing Wasim, Waqar, Imran, Shoaib at there peak in SA and Aus conditions. This is 3 ATG 90 mph + fast bowlers with a 95 mph speedster
 
let's agree to disagree here. india has a massive advantage in Australian, south african conditions. in dustbowl india has the edge. In pattas it's even.

pak has the edge in swing conditons.

overall pretty equal. slight edge to india.

Even India’s best ever bowlers are pretty average if you compare them to Imran, Wasim and Waqar
 
All credit to indian bowlers for last Australia series but that was an awful batting line up low on confidence
 
All of India's bowlers are very short, they can't make good use of bouncy conditions, with the exception of Shami. Shoaib, Wasim will make use of the conditions. I don't know how you can compare Shami as a bowler to Imran, Wasim, Waqar.

India's recent strength in Aus is purely down to their batting. Until this most recent series their bowling has not looked threatening

Doesn't matter. wasim and waqar have never been effective on Australian and south african conditions. India can bat them out of the game with their bowlers.
 
Hell no.

India all time would be facing Wasim, Waqar, Imran, Shoaib at there peak in SA and Aus conditions. This is 3 ATG 90 mph + fast bowlers with a 95 mph speedster

but Pakistan's batting is too pot in those conditions. History suggests so. India just have a better track record to succeed in those wickets. India would beat pakistan due to their superior batting lineup in those particular conditions. Pakistan have the better bowling for those conditions? check shoaib and waqar's average there. Rhey are horrendous there.
The bowling would actually be pretty close in bouncy wickets with the edge to pakistan for now until bumrah gets into the ATG list.
Even with the slight bowling edge for bouncy wickets, India will win due to the big advantage in batting and definitely fielding.

Now do you think Immy, Wasim and Waqar would have been able to do the same magic with all cameras around them? Just be honest with yourself.

Starc was doing magic, not to the same extent, but still doing it. Magic simply dissapeared when cameras were focused on Aus team to make sure that they don't do magic.

Shoaib was actually pretty skilful bowler. I think he would have been lot more successfull in 80s and early 90s with the same skill set. He wasn't just about pace.
 
Even India’s best ever bowlers are pretty average if you compare them to Imran, Wasim and Waqar

Indian bowlers have a long way to go to match standards set by IK, Wasim and Waqar.

To answer this thread, I think it will come down to Indian inferior bowlers bowling to Pakistani inferior batsmen. It's hard to predict for me. I think at this moment it's a slight edge to Pakistan, but it's shifting Indian way by passing decades.
 
A very important aspect people tend to ignore (especially Indian fans),

All Cricket experts would include the following names in an all time India XI: Tendulkar, Dravid, Dhoni, Laxman, Sehwag, Harbajhan, Kumble. Undeniably these would be 6 out of 11 names in the side. However you must bare in mind that Pakistan has beaten India a few times with all of these big names in the side, and this was without its ATG top 4 bowlers. Pakistan has defeated sides with all of those legendary batsmen with bowling attacks consisting of Shoaib Akhtar, Mohammad Asif, Rana Naved, Mohammad Sami, Shabbir Ahmed, Danish Kaneria.

None of these names would make the Pakistan ATG side, unless someone wants to play the 4th pacer and pick Shoaib Akhtar or Mohammad Asif.

Pakistan has also piled on runs against India with Kumble and Harbajhan bowling very long spells in the sub continent. Younis Khan and Mohammad Yousuf’s marathon innings on a number of occasion against this pair are not forgotten. Inzimam was also a very good player of spin without a doubt.

Kohli in place of Laxman.

And I think in 2000s decade, India have better test record than Pakistan. They won 2 test series compared to Pak's 1 and they had batsmen like Inzy, Yousuf, Younis and Akhtar.

I agree. We will need our three fast bowlers to be atleast at the level of Kapil to be considered good enough to beat Pakistan in test cricket.10 years down the line- Kapil, Bumrah and maybe Shami. Right now it's good but need more improvement with Kapil, Zaheer and maybe Shami. Let Bumrah play 50 tests.

In batting, we are much better though. Pakistan have some great batsmen but none the equivalent of Sachin, Gavaskar and Kohli and none as good as Dravid overseas.
 
My ODI team based on match winners.

Sachin Tendulkar
Virender Sehwag
Virat Kohli
Rahul Dravid
Yuvraj Singh
MS Dhoni (wk)
Kapil Dev (ar) (c)
Madan lal (ar) / hardik pandya
Harbhajan (sp) / Kumble
Bumrah
zaheer / Shami

Saeed Anwar
Shaheed Afridi
Inzamam
Zaheer Abbas
Moin Khan (wk)
Imran Khan
Wasim Akram (c)
Saqlain
Mushtaq
Waqar Younis
Aquib Javed / Sarfraz

Strong Pakistan bowling but countered by strong Indian batting
Indian bowling probably slight ahead against that batting of Pakistan . Part timers like sehwag yuvraj and Sachin can be effective too

Just my view, close game and india will edge it in a bilateral series

I said 7/11 names include Laxman

Kohli
Bumrah
Gavaskar
Zaheer Khan

Are the remaining 4. Yes India won slightly more Tests but the top 6/7 batsmen in their ranks where not impossible to get out with the bowling attack Pakistan had

When you add peak Imran, Peak Wasim, Waqar and Qadir into the occasion, it becomes a much, much more difficult proposition to deal with
 
Sachin Tendulkar
Rohit Sharma
Virat Kohli
Sourav Ganguly
Yuraj Singh
M S Dhoni
Kapil Dev
Anil Kumble
Harbhajan Singh
Javagal Srinath
Zaheer Khan

Vs

Saeed Anwar
Kamran Akmal [wk]
Zaheer Abas
Javid Maindad
Mohammad Yousaf

Nope. You missed Kapil Dev there.

Sehwag

Dhoni

Kapil
Zaheer/Shami

So, 11 total.

Hello and Greetings to Every one. This is Raja Danish from a small and rich city of Kharian(District Gujrat, Pakistan). I am a keen follower of Cricket and Football.
With CoronaVirus outbreak all over the world and staying in home these days, I thought to post a threas today. This is probably my second thread which I am going to post.

2: Zaheer Abbas
3: Mohammad Yousuf
4: Javed Miandad
5: Inzamam Ul Haq
6: Imran Khan(Captain)
7: Moin Khan(Keeper)
8: Wasim Akram
9: Saqlain Mushtaq
10: Waqar Younus
11: Shoaib Akhtar

Indian Odi XI:

1: Sourav Ganguly
2: Rohit Sharma
3: Virat Kohli
4: Sachin Tendulkar
5: Yuvraj Singh
6: MS Dhoni(Captain/Keeper)
7: Kapil Dev
8: Anil Kumble
9: Zaheer Khan
10: Javagal Srinath
11: Jasprit Bumrah

Which one is the better team overall and who will win??

Pakistan and it is not even a question, to be honest...

We have had classy bowlers and steady batsmen.

Pakistani will say Pakistani.

indian will say india.

in odi india is ahead.
in t20 india is ahead.

in tests it's close but india still ahead now with the likes of shami bumrah and one of the other oldie legends.

To be honest though while India has the better batsmen there is not a huge difference if you cherry pick Pakistan’s top greats i.e Saeed Anwar, Javed Miandad, and Inzamam. Pakistan’s greater struggle has historically been producing batsmen to support its great batsmen which will not be a problem if we cherrypick the best together. Look at how Babar is supported right.

However there is a huge difference in quality between Wasim, Imran, Shoaib (who will make numerous all time XIs from different cricketers) and Zaheer, Bumrah, Shami (from whom only Bumrah can make it if we assume he continues performing like this for the next ten years). Even then I have yet to see Bumrah demolish a world class lineup so far, although the potential is there.

I don’t think it is right to say Pakistanis will say pak and Indians will say India. Objectively, Pakistan’s side is far more balanced and I would concede to this even if I were Indian

Not sure i agree with any of this. I'm talking purely in the context of the thread here.

Pakistan don't have the batting history that India have, but a few very high quality batsmen have come through. When you pull all of them from their different eras and place them within the 11 then suddenly you have a very strong top 6. I'd evaluate that they are slightly outmatched by India's superior top 6.

Bowling isn't even a question and would be like comparing Ferrari's and tricycles.

I'm unsure how you conclude India is ahead to be honest. The batting isn't going to have a big enough edge enough of the time to make up for the canyon sized chasm in bowling ability.

in odi and t20 india is well ahead. I think it's pretty obvious.

In big tournaments many of Pakistan's top bowlers failed often.

in tests it's close. With the addition of srinath bumrah and shami india would be able to compete with pakistam comfortably.

Remember india had weak bowling only because there was at best 1 good bowler at a time. Poor first change bolwing options increased their averages. Now with all of the top players in the same team, india close the gap on pakistan and would be able to beat them even in tests due to superior batting lineup and marginally weaker bowling lineup.

in odi and t20 india is well ahead. I think it's pretty obvious.

In big tournaments many of Pakistan's top bowlers failed often.

in tests it's close. With the addition of srinath bumrah and shami india would be able to compete with pakistam comfortably.

Remember india had weak bowling only because there was at best 1 good bowler at a time. Poor first change bolwing options increased their averages. Now with all of the top players in the same team, india close the gap on pakistan and would be able to beat them even in tests due to superior batting lineup and marginally weaker bowling lineup.


On one team you have 5 of the most talked about bowlers in the world. Wasim, Waqar, Shoaib, Imran Khan and Saqlain Mushtaq.

On the other side to face them you have Zaheer Khan and Javagal Srinath.

If you think this consists of a 'marginally weaker bowling line up' then this is pretty laughable. But the more i think about it i feel you are just trying to troll.

how is it laughable. We are talking about indian conditions when the two teams will face each other. waqar average 49 vs india
shoaib is not much better.

shami and bumrah plus srinath or zaheer are more than good enough to compete with Pakistan's overrated bowling in Asian conditions. India's batting is far better in Asian conditions as well. Not to mention India also have two of the greatest spinners in Asian conditions.

You want to check ashwin and jaddu bhai's average in Asia? if average is everything for you?

The best indian team would beat the beast pakistan team in odi and t20 comfortably. They can't even beat us in a world cup game.

in tests it's even bit with all top bowlers of india from current generation, kapil and srinath it would be much harder to beat india in Asia. Simply ruthless killer instinct in Asian conditions.
