All-time Indo-Pak greatest Test XI
In Tests, Pakistan lead head-to-head with 12 wins, while India have 9 wins under their belt.
2. Sunil Gavaskar
Sunil Gavaskar is a name that every fan in the world is familiar with. He was the first even batting icon that India had produced. Before the likes of Sachin Tendulkar and Virat Kohli, it was Sunil Gavaskar who took the world by a storm with his batting. Sunil Gavaskar was that batting sensation of India who saved India and brought upon them a lot of pride for good fifteen years.
Gavaskar was also the first-ever batsman to score 10,000 runs in test cricket and he achieved this feat back in 1987, way ahead of our time. In his overall test career, Gavaskar has scored 10,122 runs at an average of 51, which shows how good the Mumbaikar was. Gavaskar faced some of the most fierce fast bowlers in his days and that too, without a helmet. He was consistent against the toughest of bowling line ups and was one of the few batsmen who performed against the invincible West Indies side.
Against Pakistan, Sunil Gavaskar was nothing less as he has scored over 2000 runs against the arch-enemies at a healthy average of over 56. His sheer class, consistency, and technique, made him one of the best batsmen of all time. It is impossible to leave the original little master out of the Indo-Pak Test XI.
