I would be happy to seen M S Dhoni in the list. He is one of the best cricketing talents around who is blessed with quality leadership qualities. And we all know how destructive he can get at times.

First of All thanks for your comments abhi bangal.

I am adding MS Dhoni in top ten list at place of Navjot Sidhu....but I stopped for only one thing.....MS Dhoni is no doubt an awesome and best character having too many qualities of a good cricketer , but the list is made mostly to the great legends of Indian Cricket Team.

I am dead sure at the end of the MS Dhoni and Yuvraj Singh also they will be in top ten category. I hope to you that you will agree on my point.

Thanks.

Yuvraj and Dhoni can be included if you consider only the ODIs. They have done nothing in tests to warrant a place in the list of top ten Indian batsmen.
