Instead of the No. 5, Rahul Dravid. Otherwise, the list is good. Wait, no Mathew Hayden and Jayasurya?

Mathew Hayden and Jayasurya are left handed. Just like Brian Lara who was ignored by my error.
Brian Lara had three shots to a ball bowled. Early, slightly late and more late. These three due to arcs he makes while batting. This is what I feel.
Mohammed Azharuddin is my personal choice. And political too.
Sachin Tendulkar at number 10? My favorites are batsmen who play on the rise with agile footwork. That is why 10 to Sachin, which anyway is his jersey number.
