No offense, just want to tell facts: Anshuman made his debut in a series at home against WI in 1975. He did play in the famous chase where India scores 406 for 4 to win. He scored 28. Thanks.
All the three have made wonderful contribution to the World cricket. Who will forget the effort of Anshu as an opening btsman in 1976 against West Indies when he was hit all over the body facing those thunderbolts delivered by Michel Hloding and Co. which paved the way for winning that match in which India scored 402 runs and won the match. Feat of Hadlee has not been any less. He was the highest wicket taker in the test crcicket. As regards Kiri his wicket keeping abilities were hism greatest asset besides that he was a gutysy batsman who would not give his wicket easily.
