Raman,even if you made such a list of only great Indian cricketers then I am sure Shrikant,Vishvanath,Prasanna,Venkatraghavan,Balaji,T.shekhar,srisant,VVS Laxman,Shiv Ram Krishnan,Venkatpathi Raju and sudhakar Rao from your motherland would be the first elevan players.Gavaskar and Tendulkar would probably make 12th and 13th positions,but I am not sure.
I have very carefully omitted Anil Kumble and Rahul Dravid from this list to give deserving representation to the south zone players,as these two are outsiders.
