VVS is Warne’s 12th man

New Delhi: Australia’s Shane Warne picked his greatest Indian eleven, comprising players he played against. However, a notable absentee from his list is VVS Laxman, who he named as 12th man. Laxman had a fabulous record against the Aussies and was arguably one of the better players of spin bowling.

Warne’s 'Indian XI': Virender Sehwag, Navjot Sidhu, Rahul Dravid, Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly (Captain), Mohammad Azharuddin, Kapil Dev, Mahendra Singh Dhoni (wk), Anil Kumble, Harbhajan Singh, Javagal Srinath, VVS Laxman.
