People getting a bit carried away by his last 1 and a half years where he has been out of sorts.
But having said that Merchant was quality too, so it's a tough pick.
I'll go with Sunil Gavaskar and Virendra Sehwag because of the way in which Sehwag can hurt the opposition, almost force a result and also put psychological pressure in certain situations. Plus he'll have quality batting in and around him so a bit of leeway in certain situations can be taken.

Yeah don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to suggest he'll fail, it's just that imo Merchant would be better.
