Yes, so?
Rich's only Richards in there was IVA - Sir Vivian Richards.
Not Barry, though I know who I think was the better player.
True, however, my question was about Langeveldt's team where he has Graeme Pollock opening and Barry Richards at no. 6 !!!
From what I have read about the latter, he was pure class and quite possibly better than Viv. Though my team would include both.
My team:
B Richards ---supposed to be one of the best openers ever
S Gavaskar---great technique, good foil for the Richards b4 and after him
Bradman
V.Richards--- the original master blaster
Tendulkar---master blaster II
G.Sobers--- IMHO the best all-rounder ever
A.Gilchrist---a favourite
W.Akram---- another favourite
S.Warne--- one of the best spinners I've seen
D.Lillee--- again, one of the best ever
B.Bedi--- a brilliant spinner from whatever little i've seen of him.
12th man--Allan Donald (depending on the pitch swap with Bedi)
