Viv richards picks top 5 indian cricketer: The great batsman Viv Richards has talked about the five greatest batsmen of Indian cricket. Let us know that Vivian Richards is considered the greatest player in the world. In such a situation, whenever Richards talks about cricket, the fans want to know about them. Now Richards has chosen five great batsmen of India. The great Vivian Richards has named the five best cricketers of Indian cricket on podcast on a YouTube channel called Cyrus Says. Former West Indies veteran has given Sunil Gavaskar at number one, Viv Richards on Sachin Tendulkar at number two, Virat Kohli (Viv Richards on Virat Kohli) at number three Dravid) and VVS Laxman (Viv Richards on VVS Laxman) at number five. In the podcast, Vivian Richards has called Sunil Gavaskar as Greatest of All Time.

Regarding Gavaskar, Richards said that, I have been fortunate that I have seen Sunny the most. I used to stand in slip and have seen his batting close to him. I wonder why people like Sunny the most. This is because he has batted well against the world’s most dangerous bowlers and scored 14 centuries and that too without wearing a helmet,

Richards further said that, after Sunny, the batsman who came into Indian cricket has had Gavaskar influence. I have always been a fan of Indian batsmen. Earlier in 1970s, when I was a child, I used to hear about Dilip Sardesai on the radio. I remember when India won the first Test match, I heard about this match on the radio. Dilip used to hear about Sardesai’s batting. They have also been icons. There are inspectors for me.

Apart from this, Richards said that if we talk about West Indies cricket, then players like Rohan Kanhai and George Headley have been inspired in my early days. In those days George Headley was called Black Bradman. Richards said that, Headley was the biggest inspiration for me. He played only 22 Tests and scored 10 centuries. 5 half -centuries were also included. (Viv richards on george alphonso headley)
