This is hard for me to pick as I call 2 countries my home. I was born in India and now I'm a Australian citizen.....so I guess can basically mix and match from those 2 countries...........
3 I would put without hesitation would be.......
R. Dravid (superb technique and adaptable to any condition and any form of the game)......My favorite batsman of all time
G. McGrath (most accurate bowler and very consistent)....My favourite bowler of all time, and
M. Waugh (best ever slip fielder or in my mind best ever fielder.....as he could field anywhere and he was awesome, a superb batsman....the most elegant batsman and a handy off-spin/medium pace bowler)....What else does a captain want from a player.....He is my favorite overall player of all-time...

Other 7 players....well I would have to think about that.....lets see....(in no particular order)

D. Bradman (great technique and an unbeliavable average)
S. Gavaskar (one of the best opening batsman of all-time)
S. Tendulkar (very dominant batsman and technically sound)
S. Waugh (man of steel and "ice cool" under pressure)
D. Lilee (great mix of pace and accuracy and, of course, that awesome leg-cutter)
B. Bedi (the best exponent of spin bowling I have seen (only highlights though))
A. Gilchrist (the best ever keeper-batsman in the history of the game)

  1. Don Bradman Cricket 14 - PS3
Just my opinion, but in order to their contribution to cricket in Pakistan:

  1. Imran Khan (made cricket a religion in Pakistan)
  2. Fazal Mehmood (the one who started it all)
  3. Javed Miandad (great batsman under pressure, influenced many)
  4. Wasim Akram (DUH)
  5. Hanif Mohammad (another great batsman in our time of need)
  6. Zaheer Abbas (same as above)
  7. Inzamam-ul-Haq (IMO the best captain since Imran Khan, and I thought so before the recent victories)
  8. Waqar Younis (one of the three best bowlers ever to come out of Pakistan)
  9. Saeed Anwar (classy batsman, will always be one of my favs)
  10. Abdul Qadir (the reason Pakistanis started spinning)

Actually 10 wasn't enough. I wanted to mention him, Srinath, Merchant, and a few more, but only 10 so I picked these, as I have seen them play.

all countries have given atleast 4-5 players which r not resistable. In my opinion i dont think there r any other countires, who has the players with most records, except pak-indian player. pak-indian players r the most record holder players....wut u say...

There is a bit irony involved too, lot of the batting/bowling records are held by indo-pak players but their respective teams have not been very successful when compared to Aussies or the late great WI's.
