England former off spinner Greame Swann has included Pakistan legendry fast bowler Wasim Akram, hailed as one of the finest pace bowlers of the game in his All-time XI team.
Akram was picked as the 11th player of Swanns All-time XI, "I had to have another left-armer. The Snake Charmer, just for those two balls in the World Cup 1992. Absolute genius," says Swann.
The team includes four Australians (Don Bradman, Adam Gilchrist, Glenn McGrath, Shane Warne), three Englishmen (Jack Hobbs, Swann, James Anderson), three West Indians (Gordon Greenidge, Garfield Sobers, Brian Lara) and one each from India (Tendulkar) and Pakistan (Wasim Akram).
Interestingly, unlike the All-time XI by other cricketers, Swann has picked himself in the team, giving the reasoning, "Graeme Swann, because its my team. Ive got a left-armer, foot hole. Im in."
Whereas, another interesting fact, who will lead the side perhaps Swann himself.
