The month of August has been a sad one for India. We have had to bear the loss of cricket legend Cheten Chauhan as well digest the news of both MS Dhoni and Suresh Raina retiring from international cricket. It seems that Indian fans are particularly taken back by the retirement of the former captain /wicket keeper and would give anything to see Dhoni play his helicopter shot one last time.

To that note, former Indian all rounder Irfan Pathan has floated an interesting idea. Irfan Pathan would like to assemble a team of former greats and would live to give them one last match. According to Pathan, the time should comprise of the following –

Gautam Gambhir, Virender Sehwag, Rahul Dravid, VVS Laxman, Yuvraj Singh, Suresh Raina, MS Dhoni, Irfan Pathan, Agit Agarkar, Zaheer Khan and Pragyan Ojha.

This Farewell XI team should face off against the current Indian team for a charity cum retirement match.

What do you think? Are you all up for seeing these former legends face off against the likes of Kohli and Sharma?
