Adam Gilchrist and Michael Vaughan played start one, bench one, sell one between Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and MS Dhoni.
Former Australia great Adam Gilchrist and former England captain Michael Vaughan had their say on a very tricky question. The duo - who appear together on the Club Prairie Fire podcast - were posed a question that is certain to divide the hearts of many fans. Start one, bench one, sell one between Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and Mahendra Singh Dhoni, for their own hypothetical franchise. Despite being given the Herculean task, Vaughan broke down the situation and gave a rather surprising answer.
"I'm playing MS Dhoni. I don't think anyone's been better," said Michael Vaughan, appearing alongside Gilchrist in an interaction with the cricket.com YouTube channel.
"MS is a captain," he reasoned, as to why he had picked him over Kohli.
"I'm getting rid of Virat. He's never won the IPL. Rohit Sharma is a six-time winner. MS Dhoni is a five-time winner," he said.
Vaughan said that Rohit Sharma would be on the bench for him, as a substitute for MS Dhoni.
