Greatest Indian Test XI of the 21st century in Australia

#2 Murali Vijay

The Tamil Nadu lad has been a real hope for Indian batting order at the top in this decade. He has managed to score runs in both England and Australia. His temperament is his weapon and has been nicknamed as 'monk' by his teammates.

Vijay, although has toured Australia only once in his career has scored staggering 482 runs at a brilliant average of 60.25 in 4 matches. He scored a brilliant hundred at Brisbane and had accumulated 4 50s in a single tour.

Though he was dropped from the England tour after first two matches he bounced back after a successful stint in English country cricket. He has already scored a century in the practice match before the series and this will be a great boost for India this time with them trying to win the series for the first time against a weak Australian side.
