#4. Ajit Wadekar
One of India's finest batsmen at number three, Ajit Wadekar could change gears with ease to adapt to the conditions. He was solid as steel when the team was in trouble and aggressive and fluent when the team was in a commanding position.
Wadekar was the captain of India's team that won the historic Tests in 1971 against England and West Indies. In 71 Test innings, he has 14 scores of fifty-plus and his average of 31.07 reflects his batting prowess.
