Abhishek, India played many matches in INDIA during said time! Also i accept veeru is best INdian opener after gavaskar! But still i cant say that he is legend 
Reason: He Plays IPL more when not needed.. u cant justify this one!
I certainly can justify that. Every player is tied to the contract and cannot deny playing for the club. In fact Viru should be appreciated that he left IPL 4 mid-way (when DD was certainly out) even though he was the orange cap holder. At second position was Tendulkar who was more than 100 runs behind him. Viru was 450+ and no other batsman had even reached 350 runs in the tournament. Had he been selfish he could have played the whole season to get the orange cap, but he decided not to do so and went for a surgery to be fit for the series against England.
And every player is tied to the contract. Sachin plays in IPL but doesn't play in T20s for India and selects the ODI matches he wants to be a part of. Gambhir played the IPL final with an injury. Dhoni plays in every IPL and CLT20 season even though he constantly complaints about a tight schedule and sometimes takes rest from national commitments.

Most of the credit goes to Dravid if you look at in overall barring the statistics and you can't deny that.
As far as test matches are concerned, the only two match winners I have seen are Sehwag and Laxman. Laxman undoubtedly was and still remains the best match winner in tests India has ever seen.
