Draft: Best of the Rest in ODIs - The 2000s

With Shakib Al Hasan and Mashrafe Mortaza gone, the only Bangladeshi worth having IMO is :ban: :bwl: Abdur Razzak. Only one fewer wicket than Bangladesh's leading wicket-taker in the 2000s, and in 12 fewer innings. Better average, better economy.

I could've gone with another name to fill out the Bangladeshi quota, but I'd like to keep my openers' spots free for now. There ain't no way I'm picking Nagin Mian.

Stealer picks by everyone there whom I was eying next in lines.

I will go for Wasim and Gibbs, both of them have good stats for the decade, the former can be picked in any decade he was part of regardless time and the latter has record of 6 sixes.

1. :aus: :wkb: Adam Gilchrist
2. :saf: :bat: Herschelle Gibbs
5. :eng: :ar: Andrew Flintoff
8. :pak: :bwl: Wasim Akram

Ajantha Mendis he was mystery star still end of 2009, the number's says it all. 78 odi wickets in 32 matches with bowling average of 17, probably best for a spinner during that period. In 2008 he won ICC Emerging Player of the Year.

Very happy to have him in this draft.

@CerealKiller @ahmedleo414 you guys are next.
