Best Players?

[neilthomas89]

Who do we think the best Batsman, Fielder and Bowler in the world are. You don't need to go on statistics its just an opinion, i personally feel that Tendulkar is the best Batsman
Collingwood is the best Fielder
McGrath is the best Bowler
add your opinion

 

[squiz]

Best Batsman: Brian Lara
Best Bowler: Shane Warne/Glenn McGrath
Best Fielder: Andrew Symonds


Look at my bias shining through

[bharat]

For me
Best bowler:Wasim Akram

Best Fielder:Mohammad Kaif

Best Batsmanravid??

Best Alrounder:Kapil Dev

 

[andrew_nixon]

Wasim Akram and Kapil Dev aren't really current players......

 

[MWaugh]

bat would be lara on his day - otherwise tendulkar - both are a class above
bowling would be warne and mcgrath
best fielder in the world would be symonds but the arm on chris gayle is something i have never seen before - complete power

 

[neilthomas89]

Okay we all have our opinions but are we all agreed that Flintoff is the best all rounder in the world, and im not being biased

 

[themuel1]

Yep Flintoff is the best All-rounder in the world

 

[andrew_nixon]

With Flintoff, if he has an injury which prevents him from bowling, he is goo enough to play solely as a batsman. Plus he is also able to get into the team as just a bowler. That is the true mark of an all-rounder in my opinion. You wouldn't pick Kallis as a bowler, and you wouldn't pick say, Shaun Pollock as a batsman.

 

[neilthomas89]

we could start a vote on this and see how many people agree with us that Flintoff is the greatest all rounder, do we think he is better than botham though?

 

[andrew_nixon]

Definitely not as good as Botham, but he's getting there.

 

[neilthomas89]

how far off Botham would you say he is, and which aspects does he need to make improvements to in order to reach that standard?
Flintoff lights up the cricket game and gets the crowd going, he is more than a cricketer, he is an entertainer!

 

[Sureshot]

his bowling should be going less down the legside.

best fielder though is collingwood with gibbbs not far behind.

bowling- McGrath or pollock

batting- lara, Ponting Pietersen
