Crew of Black has the best team.

 

[Cricketman]

Tell me about it. The best openers, the best finishers, one of the best pacers, and one of the best allrounders. Well done.

 

[King Cricket]

Crew of Black has the best team.

I would say Met has the best team. BTW, where's Met? Haven't seen him around for quite a while.

Nope, Crew of Black's team is undoubtablly better then Metalliacs.

 

[King Cricket]

^ Imran, Hadlee, Gambhir, Dravid, Hussey, McGrath, Bracken, Amborse, Alec Stewart- strong enough.

Sachin Tendulkar > Rahul Dravid
Dean Jones > Michael Hussey
Damien Martyn > Gautam Gambhir
Andy Flower > Alec Stewart
Shane Bond > Any his bowlers in ODI's

Plus, you've got Andrew Flintoff & Malcom Marshall are the bowlers and Lance Klusener & Michael Bevan are among the best ODI cricketers of alltime.

 

[King Cricket]

Alright, I agree with all your logics except for one. How can Dean Jones be better than Michael Hussey? Their averages are hugely different. So are their strike-rates and everything. And you must be aware that Hussey averages nearly 55 in ODI cricket which is something truly amazing.

Dean Jones wrote the book on one-day cricket - literally. He played a new game in which he walked down the pitch to fast bowlers (without a helmet), ran frenetically between wickets and turned outfielding into an attacking occupation. Dean Jones was a far better ODI cricketer then Michael Hussey.

In Jones' era, a strike-rate of 70 was like a strike-rate of 80-85 in the modern age. Jones was named in Australia's best ever ODI side. Jones was basically like the Kevin Pietersen of his era.
