[Cricketman]

I say the new 'Yuvraj King of Fail' should be renamed to 'Fail Fail Afridi'.

I say the new 'Yuvraj King of Fail' should be renamed to 'Fail Fail Afridi'.

Seeing as Afridi is overall a better cricketer than Yuvraj, no.

 

[shravi]

Seeing as Afridi is overall a better cricketer than Yuvraj, no.

Even Yasir Arafat is a better cricketer overall than Yuvraj Singh . It doesn't mean much.

 

[Insomniac]

Yea it just means UV is crap

 

[Cricketman]

I'd take Yuvraj over Afridi any day of the week.

And at least UV isn't a cheat... we all remember the pitch dancing episode and who can forget him nomming on the cricket ball just a few months ago? And he's CAPTAIN! :laugh

Yuvraj's a fatass now so its all good.

Your picture doesn't work.

Maybe he's been eating a different type of balls...

 

[Prithvi]

Ah guys, stop criticizing Yuvi!
If he is King of Fail, then how come a King of Fail hit 6 sixes in one over and how can he get 50 in just 12 balls!
Ask someone to break that record and I'll accept that Yuvi is king of fail!

Because the bowler was actually just a little girl.

I just asked my mum, now will you accept it?

-D-S-B- added 12 Minutes and 36 Seconds later...

I've got a pretty obvious category.
Best All-rounder: Daniel Vettori

 

[drainpipe32]

Lol good joke. Watson>Vettori

 

[-D-S-B-]

Lol good joke. Vettori>Watson
Their batting is very even in tests over the last 12 months but Watson does edge it in that department. But Vettori's bowling tips it hugely in his favour. Also the fact that he's captain and selector and was coach.

 

[drainpipe32]

Actually Watson has a better batting and bowling average for the last 12 months. Batting by 6 with 200 more runs and bowling by 3, with 20 less wickets. Throw in Watson's 5 more catches, being a better fielder (valuable in the slips) plus the fact he has to face the new ball and bowl with an old one.

 

[-D-S-B-]

with 20 less wickets

That's a lot less wickets, so having a better average doesn't tip it for me, as that just means he bowls a lot less often and doesn't have huge wicket taking pressure on him. He faces the new ball? Well Vettori has the responsibility of resurrecting our innings nearly every time he bats so that puts a lot of pressure on him, and he thrives on that pressure and saves us time and time again. And Vettori aint a bad fielder, so I wouldn't take into account catches, that's just lame because anyone and everyone is expected to take 99/100 catches.
I agree they're both outstanding, but my opinion is Vettori's better and no matter what you say you wont change it, and I guess no matter what I say I can't change yours
Just place your bloody vote on Watson :laugh
