Players who didn't reach their full potential

[StinkyBoHoon]

I would count ramps.

of lesser players chamara silva has been a constant disappointment. Really should have been one sri lanka's better players, not world class, not even nearly, but he shouldn't have spent most of his career on the fringes out of the squad.

Dilshan arguably took too long to blossom.

There are players who do great in domestic level heaps of runs but when they come to int cricket they fail or not big impression.
like ramparekash asim kamal hasan raza

 

[StinkyBoHoon]

from Sami's performance briefly in australia, and the fact he was getting it up to over 90mph he's someone not making the best of his talent.

 

[drainpipe32]

Ramprakash anyone? Or did he reach his full potential and he is just terrible at the highest level?

Aah, that guy could have been brilliant on the international stage.

Pretty much a Brad Hodge or David Hussey, but got more opportunities, and failed.

Ashley Noffke

Ashley Noffke

Why all the Noffke love? He's not even that good IMO. (judging by stats alone)

 

[rahuldravidfan]

Coz he was brilliant a few years back and he wasn't picked much then. It seems like he's taken it to heart. Having said that, he's a bowling-allrounder these days, which is a significant improvement for someone who was a mug with the bat once upon a time.

I would still pick Noffke coz I believe he is a better bowler than the current fav. Ryan Harris.

Have you even seen him play much for QLD? Honest first class cricketer who was close to the Aussie team but really not good enough, no real pace and swings it rarely, even in his prime. Was first picked in 2001 but too many injuries ruined his chances, a few times his name was mentioned as a replacement but he could never stay on the park or perform when required.

Yea thats true. Noffke only really had a chance of playing test was circa 07/08 - 08/09. He could have very well & gone on tour to South Africa 08/09, but injuries messed him up his chances.

 

[Robelinda]

He toured WI in 2008, that was his last chance, then he got injured again. In 2001 he was next in line in the 2001 Ashes, but he got injured mid tour. Selectors seemed to give up on him.

I'd have to agree with Ramps and Hick?


KP as of yet

 

[ballers101]

^^^somewhat KP I guess because lately I think its been more hes just not playing great of late but considering how he has played before he will be fine eventually. Some players that I know, Sami and Hasan Raza def from Pakistan. David Hussey and Brad Hodge from Australia.
