I did a search and nothing came up and am wondering what you people thought of the list which was made about six months ago.
To be honest, I think that it is quite poor but with a few good picks.
Michael Clarke is certainly a good fielder (world's best infielder) and is only getting better with the bat in both ODIs and tests. Likewise, Ross Taylor ooses potential with the bat and is a good pick too to carry New Zealand in the future with the bat.
Shaun Tait and Malinga's unusual bowling styles are certain to redefine cricket to some extent but whilst Tait is arguably the fastest bowler in the world; Malinga has lost about 10kph of pace and once the novelty has worn off, he is played quite comfortably by batsman.
Watson is very talented and his agressive batting - which is very successful in Australian FC cricket especially, and efficient RFM bowling is useful, but won't injuries surely tarnish any chance of a prolonged international stint. He seems to get injured every other day, in the hamstring region especially.
Dwayne Bravo is an interesting pick because he is improving quickly and is a useful bits and pieces player but is he really among the 10 best future prospects? I think not - he is more good than great.
Ashraful is a good innovator but will he ever get that consistancy which has eluded him in the ODI game? (And test cricket seems a bit beyond him tbh.) With an ODI average of just 21.79 in the sizeable sum of 97 innings, it seems not.
Suresh Raina is the most baffling pick but potentially a good one. He dominates at Indian domestic level and if his confidence has improved since he first played for India, he could be a good one. He is a strange pick though considering he is not certainly ever going to have an extended run in the Indian team with people like Badrinath, Tiwary and Kaif fighting for that middle order place with him in both forms of the game.
