World's most Over-rated and Under-rated player!

Cool jokes here haaa. Really love them .

Bretto overrated . What a comment. Love that . I think whoever has posted or agreed to it has been sleeping for last 5 yrs. WC 2003 belonged to LEE. He is currentlys Australia's no.1 bowler in ODI's. Whoever can bowl at 150 Kms cant be overrated at all.

Laxman overrated . Another of ur PJ's . He is a better batsman than even Tendulkar when in flow.Nobody needs to proove it.Surely he doesnt. Just for his 281 can he be regarded as one of the best ever and he will be.

Fleming underrated . Fleming isnt better than M.Kaif or M.Clarke for me. What has that guy achived in 11 years.Also if u think all the field placings r his thought then u r big fool cos thats predecided by coach and managment.

Sangakkara . Wont say much but someone plz check his records against Aussies , Indians and also away from Sri Lanka.Clear picture now I suppose.

For me the whole ENGLAND team is overrated with exception of Gough

To be fair, the person specifically referred to Laxman at the moment.

 
I agree with you on Brett Lee, he is arguably one of the best ODI bowlers in the world ATM

Laxman won't be regarded as one of the best ever, but he is a decent bat

I would probably pick Fleming ahead of Kaif but he certainly gets the ammount of praise he deserves

Sangakkara is a very good bat

And England well...
 
wtf England have Strauss, Flintoff, pieterson, Hoggard, Giles 5 of the best!!
 
oh yeh Hoggard took 26 iirc wickets in the series so he is a great test bowler. Giles is also good.
 
pieterson???

no doubt he is good but u guys think he is among the BEST just after 9 innings???

man I dont understand this logic

Giles isn't even the best spinner in England.
I'd disagree......he doesn't spin the ball much but he has a keen cricketing mind and is quite accurate.......he also has good variations.....for a left arm spinner, which isn't much.....
Besides....he is a more-than-handy batsman.....Beating Flintoff to 100 wickets and 1000 runs...........

Jason Brown, Gary Keedy and Gareth Batty all have good variations, and can spin the ball a lot more than Giles. And all three have better first class averages than Giles over the last two years. Giles is only in the side for his batting.

First class averages include test averages.....and test matches have better quality batsmen than in county cricket......
Unless these three spinners can bowl against the best batsmen in the world and come on top I'll stick to my claim that Giles is England's best spinner. Statistics are largely skewd, and don't tell the real quality of a bowler like Giles.
 
You're right, statistics don't tell the whole story.

If you ever get the oppurtunity to watch the three bowlers I mentioned in action, you'll see how much better bowlers they are than Ashley Giles.

So you've seen them bowl?

999 posts! :happy :)
 
Also Giles can field better than most of them!

the art of Spin isn't about who much you can spin the ball too muhc spin i useless. YOu need just enough to outfox the batsman
