A place to list players who could have been great but something happened or there was some reason why they did not.
If there are enough responses Id like to see what an XI would look like.
Just a few off the top of my head (obviously influenced by modern players)
Archie Jackson
Reason- Died
Vinod Kambi
Reason- Personality and Attitude
Brett Schultz
Reason- Injuries, Injuries, Injuries
Graeme Hick
Reason- Handled badly, Unrealistic Expectations, Mental Weakness
Nantie Hayward
Reason- Injuries and Attitude
I am ignoring SA cricketers from the 70s and 80s due to the fact that there are a lot who could have made the list and there is a blanket reason why they did not succeed.
There must be many more..
