Which international cricketer do you most resemble on the field?

[Tom Halsey]

Bolwing: a leg-spin version of Fidel or Tait. Round-arm. Huge turn, but accuracy does suffer when I don't get it right.

Batting: an early Flintoff.

Fielding: Tuffers unfortunately!

 

[Neil Pickup]

Bowling: Alok Kapali
Batting: Chris Martin
Wicket Keeping: Geraint on an off-day
Captaincy: Sarfraz Ahmed
Coaching: Greg Chappell
Umpiring: Aleem Dar

My defense is probably closest to Gavaskar, but when I attack its usually like Viv Richards, while my bowling is a combination of Malcom Marshall and Dennis Lillee (or Imran Khan on an off day). However, I like to dabble in legspin, which tends to be similar to Shane Warne at Kumble pace.

In the field, its probably close to Gary Sobers in the slips.

 

[Barney Rubble]

Bowling: Alok Kapali
Batting: Chris Martin
Wicket Keeping: Geraint on an off-day
Captaincy: Sarfraz Ahmed
Coaching: Greg Chappell
Umpiring: Aleem Dar

Alok Kapali has a Test hat-trick.

 

[Robertinho]

Well, in all honesty, my dogged defence has had me noted as a right handed Jacques Rudolph, but **** at batting. Also, my looping offie action is a bit like Warney's leggies - but once again, ****.

Batting- I would say Aamir Sohail, though sometimes i try to copy Chanderpaul if i am facing a quick bowler.

Bowling- Murali with an even more blatant and intentional chuck .

Edit - just because the word's an image rather than text, it doesn't make it acceptable to post it...

Still, sentiment's right. This thread isn't about Murali...

 

[SirBloody Idiot]

Batting: Andre Nel
Bowling: Matthew Hoggard
Fielding: Ashish Nehra

I'd take that down ASAP, before James gives you an official warning.

You should go play for Kenya. They really need a Sunny-Viv-Malcolm-Lillee-Imran-Warne-Kumble-Sobers type of cricketer.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Physically I probably most resemble Matty Hayden, think he's slightly taller (I'm 6' 1") but we're both well built with barrell-chests & broad shoulders. I'd guess his chest is probably more solid than mine tho...

Batting wise I'm a mirror image of Tres in as much as I don't hold with footwork too much. I rely on my eye, which is turd. As a bowler I'm like a far slower Martin Bicknell; I amble in & bowl my slow-medium lollipops just back of a length and hopefully bore a few batters out. I'm hoping to play more this year; my team was relegated last year & more of the, er, able players have moved on.

 

[Matt79]

Scott Muller - can't bowl, can't throw... or indeed bat

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

I'm a right handed Simon Katich, combined with a bit of Graeme Smith. I shuffle across my stumps a whole lot, and have a penchant for the chip over mid-on, like Katich[doesnt always work though]. And I score mainly on the legside, a lot off my pads and from my pull and hook shots.

Bowling is a pretty simple action, front on out-swingers, sometimes can cut back in. My club captain says I have one of the fastest arm actions he's seen, it's kinda quick, makes slower balls hard to pick, but I'm too slow to have an effective one

Fielding, bah, I'm decent over the turf and have good hands, I'm usually either a 2nd Slip or gully or at mid-off/mid-on. I don't know who to compare to.

 

[luckyeddie]

My Granddad says my hair makes my look like Jason Gillespie.

Was that before or after you tarmac'ed his drive?

 

[Kweek]

bowling; ashley giles obviously!
batting: maybe again Ashley? I can bat on off stump, I hate good lenght balls on leg stump!
fielding; no idea, can catch pretty well, ground fielding is pretty good, and v good reflexes.

 

[Adamc]

Batting - Jason Gillespie. Forward defence, occasionally attempt a pull shot and get bowled.
Bowling - not sure, probably someone like Chaminda Vaas. Left arm, very consistent, don't generate a great deal of pace, nothing particularly idiosyncratic about my bowling action.
Fielding - Mark Taylor. Close catching is pretty good, ground fielding not great.

 

[luckyeddie]

(used to be)

Batting: Basharat Hassan (if he'd batted left-handed)
Bowling; John Snow (if he'd bowled left-handed)
Fielding: Randall (as in 'Randall and Hopkirk, Deceased')
Lunch/Tea: Inzy

 

[howardj]

Batting: Jacques Rudolph (left-hander: limited shots; small backlift; fairly defensive)

Bowling: Simon Katich (left arm legspin; front-on action)

 

[IqbalJaved]

So does anyone else here " have defence like Dravid and offspin like Vettori " ?
