Final Top 20 List:

2 Tendulkar 215
3 Bevan 160
4 Ponting 129
5 Gilchrist 96
6 Jayasuriya 82
7 Jones 77

= Greenidge 13
16 Hayden 12
= De Silva 12
18 Symonds 8
= Klusener 8
20 C. Cairns 7
= Crowe 7
= Haynes 7

Bevan has snuck passed Ponting for a top 3 placing.

If we do this again in a few years, I wonder if Tendulkar will sneak past Richards.

And I wonder if Hussey will be in the top 10?

First VII:

1. ST Jayasuria
2. AC Gilchrist+
3. IVA Richards
4. SR Tendulkar
5. RT Ponting
6. MG Bevan
7. DM Jones

What makes you put Jayasuriya as the top ODI batsmen of all-time?

 

[Fiery]

What makes you put Jayasuriya as the top ODI batsmen of all-time?

Might have something to with the way he played, the number of runs scored and strike-rate

 

[Migara]

What makes you put Jayasuriya as the top ODI batsmen of all-time?

He may have put according to the batting order

After all the digging I did these past days I've come to really appreciate Tendulkar's ODI record. After all that discourse about Gilchrist and WCs, I feel Tendulkar is still superior now that I've seen it more clearer.

Got 2 hav inzi in ther..the amount of times he rescued Pakistan from 10-2,20-2 ect..

 

[GGG]

I can't believe hardly anyone has Glenn Turner on their list, the chip over the infield pioneer had a ODI average of 47 and for the day a excellent strike rate of 68.

 

[gettingbetter]

I get the feeling that Klusener doesn't get the respect he should.

. I've stopped buying just how Indian cricketers have so so so much pressure and no one else does. I agree, their fans are unreasonable and place a lot of pressure on them. But so do other countries, and that seems not to be respected at all.

Do they burn houses and pour tar oil on close relatives of the players when the team loses in the WC?
