I gave him a token vote but I think I was the only one

Getting the feeling I was the only one to vote for Frank Worrell

This was an utter lie as it turns out. It is done, and will be up in a moment.

Well, that's probably because you have his batting contemporaries higher. For me, Ponting is the highest placed of all those when you factor in his all-time batting, all-time fielding and record breaking captaincy. I think by the time he retires I'll feel more than comfortable putting him higher up.

Nah, as far as I remember, I only have Tendulkar (and obviously, Bradman) higher. And SRT and RTP were within 2 spots of each other. I can't agree with the list in that it implies that if Bradman didn't exist, the best Australian batsman of the post war era wouldn't even make the top 20.

Ikki · 12-12-2009, 03:38 AM

Well, it's debatable if he is the best. And between him and Bradman, I have Gilchrist, Warne, Lillee, McGrath and Chappell ahead of him. Then again, there are players from other countries to consider also

. As aforesaid, I'll probably rate him higher once he retires and I can look at his career in whole.

What's so sad about that?

Oh sorry, I left out Miller. I said before I have Miller at 7 and Ponting at 16.
