Battle of Cricketers - CW's Favorite Cricketer

GIMH

Norwood's on Fire
Stuart Broad
Kevin Pietersen
Luke Wright

f_o_s beat me to two of mine, had to edit
 

Nate

You'll Never Walk Alone
Fantastic idea Pratters! Really hope some non Tendulkar, Bradman, Warne, etc players progress and that people vote on taste rather than success.

Trent Copeland
Phil 'The Prince' Hughes
Brett Lee

(also keen for)
Shakib Al-Hasan, Steve Smith
 

Stapel

International Regular
Andrew Flintoff
Chris Gayle
Edgar Schiferli



Ever since the BBC lost TV-rights to SKY, my access to cricket was reduced to zero. It was Flintoff, and pretty much Flintoff alone, who dragged me back into cricket.

Chris Gayle is on the list for being the coolest cricketer around and for captaining my favoroutie team. Edje hit the winning runs against England at Lord's.

Tbf they're some of the most likeable players as well as the best. I don't think there's much danger of yer Harbhajan Singhs making it too far :p.
