Im afraid Jacob Oram makes all those guys look pretty small.
Hayden is quite a well built guy though, he'd be up there too.

Kuruvilla has retired ...... I think.

The tallest cricketer in the world ATM is Will Jefferson , the Essex opening batsman.
He is 6'10'' , Im sure Halsey can fill you in on him

Ahmed aint that tall , I doubt he's be any bigger than Andy Caddick , Merv Dillon , Glenn McGrath or Adam Griffith.

As for the strongest Id nominate Andy Bichel , he can pick Shane Warne (88kg) up & dump him a couple of metres away.

IMO Obviously you are right , I didnt say biggest
I said Tallest and also Bulky I meant players with considerable fat on their bodies in one way (who dont look like sportsmen ) . Ranatunga is their guru.

Shane Warne · 11-01-2004, 08:45 PM

klusener would be up there i reckon

Eclipse · 11-01-2004, 08:49 PM

Symond's IMO.

He would have to have one of the strongest throwing arm's of alltime and I cant think of any player's currently who can throw the ball as hard as him.

Other's would be Hayden, Flintoff, Bichel, Streak and a few more.

Tim · 11-01-2004, 08:49 PM

Stephen Fleming would be up there as one of the tallest players..but not one of the strongest.

But for height & size, it'd have to be Jacob Oram..I don't think I see anyone else near his size in international cricket anyway.

FRAZ · 11-01-2004, 09:06 PM

IF strength is taken under consideration then what about Shahid Afridi.

Mark Cosgrove, Darren Lehmann

Kapil Dev and Sachin Tendulkar are quite strong.

You can see why Oram played in goal for the New Zealand football team at age level.

Lance Cairns would be strong. Joel Garner was huge.

Marlon Black is built like a heavyweight boxer.

Token · 12-01-2004, 04:00 AM

Pound for pound Parthiv Patel? For his size it's amazing he can even pick up those (illegal?) Indian bats...
