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.

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.

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.

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.

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

3. Inzy

WG was a fatass.
I am afraid you are way off the mark there. W.G.Grace was a fat ass much later in his career. He played for a long time. If you see he pictures in his early 20s and early 30s, you will notice the well built man. He is known for power hitting as well.

W.W.Armstrong too was a huge and powerful cricketer. If you just take a look at any old picture of W.W.Armstrong, you will see how the likes of Afridi and Powell will look small in his presence. Maybe they can hit harder but these guys were definitely strong as well.
