Can someone get me a list of cricketers born in 2002?

This explains so much

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Well since you got there first

Bizzaro 87 XI
1. Imrul Kayes
2. Alex Obanda
3. Stiaan van Zyl
4. Colin Munro
5. Moises Henriques
6. Matthew Wade+
7. Chris Morris
8. Mark Craig
9. Nathan Coulter-Nile
10. Hamish Bennett
11. Hamid Hassan

12th man: Kieran Noema-Barnett

So many bits and pieces players born in 1987, seriously. What a dire bunch of flash in the pan merchants

yours, 28 for another two days

 

[Teuton]

1979
Chris Gayle
Phil Jaques
Malinda Warnapura
Marcus North
Adam Voges
Daniel Vettori
Prasanna Jayawardene
Abdul Razzaq
Graeme Swann
Ryan Harris
Dilharo Fernando

Some very good players, not enough depth though.

1982
1982 Birthdays - Cricket Players Born in 1982 - Cricketwa.Com

Stephen Cook
Ed Cowan
Tharanga Paranavitana
Ian Bell
Shoaib Malik
George Bailey
Matt Prior
Amit Mishra
James Anderson
Mohammad Asif
Monty Panesar

Slim pickings on batsmen, and a truly ****** tail. A non-fixing Asif and Jimmy would be some opening bowling attack though. Surplus of middling-to-****e spinners like Tredwell, Abdur Razzak, Lokuaracchi, Doherty, Nikita Miller, Johan Botha, Beau Casson etc. Seems to have been a good year for that species of cricketer.

Alastair Cook (C)
Murali Vijay
Faf duPlessis
Ross Taylor

Gautam Gambhir
Shane Watson
Michael Clarke
Brendon McCullum
MS Dhoni+
Yuvraj Singh
Mitchell Johnson
Nathan Hauritz
Dillon du Preez
Doug Bollinger

12th Albie Morkel

Good batting, lack of quality spin bowlers that year. Lots of all-rounders.

 

[andruid]

Not sure which 1987 team I like more

 

[Gremlin]

Here's a possible selection from 1969 births. Maybe a bit light in the pace bowling department,


Sanath Jayasuriya
Nick Knight
Brian Lara
Graham Thorpe
Jonty Rhodes
Craig White
Nayan Mongia
Shane Warne
Simon Doull
Alan Mullally
Javagal Srinath

 

[honestbharani]

Lol @ a the left handers

 

[Red]

lol @ Warne being born in 69

This thread was created for no other reason than Burgey age jokes surely?

 

[Son Of Coco]

1974

Herschelle Gibbs
Michael Vaughan
Ricky Ponting
Mohammed Yousuf
VVS Laxman
Shiv Chanderpaul
Brad Hodge
Heath Streak
Charl Langveldt
Chamida Vaas
Chris Martin

12th Men:
Misbah Ul-haq
Martin Love

A bit light on bowlers. Plenty of batsmen to choose from. Hodge makes his WK debut

 

[adub]

Bit of quality in 1970

Michael Slater
Marvin Attapatu
Justin Langer
Inzamam-ul-Haq
Darren Lehmann
Micheal Bevan
Chris Cairns
Anil Kumble
Courtney Browne (w/k)
Darren Gough
Glenn McGrath

Andy Bichel as the specialist 12th man

along with
Mushtaq Ahmed
Damien Fleming
Chamara Dunusinghe
and Sherwin Campbell as back ups.

Excellent top 6, excellent attack with some handy part timers in Lehmann and Bevo.
**** keepers with Browne shading Dunusinghe. Pissed that the wrong Flower brother was born in 70 or it would be a completely gun side.

 

[morgieb]

Jeez this forum makes me feel young. Only one person who posted a team in this thread is younger than I am.

Unfortunately there are no records for players born in 1792 (there, did it for you).

I know Gough played longer but I'd be tempted to go Brett Schultz instead.

Paul Nixon had a higher FC average than Browne btw

edit: a 1970 2nd XI

1. Sherwin Campbell
2. Grant Flower
3. Matt Horne
4. Neil Johnson
5. Robin Singh
6. John Davison
7. Paul Nixon+
8. Damien Fleming
9. Andy Bichel
10. Mushtaq Ahmed
11. Brett Schultz

Decent bowling year but atrocious batting.

 

[harsh.ag]

Bevan shouldn't be there imo. Cairns at 6. Have two spinners.

 

[adub]

Yeah, nah. Goughy is quality. Bowling at the other end from Pigeon wouldn't have hurt him either.

Deciding to go with Bevo over a fifth bowler was a tougher call.

This explains so much

Actually born in 2004 but I wanted to look older.

I get intimidated here rather easily.
