Cricket Oscars

[Mingster]

Saw on Cricinfo there will be awards voted by the players.

Catergories are Best ODI and Test player.
Best emerging ODI and Test player.

But those are the ones I care about.

 

[Deja moo]

Too few categories.

 

[masterblaster]

I would go for Rahul Dravid as best test player, but that's just me.
Best emerging test player should go to Steve Harmison, but that's just me again.

 

[Mingster]

Best emerging ODI player should go to Hamish Marshall or Michael Clarke.

 

[bennyr]

Best emerging ODI player should go to Hamish Marshall or Michael Clarke.

Let's leave Clarke off the list until he actually proves himself.\


(Since Ged has been banned I will hurl expletives at myself.)

It's emerging he does not have to have proven himself yet.

I would say he is a firm favorite along with a few others.

The award's also has two other catagorys best indervidual ODI & Test performance's.

Best emrging test player: Harmison

Best test player : Dravid

Best ODI player :?

Best Emerging ODI player : ?

Best test team : ?

Best Odi Team : Australia

 

[Mingster]

And Spirit of Cricket award as well.

And Spirit of Cricket award as well.

Which assures me that the Aussies wont be sweeping all categories.

 

[iamdavid]

Will be interesting but the players will probably view it as yet another meaningless award.

For me best test player would go to Murali , best emerging test player to Harmison.

Best ODI player could go to any of the Australian top 3 , Tendulkar , Sehwag , Murali....or a few others , best emerging ODI player to Irfan Pathan or Michael Clarke.

While I think Australia would sweep the best team awards for both forms of the game & Sri Lanka the Spirit of cricket award.

Why the (M) ? You think people are going to confuse him for Rikki Clarke ?

Exactly. Rikki Clarke has taken the ODI world by storm. :straightface:

 

[marc71178]

Well England released him from their squad yesterday in plenty of time to get to the Twenty20 game, but Surrey declined to select him!
