Did he really chucked?
If he was chucking, Then Why BCCI didn't terminate his ipl career?
Actually i don't know about that incident.

Was banned once iirc and had to remodel his action. Was an Ajmal level chucker in his initial few years and so much more dangerous.

Still a ****ing chucker

A sad day it will be indeed, but it's just t20 cricket. Who cares really?

Yeah. Who would even start a thread about T20 cricketer countdown?

Just thought that the forum is always interested in cricinfo lists, they do a decent job most of the time tbh.

So who all are we saying in the top 22?
WI: Gayle, Narine, Russell, Pollard, Bravo, Pooran
Ind: Bumrah, Kohli, Sky, Dhoni, Rohit, Raina
Pak: Gul, Hafeez, Malik
Aus: Watson, Warner
SL: Malinga
Afg: Rashid
Eng: Buttler, Hales
Sa: De Villiers, Steyn, Miller, Du Plessis
NZ: Munro
Ban: Shakib, Mustafizur

These are 28 guys! And I've probably missed out on 8-10 more.

None of these guys were in my shortlist. Wow.

WoW....... Tbf McCullum is fine, but Vince??

 

[Thala_0710]

WoW....... Tbf McCullum is fine, but Vince??

Another T20 Leagues legend like Christian. I think this is just the greatest T20 players of all time (minus the internationals). So basically just domestic T20 competitions.

T20 sucks.

It's kinda like making a Greatest FC Cricketers List and rating Tich Freeman over Bill O'Reilly.

The Vince selection isn't that weird. Over 400 t20s and he's played in most leagues across the world, being a pivotal batter in those sides. Average and SR are good for a Root/Williamson/Kohli type. Just depends whether these rankings should just be internationals, which as you can tell from the rankings, is flavour or the month stuff.

Dwayne Smith #54

If you can’t make your international side consistently you’re not one of the 25 of all time. No one gaf about league cricket

But their list is specifically league cricket based.

The title then should had been something akin to "25 Greatest T20 League Players" or some **** really.
