    The ATG Teams General arguing/discussing thread

    Fair enough. I also included Fleming largely for his captaincy. Ashwin's away bowling average is much higher than his overall career average if you take away Bangladesh, its 7 runs higher even if you include Bangladesh. The isgn of a player who makes an all time eleven should be that he is...

    Sri Lanka's best batsman in International cricket?

    Dilshan is probably a top 3 limited overs batsman for SL.

    Sri Lanka's best batsman in International cricket?

    Sanga for me, followed by Jayawardene and then Jayasuriya.

    Saeed Ajmal to Retire

    I assume Mike Atherton is remembered fondly because he was English and the English do not cheat....

    I assume you do not rate Warne at all then.

    Is AB de Villiers an ATG?

    Knott in an all time world XI? I do not think so. That place is pretty much nailed down by Gilly, with some argument from Boucher possibly. Dhoni could get a shout in ODIs but I would personally find it difficult to place him above the ozzy. Knott is probably England's finest.

    Charming and Enchanting Wicket Celebrations

    I'd like to add I miss Steyn almost paralysing himself with his violent celebrations. Hopefully he makes a come back soon and we get to see just how much it means to him...albeit with a few lesser injuries.

    Saeed Ajmal to Retire

    A little troubled to see so called cricket fans being such hypocrites. Is it because he did not belong to their national side or is of the wrong tone? I did not see this kind of talk about Warne ever even after being a confirmed drug cheat and even after CA tried to hide away with his bookie...

    Exactly, so my original point stands and your badgering becomes useless. Good day sir.

    The ATG Teams General arguing/discussing thread

    Pretty spot on but I'd have Boult (I know he has had a short career) over Crowie and I'd like to have Taylor in there somewhere.

    Stokes Arrested

    The verdict is what influences the sentencing. Either way I do not believe he should be allowed to waltz back into the test side. Regardless of who he was defending, if indeed he was defending anyone, he should be disciplined off the back of numerous drinking incidents and behaviour. A return...

    Ashes predictions

    I will go a bit left field and say one of England's new batsmen might actually do well....maybe Malan.

    The ATG Teams General arguing/discussing thread

    Before I get onto an Indian XI and the rest of the lesser test sides I wondered what an all time world T20 XI would look like. It is the newest format where players do not have to be great to make an impact. This is something I came up with: 1. C. Gayle WI 2. B. McCullum NZ c/wk 3. V. Kohli...

    Charming and Enchanting Wicket Celebrations

    I particularly enjoy Hasan Ali out of the modern class of players. He has brought energy and exuberance back to a great fast bowling (And celebrating) nation. I dearly missed the Pakistan of my youth, the exuberance of Waqar and Wasim, and later of Akhtar. Hasan is in that mould if quite a bit...

    Is AB de Villiers an ATG?

    And with 10 miles of extra pace. i do not see how statistics are the sole judge of a sporting career. Floyd Mayweather never lost a fight and Roy Jones won more world titles but no one in their right mind lists either above Ray Leonard or Ali.

    The ATG Teams General arguing/discussing thread

    Ah Fazal Mahmood. My father was fond of him and saw his great spell on the England tour. I recently included him in an Asian XI. Yousuf for me is one of the most gifted and all round batsmen of the 21st century and the one who seems to be overlooked far too often. the man doesnt seem to get...
