    ODI All Rounder Poll - Discussions

    I don't want to impose restrictions on any polls, but perhaps a wpm figure > 1 might be fitting.

    ODI All Rounder Poll - Discussions

    This is the thread to comment on voting and naming players you see as over/underrated. I will find your input useful when it comes to formulating my own rankings.

    ODI All Rounder Poll

    Back by request for an ODI All Rounder Poll. As usual, list 3 names in order for each round of voting. Any discussions should be in the ODI All Rounder - Discussions thread that I will open. All rounders play a crucial roll in ODIs so, if there is sufficient intertest, we might go beyond the...

    ODI Auction Draft v.2025 (Stipulation Based)

    Damn. Holding was on my short list. I'll say a few words if I get another penalty.

    CW ODI Voting is there bias?

    I certainly wasn't expecting 10 players from each of 8 countries. Australia's dominance over time rightly gives them the largest number while India's more recent form deserves over 10 representatives. My question is, are Pakistan, South Africa, West Indies, Sri Lanka and New Zealand all that...

    ODI Bowlers Poll - discussions

    Our Top 40 (41) Poll is complete. It might be interesting to contemplate the factors (Average, SR, EC, Total wickets) that might have influenced our voting. Here is a table the Top 10 in each factor plus the actual Top 10 as voted. Average Strike Rate Economy Rate Total Wickets As Voted...

    That's what I'm hoping so my half dozen 'donuts' disappear (though one is an injured player).

    In my rush to post the final results, I forgot to thank all those who voted during the stages of this poll and to thank those who alerted me to typos I may have made.

    CW ODI Voting is there bias?

    The 'Discussion' threads are where I find info on overlooked players. From that point of view it broadens one's knowledge of contenders. Re an all-rounder poll (and later a 'keeper poll) I will start the AR one next week.

    CW ODI Voting is there bias?

    Looking at both our ODI battting and bowler polls, it is interesting to see the distribution of players voted "in" and the countries they represent. Not surprisingly, Australia's record in finals sees a certain domination in these polls. Of the 81 players voted in during these polls, 20 are...

    This is a fair analysis. However, we already have spinners voted "in" whose credentials (stats) stand up to scrutiny. Brad Hogg also has far better figures,

    ODI Bowlers Poll - discussions

    This is a good point. It would appear that Andy Roberts was voted in relatively lowly because of relatively few (56) games. His average (20.36) is one of the more impressive figures. Likewise, Bob Willis has been totally overlooked (apart from my votes) despite averaging 24.60 and having a...
