    Best Wicketkeeper Since 1990?

    Only talking of skill as a wicketkeeper here.Not ability as a batsman. Any keeper who played the majority of his career after 1990 can be included.So a debut in the 1980s is not an issue here. Personally,i'm divided between Rashid Latif and Jack Russell.

    Best T20 Batman and Bowler?

    So i'm on a new thread rage. Anyway,the format is still young.But any picks? I think Umar Gul has to be the best bowler.He is miles ahead of every other bowler in T20.The batsman debate is more tricky though.Umar Akmal,Chris Gayle and Yuvraj could all have a shot.
