In 20 years which of these players will be considered the best? Why?

You can have 3 votes as there are so many options.

The answer is obviously Jadeja.

Seriously, one of Jadeja/Shakib tbh. The others are either too inconsistent/worse to be on the same level and Green is a massive question mark where his career could be anything (especially if you consider injuries can happen).

Ashwin is the greatest bowler, Jadeja the CW fan favourite, CDG the best to watch, Shakib the greatest currently, Holder - Mr Reliable, Stokes the one who has played the most memorable innings, Mitchell the best batsman but struggling with bowling, Green the one with the greatest ceiling (could be a superstar), and golden arm Mayers the player with the best statistics. Also Faheem perhaps lacks the x-factor, and Mulder is yet to show his talent with the bat in the test arena.

Whatever it takes!!!
Purely as an allrounder, Shakib. Maybe followed by Stokes if he can remain less injury hit and bowl more. And Jaddu if he can keep up his batting form without his bowling form dipping.

Aaron Hardie is another young all-rounder from Australia who I reckon will be talked about a ton in 20 years.

He came through the same WA age group setup as green and clearly had a high ceiling from the start of his professional career. Made a 100 vs an attack with Cummins and haze in premier cricket, took a few wickets and made 60 odd vs a touring indian side including the wicket of Kohli in one of his first red ball appearances, dismissed root in a tour game and made a back to the wall 4th day hundred to bail WA out in the 2020 shield season .

Struggled to get a consistent place in the WA side due to injury and other options, but got a consistent GIG last summer and went beast mode. Took wickets for fun at the back end of the last shield season and made 180* in the shield final to win WA the trophy.
Got his maiden A-team callup last week and is doing well for them, took 3/60 and made 65 coming in at 5/60 in his Redball A-team debut and made a solid 60-odd to rescue them from a collapse in one of the white ball games while being extremely economical.

Averages 46/24 in Redball ATM, don't think he'll play too much for Australia if green fulfills his potential, he doesn't seem good enough to play as a frontline bowler and I doubt weyll ever need 2 pace bowling all-rounders in the top 7

Lol at people who think shakibull is better than stokes

Probably better at losing his ****. Even that is questionable when you consider their respective night lives

Does your first paragraph not contradict your last? I doubt he'll be talked about a ton if he barely plays international cricket.

I think this post is going be considered a brilliant post which I reckon will be talked about a ton in 20 years.

There's tremendous scope for it to be a brilliant post, and even at this nascent stage, it compares well to some other posts.

It faltered as a post for a while, but there are other reasons why it could still become one.

But based on the available evidence it hasn't done enough to be considered that brilliant, especially if other posts fulfill their potential. It doesn't seem good enough to qualify as a frontpage post and I doubt we'll need too many posts like this in a top 7
