What about Deadly's fielding? Or Barnes' for that matter?

think the people using cricinfo need to take their indian tinted glasses off

7% for sir viv is a joke, the only player i would have ahead of him is de villiers

Only KP and Flintoff would be knocking on an all time World XI door, and they'd be turned away.

Gooch
Stewart
Trott
Gower
KP
Colly
Botham
Flintoff
Swann
Gough
Broad

i'll get flamed for this but Collingwood doesn't make it into an all-time XI for me

he was decent for a long-ish time but not sure an average of 35 gets you into an all-time XI

Trescothick
Stewart
Trott
Pietersen
Flintoff
Fairbrother
Collingwood
Botham
Swann
Gough
Sidebottom

Colly's my fielding all rounder.

He was a good part time bowler. I wouldn't argue too much if Smith, Hick, Fairbrother, or Morgan were ahead of him though.

Sidebottom. Good pick. Ryan not Arnie? :-)

by **Arthur Crabtree** » Sat Mar 07, 2015 8:26 pm

Gooch, Thorpe and Hick are near misses.

Ryan didn't play that many ODI's. Prematurely axed, as demonstrated at the WT20.

Splinters will be seething at no Dennis Amiss.

by **Arthur Crabtree** » Sat Mar 07, 2015 8:47 pm

Did he play ODIs?

I'm presuming he did, as splinters always picks him in his side.

by **Arthur Crabtree** » Sat Mar 07, 2015 8:52 pm

Eighteen. Four hundreds and a fifty.

Could he ramp it/hit it over the Lord's pavilion?

Obviously 'statistics' aren't important on this occasion- England's leading ODI scorer isn't there.

Robin Smith - highest score of 167 still not been beaten either.

Strauss was a very under rated ODI player too. Passed 150 twice I think, including the last WC.

England's batting averages against what are now full member sides, minimum 2000 runs.
