Quarterfinal Round
We shall define a legend of cricket on the basis of the following criteria:
- An influential figure who made a significant impact on the way the game is played on the field.
- An influential figure who remained involved in and made significant contributions to the game off the field.
- A hero or an icon who served as an inspiration for others (cricketers as well as the general public) and will be remembered for years to come.
- Remember that a legend is defined not merely by cricket records but also by aura, impact and legacy.
Second Quarterfinal
Geoff Boycott (opening batsman, part of rebel tours, outspoken commentator)
versus
Richie Benaud (leg-spinning all-rounder, never lost a series as captain, journalist, commentator)
This battle will close after 24 hours.

So early????????? You do realise this is the Last 8. I'm a big fan of Boycs myself but wouldn't have put him in the Top 8 Legends of all time especially when you consider even the Immortal Jack Hobbs didn't make it this far.
