Bext Young XI of 2005-2007

[Prince EWS]

Well i thought of Srisanth but.........i think Plunkitt is more accomplished bowler than srisanth...........wt guys u think????

I'm a rare fan of Plunkett, but Sreesanth has shown infinitely more with the ball at test level thus far really.

Under 27, I can think of the following:

Alastair Cook
Pietersen
Karthik
Dhoni
Watson
Sreesanth
Malinga
Panesar
Tait

Has Sreesanth escaped the ring of mediocrity, then?

No. But he has had a good start, same as guys like Agarkar had. We know where that went though.

Forgive me I dont mean to be picky but under twenty seven doesnt count as young.

He's not picked to bat though.

 

[Prince EWS]

He's not picked to bat though.

Typo, clearly.
(Although it's also true!)

Well, under 27 means more than half their career ahead of them (usually)...so to me thats young.

Taylor? Clarke? Where are they? Malinga?

 

[pasag]

Taylor? Clarke? Where are they? Malinga?

Taylor hasn't played a Test yet tbh and Clarke is over 26 so he misses under 25 and under 26 teams.

 

[shankar]

No. But he has had a good start, same as guys like Agarkar had. We know where that went though.

Which one of the other guys had a good start in Test cricket? They've all been mediocre-poor throughout their careers.

 

[Raghav]

I would like to have AB Devilliers
