I can't believe I ate the whole thing
Just looking through the records for 2007. New Zealand played 2 - just 2 tests in 2007. What was surprising though is Australia played only double that, while England played 11.
It's a world gone topsy turvy when Andrew Symonds outscores Ricky Ponting in a calendar year, but thats what happened.
Hayden was the most prolific in ODI's while Sachin Tendulkar just couldn't convert those fifties, nor could Ganguly. Lou Vincent played 15 ODI's and scored 512 @ 36. Gun IMO. But noone could match Ponting who averaged an eye popping 79 in 2007, in 5 less matches than Hayden.
The first class scene was dominated by Australians, two of which (arguably) should be in the Australian side. Some bloke named Badrinath did okay too.
The List A list looks much like the ODI one, with Hayden-Ponting-Tendulkar at the top.
Brad Hodge ending up scoring the most T20 runs in 2007, Followed by Gambhir and Wright.
Two spinners were tied at the top of the bowling table; Kumble and Murali with 49 a piece.
There wasn't too much for us Kiwi's to gloat about in 2007 but we have found at least one thing with Daniel Vettori taking the most one day international wickets in 2007 with 43. Though it should be pointed out Glenn McGrath played only 20 matches for 39 wickets - phenomenal.
Vettori nearly did a double, as he was third on the T20 International list.
Danish Kaneria, Murali and Yasir Arafat dominated the first class scene.
Powell was the surprising leading wicket taker in List A matches, with 59.
While Morkel took the most in T20.

He said he laughed out loud at Warne’s 50 best players – I think many do the same when reading his articles.
