Cheers, I knew you were good for something.

 

[NUFAN]

Can I just ask are we basing this on Test or their performances for Australia or overall first class plus tests?

Its based on Test and ODI stats usually. I suppose you can take FC stats into account if you want, after all you can vote whomever you want.

Yeah cool, just wanted to be consistent, I reckon someone like Michael Clarke could almost get a run ahead of Paul Reiffel already, but all good.

I'm adding Clarke to where McKenzie was added twice

Here we go then:

Round 1: Battle 1

Jack Ryder

Tests: 20 matches, 1394 runs, ave: 51.62, 3 100s, 9 50s.

VS

Ricky Ponting

Tests: 118 matches, 10042 runs, ave: 58.72, 35 100s, 40 50s.
ODIs: 298 matches, 11026 runs, ave: 43.40, 26 100s, 63 50s.

VS

Ian Redpath

Tests: 66 matches, 4737 runs, ave: 43.45, 8 100s, 31 50s.

 

[pasag]

Ryder unlucky, Redpath underrated but it has to be Ponting.

Might change the title for a day to get attention.

 

[NUFAN]

Agree exactly with Pasag, Ricky Ponting has to win this one.

 

[sanga1337]

Ponting, can't see how you can say otherwise

 

[Matt79]

Ponting. Fantastic photo of Redpath however.

[aussie tragic]

[FaaipDeOiad]

Haha, gun Redpath photo.

Ponting easily.

 

[James90]

Nominate Gough Whitlam.

 

[The_Bunny]

Has to be Punter

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Nominate Gough Whitlam.

Will meet Keating in the semis in a grudge match.

 

[Jamee999]

Looks like Dracula.

Ponting.

I'm tempted to vote for him now, itbt.

Ponting though.

 

[nightprowler10]

I think I'll bring the mercy rule in play here. Punter by a landslide. Including stats that make the players stand out here on in like Cowper's HS and Davidson's ER.

I should've clarified in the title, its the battle of the Australian cricketers.
