[JimmyGS]

Nathan Hauritz

 

[honestbharani]

AA

 

[Jakester1288]

Nathan Hauritz

The biggest there, he is so unfairly criticized it's not funny.

 

[_Ed_]

Saj Mahmood, tbf. He's hardly a good player, but you'd think he was the worst ever to play for England reading some of the posts here.

 

[jondavluc]

Ricky Ponting
Mitchell Johnson
Michael Clarke
Paul Collingwood
Andrew Symonds

 

[Zinzan]

Does Collingwood really get that much flack on this forum?

Can't say I've really noticed it

 

[GIMH]

Anyone good since the 90s

Yeah, I've mentioned this in the England Domestic thread a few times. Might not be accurate enough at international level but is one of the best around in the domestic game.

 

[S.P. Fleming]

Iain O Brien
Jacob Oram (recently)
Matthew Sinclair

 

[morgieb]

Andrew Symonds
Matthew Hayden

 

[LongHopCassidy]

People who just happened to be good after September 16, 2001 at 3:41pm.

 

[straw man]

Surely Stuart Broad rates a mention.

People who are easy to criticise for their appearance get plenty of flak on this forum (eg Broad, Michael Clarke, Shane Watson).

 

[Polo23]

Neil Broom.

 

[kingkallis]

Jacques "King" Henry Kallis!

 

[Pothas]

Ponting is unfairly treated but this is in no waya just a cricketweb thing, think he is one of those players that is just going to be slightly undervalued no matter what he does from now.

Sometimes feel that Mohammad Yousuf is somewhat unfairly treated, people are so keen to point out (quite rightly) that his stats are so inflated that they tend to forget that he is actually a very fine player.

Hauritz recently.
