Battle of Cricketers - CW's Favorite Cricketer

Somerset

Cricketer Of The Year
I'm not a massive Shakib fan, and never really favoured Blewett either. Controversy aside, I'm therefore prepared to give my vote to Hansie Cronje.
 

Magrat Garlick

Rather Mad Witch
Shakib 17
Blewett 7 - 1, no wildcard
Cronje 4 - 3

Geoff Boycott (1940-)
8,114 runs in 108 Tests for England; 36 ODIs
Vocal, gritty Yorkshire opener
Statistically one of the most successful openers of the twentieth century
22 Test hundreds, joint most for England

Phil Hughes (1988- )
615 runs in 7 Tests for Australia; 40 first-class matches
Unorthodox opening batsman who has been in and out of the Test XI
Player of the Year in Sheffield Shield 2008-09
Widely tipped for a bright future

Malcolm Marshall (1958-1999)
1,810 runs and 376 wickets in 81 Tests for West Indies; 136 ODIs
Consistenly excellent bowler, the most regularly successful of the West Indies 1980s bowlers
Allied high speed with movement and accuracy - a deadly triad
Batted and bowled with a broken thumb to lead West Indies to victory at Lord's in 1984

Marshall.

Tragic loss to the world and the cricketing part of it in particular. Great player in the truest sense and, by every account, a crashingly good bloke.
