CricketWeb decides the Greatest Players Post World War I

[SillyCowCorner1]

I nominated Chris Lewis and Gareth Batty earlier.

Only MoYo was missing, but I've updated the votes based on the above list ^

 

[MagicPoopShovel]

Chris Lewis and Batty were also added. I trust upper management will know know what to do with those noms.

Simmons would make a top 50 NBA list though.

True. I rate Simmons highly, but he has absolutely no relevance whatsoever to a cricket list

I played cricket with him at school, I back him.

Mohommad Hanif should be Hanif Mohammad.
Haydos' first name is spelled wrong.
Ntini's first name is Makhaya
Pujara's first name Cheteshwar
Vengsakar spells it Vengsarkar

Pretty good for a first draft

Cheers. Sorted those out.

Thanks a lot, MagicPoopShovel. The good people of CW have once again come through. Sorry for slacking a bit but I've had to because of my sister's wedding. I'll get back ASAP. Think the final list ought to be 25.

What are you doing posting here during your sister's wedding anyway?

 

[jimmy101]

Being polite I imagine :-)

I'm not sure how you were planning on doing the voting, but it would be interesting and I'm assuming easier to just follow the wisden template. Everyone nominates a few, count the number of times ppl have been nominated

Congrats to your sister on her special day

Avoiding the sea of old people out there, basically.

Yeah, follow the Wisden template. Nominate your top 25s please.

I've seen a few nominations for Kohli - is he really in the running for this (i.e. top 50 or whatever?)

I think there's no doubt that he'll end up joining Sachin and Gavaskar as India's best batsman ever, but maybe still too early to call it?

Definitely not. He's there already. and should stay even if his form drops imo.

Trundler, note I edited my list.
