Incredibly friendly guy, so he probably won't take offense to your misspelling of his name. Probably slides into South Africa's ATG 8th XI.
A bit hard to pick a player in an AT side on the back of a career of 36 ODIs surely.
6 games at the WC though, according to Burgey that's more than enough
why does Amla have to open? Could you not put him at 3 over Faf?
Exactly my point.
Kind of feel like if Kallis isn't batting top 3 then he doesn't really have a place in an ATG ODI side of any description.
The beauty of this is, so would Kallis.
Overdoing it, he is not the greatest batsman to up the run rate but if that's your idea, just play a good bowler who can tonk a couple.
There are many bowlers who are considered good to great even though they played just a handful of games because of various reasons. For example, Jack Cowie and Frank Tyson. No reason why big man Fanie shouldn't be rated similarly. He debuted when he was almost 30 due to SA's isolation and then retired at 34. In 18 games he got a healthy average and wpm and managed 2 tenfers. That's very impressive.
Yes, one of the best ERs in 1990s. More economical than Donald.
Its a tight one for me... even the question of Steyn. But ultimately Ntini was always a difficult customer to hit in ODI's because of the awkward delivery angle. Morkel is similar, but still think Ntini, Steyn does not get in because of similarity to Donald.
