Who is the mentally weakest, or just softest in general, international cricketer. One that gives up easily. Always injured. Whinges the most.

Jimmy Anderson? Philander? Johnny Bairstow? Shane Watson?

Warner away from home belongs in this discussion.

The obvious entries are blokes like Swann. He was the fairest of fair weather cricketers. In fact, I'd probably have him top of the pile, quitting mid-series not 6 months after chirping up a storm against the same opponents. Genuinely seems a ****ing woeful human.

Andy Caddick always struck me as someone who was really soft in the head. Bloke had so much going for him - decent enough pace, height and shaped it pretty consistently. He just went to water at the first whiff of grape shot.

Allan Donald always looked to me like he was going to cry when things got tough, but looking back I think that was simply a perception over reality. Whereas with Caddick and especially Swann, the empirical evidence is overwhelming.
