    How many more World Cups will there be?

    Many more....90,000 fans in the final of the ODI WC 2023....explains that.... Even the matches in the ODI WC 2019 were all mostly packed stadiums... And yeah in South Africa in ODI WC 2027, you would see lots of people from all countries...so that's gonna be another packed affair... How about...

    Where do you rank Shivnarine Chanderpaul in all-time best batsmen?

    I always felt he had an incredible record in Tests, ODIs and domestic circuit...often not discussed....also most of his feats came when West Indies cricket was decaying from it's golden era...so where do you rank him in all-time best batsmen list...this has to take in both his ODI and Test...

    Create an all time best Test XI using only one player from each country...

    Ok. But I am new to these forums, so I thought this was never done before..and I like creating and participating in lists/polls/tournaments on forums...I have been doing this on wrestling forums a lot before....

    WC is over though, but Pakistan didn't pick the perfect squad...

    It was kind of risky to go ahead in the ODI WC with a very young squad...including some very unexperienced players... I know fitness plays an issue, but it's always good to have a balanced squad in a global tournament... Imad Wasim, Shan Masood, Sarfaraz Ahmad and Mohammad Amir should have...

    If you look at Pakistani squad in ODI WC in 2023, you could feature same squad in ODI WC 2027...

    All 15 or even 18 (if you include the reserve players)..all young..who can play for a long long time... Just saying it won't happen though, coz they didn't perform well anyways... But an interesting observation anyways...

    Create an all time best ODI XI featuring only one player from each country...

    It is still debatable...coz not enough wickets for him in ODIs...far more better bowlers..but he is an ok pick to balance your bowling lineup...

    Create an all time best ODI XI featuring only one player from each country...

    I started watching cricket during ODI World Cup 1996, so missed everything before then...but maybe just maybe someday I will start watching cricket before 1996...

    Create an all time best ODI XI featuring only one player from each country...

    Everyone has their own style of creating what sides they want with limited options...your fast bowling lineup looks perfect....Meanwhile I had gone for stability in the middle order with Kohli, Ponting and Sangakarra..so I had to settle for Wasim Akram, James Anderson and Trent Boult as my fast...

    Create an all time best ODI XI featuring only one player from each country...

    Ok, fair enough. I was not watching cricket back then. Actually I have never even seen Vivian Richards bat.

    Create an all time best ODI XI featuring only one player from each country...

    Ok list. But you are relying on Shakib Al Hasan to be your 5th bowler...who has to bowl 10 overs everytime? Coz there isn't any part-time bowling option on your list?

    Create an all time best ODI XI featuring only one player from each country...

    Ok, fair enough. But a XI straight up would be a better idea? That was the trick to make this thread more interesting... Also you have a second and third spinner choice in Shakib and Ten Doeschate anyways...

    Create an all time best ODI XI featuring only one player from each country...

    You will have to pick one from Streak and Rashid Khan..you decide you want a fast bowling heavy side or spin heavy side.....so what is your right balance here?

    Create an all time best ODI XI featuring only one player from each country...

    In that scenario, player's overall skills can come into consideration.. Like sometimes we have really talented players...but they fail to perform on international level...and vanish after a couple of years.... Or sometimes player's are really good on domestic level or club/league level....so...

    Virat Kohli vs Sachin Tendulkar

    If we are only discussing ODI's only...I would say Virat Kohli... If you bring both Tests and ODI's into discussion..then it's Sachin Tendulkar... But Virat Kohli is also the best T20i batsman of all time... But if you ask me best overall batsman of all time between Virat Kohli and Sachin...

    Travis Head is a GOAT

    And a really brilliant catch to get Rohit Sharma out.....off Maxwell's bowling... I think that also made a lot of difference...the way Rohit Sharma was batting then...
