[G.I.Joe]

Is nightprowler10 allowed to vote for himself?

 

[weldone]

Kapil Dev (for '83 WC), Chris Gayle (for when he plays with a runner, injured)
Muttiah Muralitharan (for taking more wickets than Hair can count ), Alan Davidson (for being the gentleman he is)

I abstain from the first one as I'm not allowed to vote for Marshall only.

Marshall, Richie

Gayle, Brian Close - For facing Holding like a champ =D

[Outswinger@Pace]

Battle 31:

Tip Foster for being one of the most sublime batsmen of his generation and Richie Richardson for being one of the most brutal of his.

Battle 32:

Brian Close for being a true frontline warrior on the field and in the dressing room and Kapil Dev for emerging as a terrific natural athlete and a fast-medium bowler from a background of mediocrity

Battle 33:

Davidson - an unsung true swing bowling great and Mark Waugh, because Murali would end up with enough votes anyway.





P.S.: Junior was a very watchable bat too.

 

[fredfertang]

Tip Foster for being English and Maco for being the best

Kapil Dev for being a great entertainer and The Old Bald Bastard for being the bravest Englishman who ever lived

Murali for being a Lancastrian and Davo for being a thoroughly decent bloke, despite being Australian

 

[Howe_zat]

Richardson for being one of the most underrated players of the modern era, including by himself.

Marshall for making sure no-one made that mistake about him.

Kapil Dev for carrying his side's bowling for years, and winning them a world cup through sheer force of personality.

Close for being basically my granddad, only good at cricket.

Mark Waugh for those shots.

Murali for doing more of his country's bowling than the rest put together, and doing it with that wide-eyed smile.

Battle 31 - Marshall, Richardson
Battle 32 - Martyn, Gayle
Battle 33 - Waugh, Davidson

 

[uvelocity]

Marshall & Richardson
Martyn & Gayle
Junior & Murali

Found them all super easy to decide on.

 

[Hurricane]

Marshal because of the pic
Richardson likewise

Asbstain in the other two.

 

[NUFAN]

Marshall and Richardson.
Dev and Gayle - **** that's an awkward looking shot of Close. I never liked Martyn much..
Mark Waugh by a huge margin over Murali - Junior is easily my favourite Cricketer of all time.
