Battle of the Cricketers

a massive zebra

International Captain
Warne is obviously a far better player, but to liven things up I would like to give a sympathy vote to Cronje. A fine captain and not the worst batsmen in the world either.

Warne. Potentially top four material I think to be knocked out by either Bradman or Sobers, assuming he doesn't run into them beforehand.

International Regular
I vote for Warne, but it was always enjoyable watching Cronje crack Warne for boundaries.

Warne is in Bradman's Quarter.

Can't you bung in someone else? Can't see Underwood or Laker on your spreadsheet.

Or Sir Douglas Jardine.... :whistling

Fiery for me. Wonderfully balanced bowler, a chip on both shoulders! ;)

Trueman.

BTW, that isn't a v flattering picture of our Fred. Must have been at the tail end of his career.
