Mubarak - Williams actually has a pretty good w/k record of close to four dismissals a match

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Yeah, Mubarak. Williams surely is rivalled by a lot of wickies in the 50s and 60s, Mubarak is special.

Mubarak

Mubarak

 

[Goughy]

Williams. Mubarak is still young and can possibly turn things around. Having someone 25 yrs old in this battle seems premature.

Williams was poor with the bat and nothing special with the gloves (not bad but not great)

Williams.

 

[Nate]

I`ll go Williams.

 

[Poker Boy]

Has to be Mubarak. At least Williams has a Test 50 (and made under pressure - he shared a partnership with Hooper that won the Windies a Test against England they were losing before he came in (first Trinidad Test 1998))

 

[nightprowler10]

Mubarak has only played 8 tests, so its a bit hard on him tbh. Williams for me.

 

[TT Boy]

Mubarak takes it.

Round One, Battle Three

First class Gods, yet these two guys never really did excel in the test arena. Though Ramprakash excelled against the Australians, the prodigal son Hasan Raza has repeatedly scored heavy against touring sides yet when he comes to test cricket, other than two fifties against the Australians has seemingly failed to impressed.

Hasan Raza
7 Tests @ 26.11- Highest score 68 aganist the Australians at Sharjah.
16 ODI @ 18.16- Highest score 77, SR 50.41

Mark Ramprakash You have to remember, Raza was supposedly only 15 around the time he debuted for Pakistan. That's ridiculous giving that sort of exposure to a kid.

 

[superkingdave]

Ramprakash - though he's probably a better dancer

Ramprakash

 

[shortpitched713]

Ramps.

 

[chaminda_00]

Raza never really been given a chance TBF

Ramprakash going to push Jehan all the way, due to endless chances he got given.
