Lara..
Ambrose
Steve Waugh

So long as they've been retired from the playing side of the game for 5 years, they're elligible.

I guess I am not the only one to not pick Wasim.

You can nominate up to 25 for this stage

Thanks. Though I am aware.

 

[honestbharani]

lol.. my bad.. Ambrose and Waugh still qualify though?

 

[Blaze 18]

Yeah. Steve Waugh retired in 2004, Ambrose retired in 2000. Lara only just misses out.

 

[Flyonthewall]

In chronological order because it's a pain in the neck trying to rank these people based on their importance and contribution to the game to be honest. Could be argued close to impossible, in fact...

1. John Wilkes
2. Alfred Mynn
3. John Wisden
4. Charles Bannerman
5. Bernard Bosanquet
6. P.G.H. Fender
7. Arthur Mailey
8. Clarrie Grimmett
9. Learie Constantine
10. Bill O'Reilly
11. Harold Larwood
12. Douglas Jardine
13. George Headley
14. Neville Cardus
15. Jack Iverson
16. Richie Benaud
17. Frank Worrell
18. John Arlott
19. Safraz Nawaz
20. Ian Chappell
21. John Traicos
22. Dickie Bird
23. David Shepherd
24. Mark Greatbatch
25. Allan Donald

Tried to avoid the obvious picks where possible, some might see some strange absences but personally I think subjectivity makes for a more interesting list!

The more the merrier

 

[Jarquis]

Not really willing to call this with so few nominations..

 

[ankitj]

Wrong time to do this IMO. World cup is on and I am not frequenting CC as much as the world cup sub forum. Think same would be the case for others.
