U19 Cricketer
Wow...Ashwin in before even Qadir, Ajmal...ranked above Bedi and Benaud. What a curious list, so let me post mine and I guess I will have to vote for some normality as no. 23:

Abdul Qadir
 
Line and Length

Cricketer Of The Year
This is another voting thread that appears to have stalled. Can we at least continue until we have 25 and/or Johnny Wardle gets acknowledged?
 
Line and Length

Line and Length

Cricketer Of The Year
As with the ATG All-Rounder voting, @gftw hasn't posted any updates in over 10 days so I am taking the liberty of continuing the voting on his behalf.

The voting for the 23rd position is:
Wardle 3
Blythe 3
Prasanna 1
Qadir 1
MacGill 1
As I have been pushing for Wardle for some time, it might be unfair to break the tie by selecting him. I therefore declare the 23rd spinner on the list to be Colin Blythe

The List
1. Muttiah Muralitharan
2. Shane Warne
3. Bill O'Reilly
4. Jim Laker
5. Clarrie Grimmett
6. Hedley Verity
7. Hugh Tayfield
8. Anil Kumble
9. Derek Underwood
10. Lance Gibbs
11. Ravichandran Ashwin
12. Richie Benaud
13. Rangana Herath
14. Bhagwath Chandrasekhar
15. Bishen Bedi
16. Nathan Lyon
17. Saqlain Mushtaq
18. Graeme Swann
19. Ravindra Jadeja
20. Subhash Gupte
21. Hugh Trumble
22. Wilfred Rhodes
23. Colin Blythe

Voting is now open for Wardle, I mean 24th place, on the list. Perhaps we should finish at 25.
