Most Overrated Player?

Back this up with some facts please Chris (if you can!)

I don't see how someone averaging over 30 in First class Cricket, who has represented England A, and has at least one Double Century can be crap and no better than a Birmingham League player.
He is what wrong with English Cricket, **** Player
Also he would not get in the team if he was not captain

Possibly not this season, and he's been big enough to accept that and drop himself a couple of times, but your assessment of him is baseless, and when I asked you to back it up with anything, surprise, surprise you can't!

No one ever mentioned him being a test player and he never has been. But one overrated Wawrakshire player is Melvyn Betts

He was Tipped for the england Opening slot when Mike Atherton retired last year.

(Bell, Giles, Betts, Powell, Frost)

A Major disappointment for me - he had promise, but hasn't fulfilled it, had a bad trot with injuries though.

Bell - you what?!!
Giles - England's best spinner, has been hampered by Hussain's captaincy in recent Tests, but is beginning to look a very good bowler indeed.
Betts - already agreed on.
Powell - you still haven't posted anything to convince any sane person on this one.
Frost - the 3rd choice keeper, exactly how does that make him over-rated?

Bell has had a poor season, but he has a nasty injury.
Who's the best spinner in Warwqickshire then?
Frost, Smith, very similar names - I can see how you got confused.

If he really was the best spinner in Warwickshire, he'd be in the First Team, and probably the England squad, being as Giles is currently England's number spinner.

Now, I reckon I may be able to guess the surname of this "great" spinner.
