Pure Entertainment XI

[Jezroy]

Lack of Hardik in Jezroy's line up is disturbing, TSTL.

****! Man I really want Hardik. I’d probably pull out Willey and put Hardik in.

Love to see a massive Ramdin/Hardik partnership.

Mind you, you could also get a couple of leg spinners in there. Then your batting order could read

de Kock
Ramdin
Astle
Warne

Or insert the up and coming West Indies player

de Kock
Ramdin
Astle
Pooran

 

[jimmy101]

Keith Stackpole needs to be named as a super sub :-)

 

[andruid]

My eyes!!!

 

[cnerd123]

From players I've seen play, a squad of 22 very entertaining cricketers that I'd like to see play together

Afridi
Warne
Murali
Gayle
Sehwag
Mitch Johnson
Lara
Sachin
Akram
Balaji
Irfan Pathan
Ravi Jadeja
Shakib
Akhtar
ABDV
Dilshan
Jonty Rhodes
Collingwood
Symonds
Flintoff
Dhoni
Sanga

 

[trundler]

That Jadeja selection has to be the fakest 'I'm too deep into this to give up at this point' piece of bullshit on this site

 

[cnerd123]

I genuinely love watching Jaddu bat, field, bowl and act like a general **** on the field.

The sword dance is the greatest thing to happen to cricket since Sreesanth dancing in Andre Nel's face. Sreesanth and Nel worthy contenders for this thread too btw

 

[Daemon]

A few guys in there like Balaji and Rhodes who would only be fun for like 5 minutes per game but otherwise be extremely boring to watch for the rest. Otherwise a solid list.

From the players I've watched I think this would be box office stuff

Sehwag
Hayden
Ponting
Pietersen
AB
Gilchrist
Stokes
Flintoff
Warne
Steyn
Shoaib

I want Lara in there but I never saw him dominate.

 

[cnerd123]

Balaji's smile is timeless you shut your whore mouth you

I've picked a bunch of gun fielders there to make it interesting. Suppose I could find two gun fielders who are more exciting with bat/ball than Collingwood and Rhodes tho TBF. Yuvraj and Boult come to mind now.

Stokes and KP are solid picks too

 

[Gremlin]

Gayle
Jayasuriya
Viv Richards
KP
Gower
Flintoff
Gilchrist (on peak batting alone, for the gloves I'll go Knott)
Warne
Marshall
Akram
Holding

would be my pick, I can only really go from cricketers I've seen but that list contains names that empties the bars when they are on form

 

[vcs]

Bond and Steyn would be my dream opening bowling pair. Bond hooping them in and Steyn taking them away. :drools:

 

[Gob]

Guys I saw

Warner
Sehwag
Ponting
Pietersen
Lara
Flintoff
Gilchrist
Johnson
Warne
Akthar
Steyn

Didn't see

Greenidge
Richards B
Richards V
Pollock
Sobers
Botham
Ames
Marshall
Lillee
Holding
Chandrasekar

 

[Gob]

Get Donald in who'd do it as well as Bond but for longer

 

[Jezroy]

After much consideration, this is my ideal XI. In batting order. Warne gets a batting promotion.

Butt
Fakhar
Root

De Kock
Ramdin
Astle
Warne

Hardik
Cummins
Sidebottom
Steyn

 

[Athlai]

Pant
Steyn IMO

Why does Warne get in?

 

[trundler]

Is it because he rocks a Hollywood loaf according to Burgey?

 

[andruid]

Mine would be

Virender Sehwag
Dilshan (for the Dilscoop)
Shahid Afridi
Jesse Ryder
Gerry Snyman
Rizwan Cheema
Kamran Akmal (WK)
Paul Adams
Mitch Johnson
Lasith Malinga
Sreesanth

 

[smash84]

Adam Gilchrist
Akram

Steyn
Waqar

 

[vcs]

Surprised there aren't more mentions of Damien Martyn. Would watch him over the Afridis and Maxwells of the world every day of the week.
