The CW 50 - CricketWeb's view of the top 50 cricketers of all time

[The Sean]

If I was a betting man, I'd stake a fair amount on none of my choices being nominated by me alone...

Actually there are still two of your list that no one else has nominated before or since.

Wow. Genuinely surprised. Can you tell me what numbers they are?

20 and 25.

 

[Jungle Jumbo]

Hmm, 25 was the one I thought of immediately as soon as I saw your post. 20 a little less so, but perhaps on consideration. Probably been a bit too generous to him/her in hindsight...

 

[The Sean]

Not at all. If you think that Chris Tavare is worth that spot then you be proud of picking him.

 

[Jungle Jumbo]

Indeed. Thought Moniruzzaman might have been selected by a few others as well.

 

[The Sean]

And we've cracked three figures - 102 different cricketers now nominated for at least one vote.

 

[Jarquis]

My list is a work in progress still

Are you suggesting some of my nominations were a little 'niche'?

No moreso than many others...

 

[The Sean]

Strauss, Gibbs and Vaughan somewhat puzzling, I have to say...

The Gibbs is Lance not Herschelle, TBF.

 

[bagapath]

The Sean! has SJS sent his list?

and how many guys are you expecting to contribute?

Considering around 60 people vote for seriously popular polls I would say you can expect 40+ forum members to make this list and mail you. What is your target?

 

[andyc]

Sent. I kinda CBF giving heaps of thought to the order, but I'm happy enough with the list.

Edit: Looks like I had two players not on the list posted earlier.

 

[NUFAN]

Nice list, although there are better players out there who haven't been included over some. IMO of course.

Which Richardson is it? Richie or Victor?

I don't think I'll be the only nomination on any of my picks now..

 

[HeathDavisSpeed]

Which Richardson is it? Richie or Victor?

Mark...

 

[NUFAN]

Mark...

Haha, I was just coming back into this thread to write or Mark.

 

[zaremba]

At the end of it all I'm happy to share the spreadsheet which shows exactly who voted for who, provided everyone is ok with that information being shared.

Yes that would be great

 

[Magrat Garlick]

The Gibbs is Lance not Herschelle, TBF.

Ah. Makes more sense.

Haha, I was just coming back into this thread to write or Mark.

...or Tom

 

[The Sean]

It is Tom actually.

Nothing from SJS yet, but I am hoping he contributes. I don't really have a target - we've had upwards of 30 people send in their lists so far and I know there are several more who are still formulating their lists so I'm thinking we'll get to between 35-40. Any more than that would obviously be fantastic.
