The most luckiest player at the wc

[andmark]

I got the idea from corsa.But who was the luckiest player in the world cup?

 

[PhoenixFire]

Hmm, I'd say Steve Waugh for being dropped by Gibbs in that infamous match.

 

[nightprowler10]

I'm thinking he means in this WC. Danish Kaneria.

 

[Neil Pickup]

Mohammad Sami.

 

[haroon510]

sami, hafeez and danish kaneria

 

[Fiery]

Daryl Tuffey

 

[Pup Clarke]

Virender Sehwag

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Lendl Simmons.

 

[Richard]

at the way near enough everyone has said someone from their own team!

There are a few candidates who would probably best be said to be equally fortunate to be there.

Though Tendulkar in that game against Pakistan wasn't a million miles short, TBH.

 

[jack_sparrow]

Mohammad Sami.

beat me to it. no shabbir, no asif, no akhtar, no razzaq, plus not too formy rana and gul = sami heaven.

 

[FRAZ]

Anderson Cummins !
What are the chances that you have played for one country and then you migrate to another country and you come back to play the world cup in your own country with another team.
Happened only once before I guess ,When South African team played the WC 92 .

Didn't Hick do it?

Can't remember if he actually played in 1983 or not (mainly because I was 5 at the time)

 

[age_master]

One could argue Andrew Symonds is pretty lucky to be there.

 

[andmark]

I would say Steve Waugh with the Gibbs drop catch

Still he only made 100+lol

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Bosman.

 

[Fiery]

Bosman.

Yeah but we all know why he's in there so why bring it up? It's fair enough for SA to let a certain amount of black players into the team after over 200 years of bigotry

He didn't.

The reason as to why he's lucky is irrelevant. Whether it's justified luck or not, it doesn't matter.

He did not play in a single match and the captain was Duncan Fletcher. Hope you get the reason
