ALLROUNDERS

[mal]

Keith Miller

2958 runs in 55 Tests (7 hundreds) - average 36.97
170 Test wickets at 22.97

I'd suggest he's a true all rounder.

TRUE
But
He did bat 3-4-5-6 most of his career
Would not score 7 tons batting at 7

KALLIS stacks up well....

In the West Indies reign as world champions, who was their allrounder? Nobody.

You don't rate Collis King?

You're right ... I don't rate Collis King.

Australia has an all rounder, Gilly.
He would (over the last 5-7 years ) get a game on his batting alone and then he is able to perform another role.

Selection should be pick the best 6 batsman we have, pick the best 4 bowlers we have and then a keeper who can bat.

Out of the 6 batsman you will find one or two who can roll thier arm over eg, Clarke, Symonds, Hodge, Hussy, Pointing, White and hope that between them they can keep it to about 6 an over. Push the field back and pitch it up and let them take a single of each ball.

The 4 main bowlers then need to take wickets or keep things very tight, one leads to the other but dont try to do both at once. Wickets arent the main thing in a one day game its runs, they should be looking at 40 runs or less from thier 10 overs.

Get away from the short crap, and the full toss on leg stump.

If you look at the way the poms got out and most of time it was shit shots, however when you look at the way we got out, Hayden unlucky but a poor shot as the ball was to wide, Pointing ball dragged him into the shot and moved away, Clarke see pointing, Gilly inswinging yorker. Rest are hard to comment on as we needed quick runs.

How many of our bowlers put them under pressure?

dont think do: can you please explain to me how hayden was unlucky?

dont think do: can you please explain to me how hayden was unlucky?

I meant he was unlucky in that he hit it well and fairly low and to get caught from a shot in that area is unlucky, however I did put that it was a poor shot (compared to the others) as it was a wide ball and he was not able to get his body across to it.
