Best ODI XI - POLL - Allrounders & Bowlers
-
In hindsight my vote for McMillan was misplaced, I was weighting my choices more on the all rounder aspect after taking Bond as my strike bowler.
Bond, Vettori, Astle, Harris and McMillan...
But meh, I still watch more cricket than @MN5 does rugby, but post less on cricket than he does on rugby...

That stuffed me up too. There needed to be an all rounders poll and a bowlers poll. Head organiser deciding beforehand how many of each in the team

Too hard, could you imagine the fisticuffs on here about someone being a bowler or an allrounder? Or if we made people pick 6 batsmen, one allrounder and 4 out and out bowlers, when they wanted 5 batsmen 3 allrounders and 3 bowlers?
It'd be worse than dealing with my kids fighting in the back seat of the car during a road trip.
I decided it was easier (for myself) and safer for all involved to do it how I did it. -

Fair point, although we wouldn't have them in a 7s poll either
My point about viewing volumes of each sport still valid.
@Gunner dick 🤣

Good analogy I’ll give you that but I’m still triggered by your implications, I watched every AB test live last year !!!!

seriously how the fuck is Hadlee not unanimous in this?
When was last time that we all agreed on anything?
IIRC there were dissenting voices about R McCaw being God. Just crazy people on here.

I'm polytheist, McCaw is one of the Gods (but MJ was a better rugby player).
, but seriously how the fuck is Hadlee not unanimous in this?
