Round 4 : All Rounders

Initial Draw


@Disharies : :zim: :ar: Sean Williams (Medium)
Arguably one of the more underrated ODI players in the modern era, Sean Williams has been carrying Zimbabwe for a long time now.

@mohsin7827 : :wi: :ar: Romario Shepherd (Bad)
Still early on in his career but so far at ODI level Shepherd does not have too many notable performances. With a sub par List A record, its hard to see him get a much longer rope too

@Till Valhalla : :aus: :ar: James Hopes (Medium)
A useful utility cricketer, Hopes played 85 ODIs for Australia which is a pretty significant amount. Sadly the role he played is starting to go out of fashion lately

@pillowprocter : :saf: :ar: Shaun Pollock (Good)
In the running for the best ODI All Rounders of all time, Pollock was an incredible bowler who also could bat at 7. Makes every team better, just don't make him your captain in a knockout

@ddrap14 : :ban: :ar: Suhrawadi Shuvo (Bad)
Another left ar spinner from Bangladesh lost into obscurity, Shuvo had a good U19 and domestic career but never made the leap to international cricket. Somehow still active though

@Neo 7 : :aus: :ar: Shane Watson (Good)
Watson did not have the best start to his international career which makes his subsequent improvement even more impressive. Averages of 40 with the bat and 30 with the ball are absolutely elite

@ahmedleo414 : :saf: :ar: Jacques Kallis (Good)
11k ODI runs and 273 wickets is impressive for 2 different players combined, insane how he managed to maintain those averages over an 18 year career.

@CerealKiller : :ban: :ar: Shakib al Hasan (Good) {Protected :x:]
Probably the most important player for any country in the modern era, Shakib has spent large parts of his career being his country's best batsman and best bowler

@RUDI : :wi: :ar: Andre Russell (Medium)
Despite having a mostly forgotten about ODI career, Russell was a gun in the matches he played. Was a strike bowler in the early parts of his career but later transitioned to the hitter he is today

@Verified Enigma : :uae: :ar: Ajmad Javed (Bad)
Might be the most versatile "Bad" tier player, Javed can bat anywhere in the batting order and bowls handy medium pace. Does not have a very flattering record against even weak teams though, placing him in the Bad category.

Round 5

Initial Draw


@Disharies : :nz: :bat: Kane Williamson (Good)
Probably the best ODI batsman for NZ ever, Williamson will genuinely end up as one of the best of all time especially after his POTT performance in the 2019 WC

@mohsin7827 : :nz: :bat: Mark Burgess (Bad)
On the other spectrum of NZ batsmen, Burgess played 26 ODIs as a specialist batsmen and never got to 50. Not ideal

@Till Valhalla : :png: :bat: Lega Siaka (Bad)
Siaka has played 47 ODIs and averages under 20 which is definitely not what you want. Been around for a while though and still is a fringe player for PNG

@pillowprocter : :pak: :bat: Saeed Anwar (Good)
Anwar really does not get enough recognition for his ODI record, 8800 runs at over 80 SR for that era is fantastic. 20 100s also shows how much of a match winner he was

@ddrap14 : :eng: :bat: Nasser Hussain (Medium)
Quite often in and out of the team, Hussain played only 80 ODIs over a 15 year career. Still, a pretty good option in the Medium tier and is also a contender for the captaincy

@Neo 7 : :wi: :bat: Wavell Hinds (Medium)
As medium of a player as you can get, Hinds had a respectable but unspectacular career. Wasn't bad at all but probably would not get as many games in a stronger team

@ahmedleo414 : :sri: :bat: Bhanuka Rajapaksa (Bad)
Despite having a lot of potential, Rajapaksa has never done anything of note at the ODI level. He did have a decent run at T20 level recently, so might have a chance to improve his ODI record in the future

@CerealKiller : :ind: :bat: Karun Nair (Bad)
One of the 2nd string players India sent to play Zimbabwe in 2016, Nair had an underwhelming tour and with his recent form it does not look like he will add to his 2 ODI caps in the fututre

@RUDI : :eng: :bat: Joe Root (Good) [Protected :x:]
Easily amongst the best ever ODI batsmen for England, Root has had a really successful career so far and does not seem to be slowing down. Pretty easy decision to protect him

@Verified Enigma : :nz: :bat: Lou Vincent (Medium)
Vincent had a moderately successful career, never turned into a star batsman but did well enough to play 102 ODIs. Did completely tarnish his reputation after retirement after being caught match fixing
