Now i am thinking it will be someone retired...an old time legend.
From current gen there is only kallis and sachin but neither of them will attract people the way ross hinted in england and australia.
And gilchrist, hayden etc are ruled out too because even though popular they just don't seem to be like someone that will have the aforementioned effect on people.
ponting, lara etc are unlikely too because of ross mentioning a negative effect afl live had due to an older game having the same name. Hardly think he will make the same mistake.
And people like steve waugh, imran khan, wasim akram etc although better than gilly and hayden still just don't feel right.
That just makes me think it is someone from even earlier. Either gary sobers or bradman. Everyone young or old respects them and are aware of them.now if the cover player is really left handed, that rules out bradman.
So it will be gary sobers' cricket 14
