Regarding your test bowlers, Ishant Sharma at 5?

He hasn't even got a 5 wicket haul yet

Also you can't put Mendis in there after only one series...

The ICC Rankings are accumulated over a long period of time - your rankings are just well... your "own"

^ It's just my opinion on the current form of the players. It's not statistical, like the official rankings.

Monty 7?

 

[khalek]

Come on guys give your own first rather than just stop commenting on his rankings!

Australian 2nd in ODI - World Cup much?

Sharma has actually.

Based on what I think right now:

In Tests:
Bell shouldn't be 8.
Gambhir shouldn't be 10.
Monty shouldn't be at 7, certainly.
Sharma should no way be at 5.
Mendis can't be at 2 because he hasn't played enough series to get that high.

In ODIs:
Mendis for the same reason.
The last 4 bowlers shouldn't be there.

I appreciata for your guys' views on my rankings, but feel free to give your own rankings based on your opinions - this is what the thread's for.

As for the above post:

1) Bell has a great technique and is starting to find his form again

2) Gambhir is developing into a very consistent batsman and is definitely a great batsman.

3) Monty is actually a very good offspinner and gets a lot of turn and is accurate

4) Sharma has proved himself on both Australian and Asian wickets, extracting considerable bounce, pace, and accuracy

5) Mendis was completely unstopable against India - I don't see many teams in the future picking him

6) Same as above

7) Stuart Broad has proven to be a consistent ODI bowler. I've given my case on Sharma, and Sreesanth can get great pace and swing, and when he is in for he is a great ODI bowler. And Shahid Afridi is developing into a very good bowler, with great ODI bowling perfomances throughout the year, geting good turn and smart bowling

I still wouldn't stick Bell there at the moment, if he can have a good tour of India and where else England are going, then I can understand himmaking his way up the rankings easily, but not at the moment. Monty doesn't get a lot of turn and his bowling consists of stock ball after stock ball so he shouldn't be there yet.

3) Monty is actually a very good offspinner and gets a lot of turn and is accurate

that May be correct accurate but what is every ball 54-58 mph not good enough we need a spinner who isn't afraid to give vartity to his pace e.g. Warne,Murali etc.

 

[shravi]

Actually, he got one against Pakistan.

pwnz0rd :rtfl.

I don't think Murali should be at the top of the ODI bowler rankings.
