Moman211 Posted September 12, 2011 Posted September 12, 2011 Trott, who scored more than 1,000 runs in both Test and one-day internationals at averages of 65 and 48 respectively, beat team-mate Alastair Cook and Sachin Tendulkar and Hashim Amla to the award. However Cook had the consolation of being named Test player of the year. "I never envisaged winning this award and it's a brilliant feeling to be recognised," Trott said. :hatsoff: clearly was the best player this past year in test and Odis
Moman211 Posted September 12, 2011 Author Posted September 12, 2011 What a joke. why?:WTF: wasnt he the most consistent player this year in ODIs and Tests. i mean just look at what he averaged.
Moman211 Posted September 12, 2011 Author Posted September 12, 2011 Should have been Cook. He got Test player of the year which he deserved but Trott deserved this more because of his overall performances in ODI and Test.
Cricket Tragic Posted September 12, 2011 Posted September 12, 2011 why?:WTF: wasnt he the most consistent player this year in ODIs and Tests. i mean just look at what he averaged. Here are the numbers... Amla Tests - 65 ODIs - 61 and s/r of 99 Tendulkar Tests - 65 ODIs - 47 and s/r of 89 Trott Tests - 65 ODIs - 48 and s/r of 79 All their test averages are pretty similar but Trott has the worst (relative) ODI record. His strike rate is a joke in comparison with Amla.
Moman211 Posted September 12, 2011 Author Posted September 12, 2011 Cook and Trott - they deliver the goods though!
TheYuvi02 Posted September 12, 2011 Posted September 12, 2011 Amla should have won, been phenomenal in both odi and t20.. but I guess trott wasnt a bad choice either.. all candidates were worthy choices but congrats to trott
TheYuvi02 Posted September 12, 2011 Posted September 12, 2011 Should have been Cook. Not really.. he rightfully won test player of the year award but he hasn't been a regular member in odi team. Cricketer of the year is usually given to players who excel in both formats, there is seperate category for players who excelled in only test/odi.
ganeshran Posted September 12, 2011 Posted September 12, 2011 they deliver the goods though! They are great technically - no two ways about it. Score good runs at a decent rate and excellent average. Maybe its my bias as a supporter for another team, but I find their batting boring

His strike rate is a joke in comparison with Amla. Amla should have won, I agree. Since January 2010 amla averaged 72 in tests with 5 hundreds and 64 in odi with seven hundreds and strike rate of 99.

Maybe its my bias as a supporter for another team, but I find their batting boring well thats true for most people when their watching the opposition batsmen unless their really great players of course.
Serani Posted September 12, 2011 Posted September 12, 2011 Fairly sure Amla should have won the award last year aswell but none of you complained because Sachin won the award.
The Realist Posted September 12, 2011 Posted September 12, 2011 Should have been Cook. Erm don't wish to piss on ur parade but Cook wasn't even picked for the biggest cricket tournament of the year :facepalm:
Serani Posted September 12, 2011 Posted September 12, 2011 Cooks performance in tests has been so good that ODI's shouldnt even matter.
Cricket Tragic Posted September 12, 2011 Posted September 12, 2011 Fairly sure Amla should have won the award last year aswell but none of you complained because Sachin won the award. Last year stats.... Tendulkar Tests - 82 ODIs - 65 and s/r of 99 Amla Tests - 66 ODIs - 60 and s/r of 91
Serani Posted September 12, 2011 Posted September 12, 2011 Maybe not then. Still think Trott deserves it, likewise if Sachin or Amla won in they would be fully deserving too.
Cricket Tragic Posted September 12, 2011 Posted September 12, 2011 Sangakarra winning the ODI player of the year was another joke. It should have been Gambhir since he averaged the same as Amla (60) but did very well at the WC. Even Amla would have been acceptable.

Amla should have won odi without any doubts, sanga winning is a total joke. Gambo would have been a better pick than sanga
