Jonathan Trott beats Alastair Cook, Tendulkar and Amla to cricket award

[Sachin=GOD]

Sanga for ODIs and Trott for player of the year are both wrong choices.

Congrats to the South African.... his nation will be proud.

[Geoff Boycott]

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.

If "averages" were all the ICC went on, you might have a point....

[Sachinism]

Amla deserved it. Don't know what Cook got an award for, was going to be dropped before the Ashes and then piled on runs vs some pi$$ poor bowling attacks

If "averages" were all the ICC went on' date=' you might have a point....[/quote'] So please enlighten us on the parameters used and how Trott met the criteria better than the others

[Serani]

Aus are a piss poor bowling attack yet are skittling SL's superstar FTB's in there own backyard :giggle: Although I will agree India are a piss poor attack.

You'd better ask the judges at the ICC, but even a dumb **** would know that averages don't take into account the opposition, playing conditions, and the result of the match.

Clive Lloyd & the selection panel know nothing about cricket? But a couple of posters on here know more? :hysterical:

He was man of the series in the ashes which was bigger than anything else this year
