ICF all time World ODI XI : Middle order batsmen(Pick any 3)

[Sidhoni]

Putting up the poll..

[Number]

Should have included Dean Jones, A De Silva and Miandad.

[adi B]

yeah,add jones,moyo,symonds,lara

[BeautifulGame]

Need to include Symonds in that list. But the above options Ponting Richards and Bevan. I would replace Bevan with Symonds though given the option. Symonds is arguably the most valuable ODI cricketer i have seen.

[Lord]

Dhoni not included?:hmmm:

Yuvi is good but clearly not as good as Symonds as a bat(Even if u want to go by stats) .Symonds was comfortably superior fielder as well. Cant think of any knock that was as destructive as Symonds against Pak in 2003 wc. Just as effective as a spinner in sub continent and can bowl seamers if conditions demand as well.

Remember that match Aus were under pressure 1-0 down as well.He just comes in(at 10-3) and just man handles Murali as if he is some pub street bowler. This game too pure beast mode http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/297798.html

Symonds was good but being the MOS of the WC with 4 MOMs is no joke.To me that swings it in Yuvi's favour.

[adi B]

^symo has the better avg,better S/R,was the better bowler,better fielder.. he too is a wc winner (twice),played some lone match winning innings in difficult situation,though yuvi too has

[BeautifulGame]

Well winning 2 world cups and 1 CT is no joke either. And he was the MOM in the Semi in 03 world cup too.Just like Yuvi's in QF vs Aus arguably the better knock of the 2 considering the respective conditions and attacks.

[Sooda]

perhaps Symonds and MSD will be on the no. 6 poll... Bevan should have been on that

[Debutant]

Ponting, Kohli and AB :yay:

[Detonator]

Ponting, ABDV, Sir Viv Richards :hatsoff:

[Sidhoni]

Dhoni not included?:hmmm:

He has batted more at no.6/7

[Sidhoni]

Richards, Ponting and Kallis leading
