Yeh, hence why you only tend to see foreign players who have palyed against England in the last year.

Don't see how someone not good enough to play for their country can be a Cricketer of the Year. Ludicrous

You don't understand how the Wisden Cricketer of the Year awards work. You can only be selected once for it, and it takes into account your effect, as Mr Pinson says, on the English cricket season. Last year, Chris Read averaged 75 with the bat in FC cricket, and captained Nottinghamshire to a well deserved championship. He is also, as Dave mentioned, one of the 2 best keepers in the country, along with Fozzy. Much deserved, if you ask me.

Ahh, you get it now! Well I'm still posting my rant, it took me long enough! Tamim had a massive effect, his performances against us over here were nothing short of phenomenal, I think that's why they gave it to him. He gave Bangladesh a genuine chance of winning against us!

Ahah it was a good little rant anyway. Fair play, tbh I cant actually remember the Bangladesh series, all i remember was Trott getting 200 and I think bell made a comeback or something. Oh well!

Glad you said that and not me, had I said it I'd have been making an agressive post and trying to insight a fight

Is that a threat? 

[jonpinson]

Oh my god.

[alexrickyponting]

Oh my god.

Aha I am now fairly sure you did not catch the sarcasm? 

[Jeet]

I agree, but for me, watson and trott should be in there over iqbal and laxman

Tamim was awesome last year. 800+ runs at nearly 60. Laxman was also pretty awesome, his hundred at Colombo(all scored on the final day) was magical, as was his 73no vs Oz at Mohali where he batted injured to see India home.
