Daniel Luca Vettori. Bowler, batsman, (ex)-captain, former selector, man, hero, and probably washes the team kit as well... Like Swanny as well, and of course Trescothick!

Geraint Jones. One of the earliest I times I ever watched cricket with my dad he scored some runs, not sure how many, but been my favourite player ever since. I was with him through the good times and the bad..

Lara and Atherton. Flamboyant class and the complete opposite, both however I could watch all day.

I would like to chat to the best test batsman ever, the best modern day batsman in all formats, and a decent all rounder you could have a beer with!
So Bradman, Sachin, and Freddie!!

Robin Smith
Alec Stewart
Mike Brearley

and Douglas Jardine

also, even though he is an Aussie - Mike Hussey is someone who massively impresses me as a person and a player.

In regards to the best modern day batsman in all formats, I think that honour goes to Hussey. I was going to say Trott as well but he doesn't play T-20's

Through extensive reading F.S Trueman has got to be my favorite player although i've only ever seen minimal footage of him bowling. 307 wickets in 67 Test matches at a time where English cricket was very much favourable to the 'gentlemen' is a top achievement for a miners son. If he'd have kept his mouth shut he'd have played well over 100 tests but it wasn't his style, as anyone who listened to him on TMS will know. Also served for his country in the RAF.

At present i'm a big fan of Jesse Ryder and A.B De Villiers, think they'd be at 4 & 5 in my world XI!
