Best Overseas players of the last 10 years?
« on: March 20, 2012, 06:17:55 PM »

A possibility of RP back at the county ground?

I love being a Somerset supporter, I think we get all the best overseas, with Jayasuriya, Langer, Smith, Ponting, Pollard...... but what do you gents think!

And to further this the overseas player of 90s was Wasim Akram in my opinion. Both guys who fitted into their County like 'locals' and were loved by team-mates and fans for that reason, as well as being world-class performers of course!

The best left-arm bowler ever in the opinion of many wise cricketers

Darren Lehmann was phenomenal at Yorkshire.

Also, Mike Hussey was prolific at Northants.

In the 90s, Carl Hooper & Wasim Akram.

There's plenty, hence why the topic was from the last 10 years!
