We have talked about the most underrated international players, now I thought it would be time to discuss some of the most overrated international players !

[WalkingWicket37]

Satchin Tendulkar
Great in his day, but his time has passed sadly

[Alvaro]

Andrew Symonds

[Jacky]

Broad

[WalkingWicket37]

Broad

He can't be, nobody rates him to begin with lol

[Dhiraj]

Maxwell, Rohit Sharma, Raina, Watson, Broad

[mussaduq]

I agree that no one rates Broad but I agree with Watson, he is too much overrated and looking at his performances Agar is batting more better then him.
Gayle is also very overrated, what do you guys think ?

[mini998]

Sangakkara in ODI/T20's until the last Champions trophy.

watson broad rohit sharma sehwag dhoni (as a keeper and captain)

[WalkingWicket37]

Jade Dernbach! How did I forget him

[uknsaunders]

let's start a fight with Fros23 - Ian Bell lol - no seriously Broad, Watson, Narine, Ashwin, Hughes, Duminy

To say Gayle is over rated is a fair point. He fails a lot, however when he comes off all is forgotten.

Broad is overrated, but only because everyone thinks so highly of him. The media see him as a match winner with bat and ball, however in reality he is a decent bowler then can bat a bit. I think the media have jumped on him as he has a good story - his dad played for england, still works within cricket, good looking lad who'll look alright on the back page.

Broad, Dernbach, Bresnan, Bell, I Sharma, R Sharma, R Taylor, Hughes, Dwayne and Darren Bravo

[StonyFielder]

Vey surprised at some of the names that have popped up in this thread!

Tim Bresnan for me - too placid.

I think there are quite a few average cricketers floating around One Day International/Twenty20 cricket, but they don't make it into the test sides which seem to carry far fewer.

I'd go for Dwayne Bravo as another who's rated highly but doesn't seem to offer a great deal with bat or ball.

[iand123]

Dernbach, Maxwell, Wade.

Broad either plays rubbish or brilliantly - he never just a decent game
