sir,

By far the best pace bowler is surely - either one of these.,,,DK Lillee Glenn McGrath Trueman Hadlee Imran Ambrose Holding Marshall Donald
Wasim was good but he comes in the category of Pollock, Walsh, Garner, waqar.
At times waqar was showing glimps of being the best. but gets carried away.
by shear effort level -WAQAR was my fav bowler.

I'm quite surprised that Shakib-Al Hassan was not selected by any team in the ICL being the best all-rounder... can someone explain me why??

It is IPL not ICL..
In yesterday auction only 17 (not sure) members were allowed to pick for all eight teams(there is restriction of ten foriegn players per team)
Teams havent had luxury to pick most of them

They are for sale compared to soccer players

They are for sale compared to soccer players

Almost for free yes if you compare it to Kaka's 100 million offer or Ronaldo's.

I dont know why someone would get Ashraful. The guy sucks.

All Bengali players suck, don't they?

no...sourav ganguly doesnt
and seriosly bangladesh's team has really talented players but somehow it's still coming to terms at functioning as a team...they have a bright future comparable to india's and pakistan's for all they lack is experience...

Well, the PAK team sucks ,too. We need new players, those players only want money and don't feel proud of playing for the nation, they are a shame for us!

 

[macintosh]

He is a very good hitter, aint he???
I still remember his 100 against AUS in ENG in which Aus lost to BAN.

 

[EagleEyes]

Just because he scored a 100 years ago. Doesn't mean he is good enough buy in the IPL. The best would have have been Sakibul-Hasan.

Bangla has good players, not all.
