Worst player you've ever seen?

[ioppolo]

Interesting you say that, as read about him quite recently - apparently has moved over to WA to play grade cricket this summer.

Someone has to slot in to our fragile top order

With Bancroft, both the Marshes and Stoinis (+ Phillipe) likely available for most the year I would expect some more improvement. Am very bullish on Jake Carder too. For a batsman of Cartwright's ability and technique surely can't be struggling as much as he has either for much longer.

 

[RohitSharma]

Mashrafe Mortaza - He also captains Bangladesh

 

[MJG14]

I remember West Indian Rajendra Chandrika struggling in the tests he played. I thought he played awfully in the series in Australia, but it turns out he averaged 32 in that series.

He most certainly was not impressive though, with a career average of 14.

His average from five tests is 14 so you may have mixed up stats somewhere

He used to be a gun. Had a shocking world cup though

Yeah, that was poorly worded. I meant that he averaged 32 in the series in Australia.

His knees are absolutely shot.

Hopeless player. Got in on one first class hundred and an average of 25 at the time

Having watched a number of Afghanistan matches in this World Cup to see players like Mujeeb and Rashid... Gulbadin Naib has to be right up there.

Terrible player with the bat and ball. Most of his wickets have come from players trying to slog his trash out of the park.

Captian Gulbadin Naib

Janes Tredwell always struck me as being the definition of fecal matter when I watched him bowl but his record is surprisingly good

 

[Blue Arrow]

One and done test spinner for England, Simon Kerrigan. Bowled lots of half trackers and full tosses to Watson in the last test of 2013 in England and got spanked. Had a serviceable county career but got really nervous in that test.

[CrazyJoeFevola]

Wes Agar without question

 

[Seagrave_Holmes]

Mitchell Marsh as a number 6 batsman at test level

 

[boondy]

Guptill

Used to wonder how he could be so poor in tests yet such a beast (& pretty consistently) in ODI's & T20I's. Technique was never pretty but it's not like a white ball doesn't swing in the early overs of ODI's in NZ.

But yeah that was one of the most horrendous form lines for a batsman throughout a world cup I can ever recall. While unlikely could well still have a final to play in too!

 

[Balls In]

Tufnell

 

[Gersman]

Glenn Trimble. Absolute potato.

Might not be able to bat, but thank goodness he can field!

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Marcus Stoinis.

 

[Crashy]

Handscomb

Absolutely if we're talking recently, dude had the same issues 2 years ago and I thought he must of rectified them, that ball that got him tonight did nothing, he just missed it, horrible player, lock him in for no3 in the Ashes, might open the bowling too.

 

[omarlittle1]

Marcus Stoinis is right up there for me. I loathe "all rounders" who can't bat or bowl.
