I'm biased towards Sehwag, since he's one of my favorite players of all time.
Greenidge and Haynes are under rated. So disappointing to look at those old west indies teams compared to how their team is run these days.

I don't understand it. They're still a huge cricket community. They just constantly choke in big games. Gayle hasn't been the same since he returned from injury last season.
At least they won the 20/20 World Cup recently.

Got it out of the foot marks. He'd do that on a worn pitch reliably. I like the GIF of his flipper that goes straight on, he'd bowl a few that turned like crazy then through that one in to fool people.

I personally wouldn't mention Shane Watson in this thread.

Michael Clark is definite allstar level. Borderline elite.

The thing with Clark is he was fairly shit imo when Australia was raping everyone, like I never looked at him as a top 5-7 player on the squad, maybe I'm remembering it wrongly but I never felt he was truly elite tier when Australia was at it's best.

I'm inclined to agree with you, but, on numerous occasions ive heard shield players and current australian players refer to him being still an "elite level all-rounder" in the game today

He was one of the best at using the footmarks to his advantage. But the trajectory of the delivery by itself after the bounce is actually not that crazy compared to any world class spinner, it's the crazy drift he gets on that delivery beforehand that makes this insane.

They don't want to piss off the boys club that australian cricket has become. Watson is trash as a test player and has been for years.
my favourite watson moment if gough making fun of him for being scared of a ghost and having to sleep on lees floor because he was scared to sleep alone
