@Raees Gavin Larsen was actually a solid ODI bowler - he wasn't there to take wickets, but keep the runs down.

:drool:

I see some guys are picking really bang average players but some others are picking some hyped players who didn't reached great heights but were/are players with fair bit of ability and decent careers. May turn out to be a factor in the end.
 
I'd take redtigers word for it - he is a Bangladesh fan i think

More reason not to then.

I saw enough of him in any case. shit player with poor stats. Just checked again to be on the safe side.

More than a 3rd of his wickets are against Kenya and Zimbabwe:lol:

That's because Kenya and Zimbabwe were the only teams playing us back then:)

@The Man Himself Not denying that ishant is better than rafique, I couldn't think of anyone else with more than 100 wickets though:(
 
Me and @Varun had Larsen in the actual ODI draft. :lol:

feck you all. He was unplayable in the 99 WC along with the other wobbly kiwi bowler. Shit pick for this draft.
 
Thank you. I'm not one of these deluded Bengalis who make outrageous statements on facebook and cricinfo but I will say that Rafique is the only former player (batsman or bowler) who would make our current odi side.
Bashar? Ashraful?
Including games vs Zimbabwe and associate nations he had a strike rate of nearly 1 wicket every 9 overs! If you exclude these countries, his S/R is one every 10 overs
