I think the best batsman may be Dhoni(india) or Grame Smith(s.africa) because the play amazingly on flat pitches.(West Indies have flat pitches).\n\nThe best bowler may be Asif(pakistan) or Gillespe(australia).

The best batsmen is Inzaman ul Haq, and the best bowler is Shoaib Akhtar\n\nRight now its quite difficult to pick out a bad player - because they are all playing very good cricket...and wow what a super test that was to come back and win against India - wow - incredible...\n\nI'm an Indian fan - but India wilted under akhtar/razzaq/asif attack...

Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar (born 24 April 1973) is an Indian cricketer. He holds several batting records, including the most Test centuries and the most one-day international centuries, and was rated in 2002 by Wisden as the second greatest Test batsman ever, after Sir Don Bradman[1]. He received the Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna, India's highest sporting honour, for 1997-1998, and the civilian award Padma Shri in 1999. Tendulkar was a Wisden Cricketer of the Year in 1997 and is considered one of the greatest batsmen of all-time.\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sachin_Tendulkar\n\nSachin was a princely state in India during the British Raj, located in the modern state of Gujarat, in the Surat District.\n\nThe present-day industrial township of Sachin is located about 20 km south of the city of Surat, and is a mainline railway station on the Mumbai-Vadodara trunk route belonging to the Western Railway (India). The ruins of the fort of Sachin are evident while passing through the state highway that links Surat and Navsari which bisects the town.\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sachin_%28princely_state%29

best batsmen\n1)rahul dravid -greatest technician of all times, worth applause for his consistency and mental strength.now a very good 1-day player aswell.\n2)ricky ponting-might break few of tendulkar's records in the near future\n3)tendulkar-dropped 2 places only due to his form..still a very good 1-day player when he gets going.but with the talent he has & the volume of cricket he plays ,should have been more consistent\n4)inzamam ul haq-ice cool, or atleast he looks so\n5)herschelle gibbs\n\n6)mathew hayden-now slightly out touch,once there were talks if he was a better batsman than sachin\n7)brain lara-now this guy makes 375 in a test match,after almost a decade someone breaks it ;it  took him only few months to claim it back.but seriously needs some motification to bring out his talent\n8)jaques kallis-one of the best all-rounders the game has produced.\n9)kumara sangakkara-made his mark very quickly in international cricket\n10)kevin peiterson-now this was a tough choice-his exploits in international cricket are limted due to recent entry..but his abilties might take him to great heights..or should i change him with dhoni????\nbowling\n1)muralitharan -this something most experts would agree with.all his life he was blamed for chucking.still came up with gr8 results.\n2)shane warne-another spinner; quality spinners are hard to play\n3)glenn mcgrath-can bowl all day long in the corrridor of uncertainity.\n4)makhaya ntiny-got lots of venom in his bowling\n5)shaun pollock-another mcgrath like bowler\n6)chamind vass\n7)steve harmison\n8)toss up b/w akhtar & bond\n9)andrew flintoff\n10)anil kumble-gr8 fighter;but gets  dissapointed when a catch is dropped or someone misfields\nthere are many more.....\nfielders\nnow can't rate them -i'll just list them \ngibbs,ponting,kaif,yuvraj,rudolph,salman bhatt,..\nslip fielding-warne,fleming,dravid,astle....\n\nnow there are chances that i might have missed a few names in these lists...u may or may not agree with me...i tried to justufy my choices...

Suresh Raina definitely, but Robin Uthappa may end up in the opening slot one day...too premature to juge him based on just 2 ODI. besides suresh is not a contender for the top order
