Well, there maybe disagreements with me, but for me, the most outstanding player was definately Yuraj Singh, hes rocked this place. Your thoughts.

Yuvraj Singh for batting, Daniel Vettori for bowling.

Well Yuvraj was the only player to hit six 6s in one over so far in this tournament so that definately says something about him. He played great today. Unfortunately I didn't see the attack on Chris B. It's probably a good thing too because I wouldn't have wanted India to beat England. Today Vettori sacrificed his wicket though.....

Hayden played a good innings today...maybe if he had been there throughout the match then things might have been different.

Id say Vettori's in with a real shot, His economy rate over the whole tournament is around the 6 mark i think, and he took quite a few wickets.

i think Yuvraj was terrific in two Innings. If he perform like that in the finals too, then he must be the best player. There are also other candidates like Shoaib Malik, Misbah- ul-Haq (Both have more runs than yuvraj), Umar Gul (for his bowling throughout the tournament). If Afridi gets a big score and a few wickets, he deserved it too, as he has almost 12 wickets. |

In my opinion a player of the tournament has to play well in most of the tournament and not only in two games. Yuvraj had only 2 good Innings till now. If he perform like that in the final then he deserve it. there are many other players who has perfprmed well in 2 Innings like Hayden, Misbah, Malik. Vettori, Gul, S Clark and Afridi played beautifully throughout. Afridi has 7 and Yuvraj 6 points in the list for the player of the tournament. I think final will decide

not necessarily; the pressure's on the batsman, isn't it? Scoring two runs a ball? Settling early, playing big shots and doing so consistently. Hardly a batsman's game.

But there are players who hav been more consistent...judging on the basis of 2 matches wont serv the cause!! Yuvraj has been nothing short of outstanding but the more consistent players deserve the spot!! Probabaly.. Gul, Vettori or Hayden. Gul and Vettori have been exceptional...having an economy rate of 5.3 throughout the tournament is something more or equally commendable to the 200 plus strike rate in 2 games

Vettori could be a pick, he really troubled batsmen with his bowling. But, i think it'll be given to a batsman, after all its a batting paradise! |

Now where dou you go Bondy my friend with Clark and Vettori? You ignored consistency for the support of yuvraj!! Fine enough!!! You gave the reason that his 2 inings were instrumental for the indians to make into the finals....then what do you pick from the performance of Clark and Vettori? They could not make into the finals. Gul's bowling was consistent and scripted Pak's victory as well in addition of being consistent

I think if Pakistan wins today, its definetly Afridi, Gul, Malik or Misbah. If India wins today, it has to be Yuvraj Singh. Malik would be also a nice choice. He won two matches with his bat for his team as Yuvraj did it for India. Malik has second highest score in the tournament.

I think it depends on today's performance. But for me it could be Afridi, the man having most wickets for Pakistan and scoring some really useful runs too. Only if he's able to do some real fire works today complimented by a wicket or two, he is the definite, so I can safely put my money on him. Edited by shan - 24 September 2007 at 11:30am |
