A true all-rounder is a player who is in the top 6 batsman and the top 4 bowlers for his country. Just wondering how many cricketers people would consider to be in this category for a extended period, say at least 5 years. I am not sure that I can confidently say that anyone from the major test playing nations has fit this qualiification.
Gary Sobers seems to be closest but was he really in the Windies top 4 bowlers. Obviously the stronger the country, the harder it is.
Just wondering what people's thoughts are on this. Are there any cricketers who have filled this qualification?
