Who is that? World cricket is heading downhill last world cup was really poor-
No stand out fielder all rounder bowler or batsman.

If Saifuddin is the next botham clive rice god help us!!
 
Shadab Khan is not even the best all-rounder in the Pak team, Imad Wasim is. And I'm gonna go with Russell but Windies as a team won't do anything substantial at the WC

This man knows what’s up no one is even talking about the kiwis everyone’s sleeping on em they got a next level side and should easily reach the semis
 
Some other all-rounders that could do significant damage at the World Cup

- Colin de Grandhomme
- Jimmy Neesham
- Imad Wasim
- Andile Phehlukwayo

Jimmy Neesham has really stepped up his power-hitting game. Saw him against Sri Lanka he was smashing them clean as a whistle and a long way too. I honestly think he's a better option than de Grandhomme because he bowls in the mid 130s too whereas de Grandhomme is a dibbily dobbler

If not for injuries, he would have been the best white ball all-rounder in world cricket now. He's miles better with the bat than stokes, Pandya, Grandhomme etc and in terms of bowling may be a close second to Stokes.
 
If we are talking statistically Shakib usually bowls 10 overs or close to 10 overs and bats in top 5 and he might bat 1 down this time so he is surely a big contender to be statistically the best all rounder of the WC.

Other ones can be Santner, Shadab Nabi and Parera because they usually bowl their 10 overs so more chances of picking up wickets and can score few runs as well down the order.

Stokes can be in the game due to his batting if he bats and no 5, bowling wise he rarely bowls his full quota.

Hardik Pandya, Stoinis bat at number 6 or 7 and rarely bowl their full 10 overs so statistically they both are out of contention unless a big knock or a fifer is on the way.

If we are just talking about impact than thats another matter.

I honestly can't remember the last time I witnessed Russell do what he did in IPL in an international match.
 
BD has a few all rounders. Their half all rounder Mehdi Hassan is a crunch player. He just delivers with bat under pressure.

is he bowling allrounder or batting .

He is not an alrounder. He is a bowler. He has muscles and if he connects it goes to the boundary. That is about it.

Shakib has an axe to grind (With BCB, Papon and with the ranking itself). I will leave it at that. He will be coming at #3 batting. Bowling his entire quota (Unless the opponent folds early). The only thing can hamper that is injury. He had a side strain against Ireland. Didn't play in the Finals against WI.
 
I would have put Maxwell, but he is not bowling on these pancake pitches.
 
I could see Russell having a huge impact. He looked in supreme touch in the IPL and these pitches will most likely be flat which brings him into the game.
 
Neesham is a very good call. Class act. However, we all know that Faheem Ashraf would've outperformed all of them if only he was selected :(

I'll jog your memory: West Indies were 259-5 in the 47th over of their group stage game against Pakistan. Russell came in smashed Pakistan to smithereens and Windies ended with 310
 
It will be a fight between Russell, Pandya, Tom Curran and Maxwell.

Stokes is not in the best of forms and his bowling has become ordinary.
 
Russel if he stays fit. His body is made for T20, dont know if he can survive 50 overs.
 
Shakib al Hasan for two reasons:

1. Bangladesh will play at least 9 games and Shakib will bat at #3. He will have plenty of opportunities to pile runs on flat tracks.
2. His left-arm spin will be more useful than Stokes' or Pandya's fast bowling on these dead tracks.
 
Shakib goes into World Cup as No.1 all-rounder

Senior Bangladesh international Shakib Al Hasan has ascended to the top of the MRF Tyres ICC ODI Rankings for all-rounders, ahead of the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2019.

The 32-year-old was in fine form during the tri-nation series in Ireland, which Bangladesh famously won to claim their first title in a multi-nation tournament. In three matches that series, Shakib totalled 140 runs, including two unbeaten half-centuries, to go alongside two wickets.

He now has 359 points, twenty clear of Afghanistan's Rashid Khan, the previous holder of the top ranking, who has now slipped to No.2. Rashid's Afghanistan team-mate Mohammad Nabi rounds out the top three, with 319 points.

Shakib's top ranking is further testament to his utility to the Bangladesh side at a World Cup where all-rounders are set to play a valuable role, with their multi-dimensional skills and varied contributions. "From Afghanistan to England, or from India to West Indies, every team is blessed with top-class all-rounders,” West Indies' former World Cup-winning captain Clive Lloyd had recently said. “That's why I believe it will be an all-rounders' World Cup.”

Pakistan are the only other team to have two players in the top ten, with Imad Wasim at No.4 and Mohammad Hafeez claiming the seventh spot. They are separated by New Zealand's Mitchell Santner (No.5) and England's Chris Woakes, who is up four places to No.6.

Jason Holder, the West Indies skipper, is their top-ranked all-rounder, at No.8. England's Ben Stokes, who is expected to be their MVP at the World Cup, missed out on the top ten by one spot, finishing eight points behind Sri Lanka's Angelo Mathews.

Is this even a debate? Imad Wasim will outshine all the part time cricketers such as Rashid, Sakib, Pandya, Stokes and Moeen Ali

Shakib al Hasan. He is a proper batsman and a proper bowler. It's not even clear what his main strength is as he's so good at both
 
I have a strong feeling this could be Ben Stokes' world cup.

Oh sorry I didn't realize the title properly. I thought it said "who is the best all rounder" but "who will be the best all rounder" is a different question. Shakib will do well but I think Stokes will do the best as England have a very good chance of winning the World Cup.

Yep. I still think Shakib is a better player overall than both of them.

It's probably better that, that thread is hidden, but let me respond you here (for a reason).

I am absolutely neutral in my posts here be sure about it. I actually am more harsh to BD cricket and players than usually I am with PAK players, because I myself do believe they should do better. Do you really thing the praise that Amir, Babar, Fakhar, Shaheen or few others receive in my post - DO They really deserve that? Yes, I am harsh on PCB - and they deserve more than that not only for destroying PAK cricket, but destroying relationship with other boards as well, BCB is just part of it.

But, there is a reason for that response - you can defame a team/player 2 ways - 1. don't mention the success, always try to under value the achievements .... this will hurt the fans, but won't make them angry to respond 2. you do the same with added insult and generalize as a whole and then keep adding insult to that ....

I tagged you in this thread for a particular reason - in coming WC, there are several players can surprise and Saifuddin can be one of them, which is exactly what one BD poster has mentioned ...... have you seen the responses? For a fact, that guy has a better batting & bowling stats than PP recent expired darling Faheem Ashraf against top 8 teams .....

I didn't bother to respond here, because what few random trolls think about some players hardly matters - some of them are trying to recover in that Pandeya thread ... therefore it matters even less, when it comes to all-rounders - I could hardly even post here, let alone back Saif.

But, not everything is individual player and not every word is to pull a few legs.
 
1) Shakib al Hasan
2) Ben Stokes
3) M Hafeez
4) H Pandya

These four are the most impactful players for their team.

Stonis is overrated, he can only bash our trundlers. He will probably bash Bangladesh, West Indies Eth and pick 5fers but against India and England he will be exposed again big time
 
Theoretically it should be Stokes, this is his backyard.

Shakib might do well with the bat, but I fear his SLA bowling will be less than impact-full on these pitches.

Lacks impact.
 
I don’t think Ben Stokes is as great in LOI. His batting is still an asset but his bowling is not that great when we consider how good of a bowler he is in tests. Think Shakib is probably the only genuine allrounder.
 
Watch out for Shadab Khan
I am expecting big perfomances from Shadab Amir Hasan and Fakhar come the world cup
 
Pandya easily. Batting pitches will help him alot & He's a pretty good bowler + Fielder.
 
Mohammad Hafeez will be the best, pitches suit him plus last world cup might aswell go out chucking.
 
Well lots of spin bowling all-rounders are missing from the OP. There is Jadeja from India, Santner from NZ, Rashid, Dawson and Moeen from England. Mohammad Nabi from AFG etc.

You could'nt be more wrong.
Allrounders are the most impactful players, spectacularity beats consistency in case of allrounders.
The problem is that Shakib is a spin bowling allrounder and in odis they are of less value as compared to fast bowling allrounders.Shakib is much more consistent than all the others but still not the most valuable.
 
The best all-rounder in the world by some distance has made his mark already. Ben "Chokes" they would call him, heh.
 
So far ice man Shakib has been phenomenal.

Saifuddin has also been great...nearly won BD back to back matches against RSA and NZ.
