England pacer David Willey picked his all-time ODI XI in a recent interaction with Sky Sports. The left arm pacer included an array of legends in his side and also justified the views behind choosing the individuals.
Below, is the list of Willey’s all time ODI XI, along with his views, as he stated in his chat with Sky Sports on the sidelines of the ODI series against Sri Lanka.
CHRIS GAYLE:
So destructive up top. He is one of those players who can take the game away from you in a handful of balls. As a bowler, trying to work out your plans in the powerplay to someone like that, especially at a small ground, is a nightmare. Gayle can clear the biggest of boundaries.
Batsman like him, Brendon McCullum etc, have helped change the perception of what a par score is in one-day cricket – he is a genuine match winner.
