I have to disagree with that. Ashwin is a very good spinner, but Perry is the women's equivalent of Kallis, who would make it into the team as either a seamer or a batswoman. Nobody would pick Ashwin as a pure batsman, and his spinning still has questions outside spinning territories (the subcontinent and WI). He's fine where he is, and I'd be open to promoting Perry up over Root frankly were it not for the forum's England bias.

I've adjusted the post requirements as a compromise.
1000: Ashwin 1500: Perry 2000: Root 2500: AB
Sri gets to stay as Ashwin for longer but Perry is still ranked higher.

Here is a reminder to Lord Matt, that he causeth the rankings to change. The county season is just about to start, and it is the right time to start discussions as to who gets what.

Ah yes, all suggestions welcome as always.

Here's a starting point for you all to mull over:
Kieran Noema-Barnett – Gloucs. Shiv Thakor – Derbs. Karl Brown – Lancs. Mark Cosgrove – Leics. Aneurin Donald – Glam. Samit Patel – Notts. Ben Duckett – Nhants. Mason Crane – Hants Sam Curran – Surr. Tom Abell – Som. Steve Magoffin – Suss. Sam Northeast – Kent Keith Barker – Warks. Toby Roland-Jones – Middx. Tim Bresnan – Yorks. Paul Collingwood – Dur Alastair Cook – Ess. Jack Shantry - Worcs.

How many changes do we actually want/require? Duckett needs to move up a fair bit, otherwise it's still looking pretty solid. Also I'd like to see Jennings back in for Colly, this time without a change in position. Don't forget the Kaneria and Grace ranks Lord Matt!

Yeah, could bring Jennings back.
In that list I've made 6 changes since last year, and played with positions slightly. New players - Donald, Crane, Curran, Barker, Roland-Jones, Bresnan.

Big fan of cap'n Abell but surely your ciderman should be Tres, Trego or TV for meme value?

One thing I tell you, Karl Brown is must be the ranking for 0 posts. That bloke doesn't even justify a ranking. Batty for Surrey? And please.. Bell/Trott for Warks. Leach or Tresco in for Abell? And maybe you can bring Shahzad in for Magoffin and demote Sussex to a lower ranking. Vince to get the ranking for 35-40 haha. Decisions, decisions everywhere.
Can we have an honourary rank for James Tomlinson?

Can't we shake things up a little for now? We could have rankings that mimic the standings of the teams (ie. Derby at the bottom till Midds up the top) with the highest ranking of course reserved for WG.

A ranking system without Shantry? Are you mad!?

I'll be making the changes on Monday or Tuesday. I have been pondering the above suggestions. My own thoughts are that we should try and 'reward' high performing county players where appropriate. Hence Barker for Warks, for example.

I hope we've got a couple of humorous tripe ones too! Tresco is a new entry...
