Poor man's versions of cricket

this idiom is often heard for media celebrities , yesterday i heard it for soccer players . i think in cricket we have a range of versions too , this is my list , which , as always , is highly arguable

poor mans version - rich mans version

gul - waqar
afridi - sanath
salman butt - chanderpaul
gambhir - ganguly
rana - razzaq
kulasekara - pollock
misbah - inzi
ntini - alan donald
shoaib akhtar 34 - shoaib akhtar 26
imran nazir ( in form ) - yuvraj
sami / shaun tait - shoaib akhtar / brett lee
jacob oram - chris cairns
sreesanth - zaheer
irfan pathan - kapil dev
sohail tanvir - irfan pathan
ajmal - mendis
brett lee - denis lillee
malinga - shane bond / steyn

feel free to add ..........

These are the ones that made me laugh.

Especially the Salman Butt one. You outright insulted Chanderpaul with that one.

Mohammad Asif is the true poor man's version of McGrath.

So much promise. Everyone in world cricket was raving that here comes the new Mcgrath and look what hes done to himself.

Malinga is no poor. He holds his own. Them fast yorkers even Bond - Steyn can't bowl as consistant as Malinga. Those are like honing missles. Only other current bowler can do that is Gul.

Malinga - Waqar would not be even doing a justice.

Correction- From what I saw of Wayne Parnell add him to the perfect yorker list as well
