He was nothing like the same bowler after WSC, in England in 1981 he took a lot of wickets on fairly helpful surfaces bowling little more than fast-medium and was actually overshadowed by Terry Alderman.Why is that? Half his career is played post WSC, and does roughly as well.
Thanks for the explanation.He was nothing like the same bowler after WSC, in England in 1981 he took a lot of wickets on fairly helpful surfaces bowling little more than fast-medium and was actually overshadowed by Terry Alderman.
3 spinners would be too much anywhere except on rank turners in India. Replace Kumble with Wasim Akram and perhaps Langer with Hayden and that would be my team. Although I might be tempted to have Ponting over Steve Waugh..this can be a good side:-
1.S.Gavaskar
2.J.Langer
3.B.Lara
4.S.Tendulkar
5.S.Waugh
6.A.Gilchrist
7.K.Dev
8.S.Warne
9.A.Kumble
10.M.Muralitharan
11.G.Mcgrath
(12th man).R.Dravid
Thats actually true if you take WSC to mean after it ended rather than after it started as I wrongly assumed.He was nothing like the same bowler after WSC, in England in 1981 he took a lot of wickets on fairly helpful surfaces bowling little more than fast-medium and was actually overshadowed by Terry Alderman.
well u have almost changed the whole team..................3 spinners would be too much anywhere except on rank turners in India. Replace Kumble with Wasim Akram and perhaps Langer with Hayden and that would be my team. Although I might be tempted to have Ponting over Steve Waugh..
Edit: And Imran instead of Kapil.
Steve was not better batsman but much better captain than Ricky Ponting.well u have almost changed the whole team..................
but i think waugh is much better than ponting
I'm interested in the Boycott selection for post-WSC. Must say I've not looked closely at his record from 1979 onwards, though I'd thought his best days may have been behind him by then.
- Gavaskar
- Boycott
- Richards
- Tendulkar
- Lara
- S. Waugh
- Gilchrist
- Imran
- Warne/Ambrose (would bat lower if its Ambrose)
- Marshall
- McGrath
Picked a spinner against my will as I wanted a deep batting lineup. This lineup bats until #10, and bats pretty well. Has an excellent batting order and a fantastic bowling lineup.
Three or Four Australians and three or four West Indians out of eleven hints at the dominance of the two sides over the last thirty years. Two Indians, one Englishman and one Pakistani round out the eleven.
