Pietersen 4824 @ 48.24 with 16 centuries

Pretty sure this was discussed in a heap of threads of late.

I vote Pietersen because he plays for England and I like England players better. There, easy.

 

[Top_Cat]

KP more of a big match player for mine.

 

[NasserFan207]

I'd take Sangakkara personally.

Er to validate that statement I'll need the following:

-Seventeen cricinfo scorecards
-6 statsguru analyses
-3 graphs

Thanks.

 

[King Pietersen]

I vote Pietersen because I'm a biased ****.

Kumar Sangakkara is by far the more versatile and more consistent player. You don't even need their career records to figure that one out.

 

[gwo]

Sangakarra at this point in their careers, but I believe Pietersen will make a much better fight of it by the end of his career.

 

[G.I.Joe]

I think we need to weed out the biased English vote, discuss preferences for skin tone, and analyse their respective swaggers at the crease.

What's Sangakkara's record like against Warne and McGrath?............

Seriously, I'm not even going to bother getting into this conversation. I'll just let wtf_ben(insertrandomnumbershere) make a **** out of himself.

Doesn't count unless said runs were made in Pakistan.

 

[sledger]

The irrelevant third option made me laugh, the suggestion that Pratters is better than anyone, heh.

Realise it's in jest, but no need to aggravate what's already a bit of a tense situation between you guys.


Anywho, would definitely take Sanga over KP at this stage. Still early days for KP (and Sanga too, tbf, he's only 32), so who knows in a few years time.

 

[sledger]

Yes, was in jest tbf. Candy WAG.

On a serious note I would probs take Kumar most times.

 

[Jono]

Sanga just seems a way way way better bloke.

 

[sledger]

Sanga just seems a way way way better bloke.

I'd defo agree with this. However, the fact that KP is a bit of a jackass just makes me like him more. You don't find many nicer than Sangakara though, seems like a really top bloke.

 

[GIMH]

Pietersen is plenty likeable IMO, what you see is what you get

Are there any bowlers other than Warne and McGrath?

 

[GIMH]

Are there any bowlers other than Warne and McGrath?

Yeah but they all suck

 

[Migara]

Definietly, the runs made against them worth 100 times than rauns made against the others.
