New Feature: The Greatest Test Innings

[NUFAN]

Meant PF Warner's ranking of 29th, which was a winning Test.

 

[Days of Grace]

Warner's innings rated a slightly disappointing 15.68.

The main reasons being that his team was never under any pressure during his innings, i.e. the fall of the first wicket was when the score was already past 200, and he scored no runs batting with the lower half of the order.

 

[Satguru]

I know this is about test innings, but any way to find out how high would this javed innings would be if it was a test match? Its a close defeat but he got 200* out of a total of 311

Essex v Glamorgan at Colchester, 29 Aug-1 Sep 1981

 

[Spark]

Hmm, a bit disappointing. Guess it shows just how hard it is to break into the list.

 

[Howe_zat]

How much, if at all, does the strike rate count in this?

It's your list and system, but I'd think passing their score and contributing what 70% of the runs at that point would render going on with the tail largely irrelevant from a match perspective.

Not having a go at all.

So in short, if he did the same job without the support from Ed Cowan and with wickets tumbling at the other end he would have ended with a higher rating - seems fair to me.

 

[Days of Grace]

Basically.

I mean, you could make a very fair argument that Warner was under no pressure whatsoever throughout his innings.

You could refute that by saying that by playing the way he did, he took the pressure away from himself and his teammates, but I have covered that by having a multiplier for strike-rate, and the faster you score, the higher % of the team total you will get anyway.

Also doesn't help that the Indian bowling lineup is rank.

Updated list

Have added in "% of team runs scored whilst at the wicket", so innings like Fredericks at the Wacca get higher value. Because of this, Gilchrist's innings against Pakistan moves up.

Also, added a multiplier on first innings lead/deficit.

I've wrote this before, but this time I am confident that this is the final update. Thanks for your interest and feedback.

I've been fascinated by your rankings, but I think they have some kind of inbuilt bias toward the modern era. If I've counted this right, a 100-year period from 1877-1976 accounts for 10 of the 30 best innings of all time, and then four years from 1998-2001 account for another 10 of the 30 best innings of all time.

Somehow, that doesn't feel right. I know there's a lot more cricket played now then there was then, so the sheer number of innings to evaluate is greater, but nevertheless I think a list like this somehow needs to reflect the degree to which an innings was great by the standards of its period. Can you see any way to factor that in?

 

[Spark]

I'd say that it pretty accurate reflects the quantity of cricket played tbh, which is what you'd expect.

More cricket played against a better spread of teams. Why so many great innings were played between 1998-2001 is just an anomaly, tbh.

 

[Satguru]

So, im guess Mahela's innings would make it into the top 100 quite easily... top 50 even

 

[Days of Grace]

Mahela surprisingly weighs in just outside the top 10! Takes over from Tillakaratne as the leading Sri Lankan on the list.
