Rejecting 'analysis by checklist' and 'skill absolutism' since Dec '09
'Stats' is not a synonym for 'Career Test Averages'

ex: say you started watching at time t
Then we can say you've seen players who played after time t. Careers from time t is a different statement.
re the rest
itstl 40% is a LOT of matches for tendulkar to lord it over the average (borderline) player, for kallis' bowling.
(Fwiw I think Kallis will play on after tendulkar finishes making this a moot point)

Crabb to be taken into the shop for a full service ASAP.
he probably misses his old glasses
Kallis is so underrated he's overrated.
★★★★★
it's not the numbers but the manner in which he plays "ugly and boring" leads others to not rate him highly..
Even though I don't find him boring I can see why some would, but I just cannot see how anyone can say he's an ugly player. At least with the bat. His strokeplay is great to watch.
His bowling action at times may have too much chest in it, but him bowling some jaffers that beat the bat and then outswinging half volleys that get wickets always makes me smile![]()
Probably the thing which I find most interesting about Kallis is how people rate him in ODIs. In Tests I think he's rated fairly, an ATG batting all rounder who has been enormous for SA producing so many crucial performances.
In ODIs though I'm amazed when people pick him in their all time ODI XI's - I just don't see it at all.
