Of course small sample sizes are the fundamental problem with cricket statistics - very rarely are the sample sizes large enough to dismiss natural statistical variation as an explanation. Let alone trying to factor in types of pitches, performing when it matters, quality of the oppositions etc etc. So they can only ever be a rough guide as a supplement to subjective opinion.
Sanga is awesome, been that for a few years now. I think that not based on what he has done at home either, as I don't watch him at home.

Good Drama that - would Bird stay in or not. I can see why Lyon was promoted to 10.

It's like can Johnson actually do anything else this match to cement his place in the side now? It's a one man team.
