Brian lara vs steve smith

[subshakerz]

A 50s English opener will always be better to have a lower SR than a higher one. Think it's common sense.

Which I acknowledged already.

Which I acknowledged already.

Could you summarize the point you were trying to make?

 

[akilana]

This top order would put everyone to sleep
Hutton
Gavaskar
Barrington
Kallis
Flower
Border

you forgot dravid

 

[Johan]

not sure Barrington was boring tbh, dismantled spinners.

 

[akilana]

At this stage smith ahead of prince but every chance of decline (of reflexes )by end of his career which means average comes down and maybe rated below bcl and srt

agree.. at this point, he's ahead of both lara and sachin.

 

[Coronis]

1. that's silly, the job of a Batter is to play to the match situation.

2. Duh, I'd play along and not pretend I don't have any biases for English players, same way you do for Pakistan or Coronis for Australian, that doesn't change the fact that Greenidge is statistically comparable to a guy not even close to elites.

Do I actually though? Serious question

 

[Johan]

I think so.

 

[sayon basak]

I think so.

I never noticed tbh.

 

[Coronis]

I think so.

Yeah curious tbh what biases do I have towards Aussies

 

[Johan]

You're a Root hater, that for example, is Aussie bias.

 

[Coronis]

lol

 

[Johan]

lol

 

[sayon basak]

I'm gonna be very honest. I thought Coronis was South African.

 

[Johan]

oh dear oh dear, how did you ever get that idea

 

[subshakerz]

Could you summarize the point you were trying to make?

That I wouldn't put Hutton in the top tier since he was a conservative bat which is understandable as opener and I think all else equal aggressive bars are preferable and my requirement for best of the best

 

[subshakerz]

Do I actually though? Serious question

No you aren't. You have clear distinction between how you rank and your favorites

 

[Johan]
