in top 10 West Indies batsmen, Weekes is about 5, behind Viv, Sobers, Lara and Headley in that order.

Chanderpaul does not and will not ever make top 10.

Better records in and against the strongest teams of his time, carried a team on his back for the better part of a decade, better to watch.
so is Kevin Pietersen also better than Everton Weekes? also, the guy who voted Yousuf over Gower has no job talking about performance against best teams

No, Pietersen is not. And yes, MoYo is better than Gower, get over it.
Why not? he averages 45 vs Australia and South Africa and 48 vs Murali Sri Lanka IE the three best bowling lineups of his time, Weekes 39 vs Australia and 45 vs England IE the two best bowling lineups of his era, KP better?

it's self contradictory, Gower averages 45 vs Australia, 33 vs West Indies (43 in WI) and 49 vs Pakistan IE the three best of his time, Moyo 29 vs all three of his time. Yet somehow MoYo is better...bias?
