All-Time World XIs: Discussion Thread

[subshakerz]

Yeah its a joke… couldn’t have seen it coming once subz joined a thread where kyear was posting could we?

Lol Kyear and I are actually agreeing a decent bit in this thread oddly enough.

 

[Johan]

anyway, is Viv still ahead?

Greenidge way ahead of Boycott

Boycott


depends, strokeplay? Barry, defense? Geoffrey


Barry


Neither lol, Hobbs. But Boycott as I think he is less likely to get out playing something silly

Barry is clearly the better batsman, don't think there's much argument to that, so we obviously disagree.

Barry also had an excellent defence btw.

Hutton and Boycott together stagnates the batting and allows the bowlers to settle and the captain to stick to game plans. Makes life a bit more difficult for the guys to come, and even in partnerships.

Greenidge or Root

And your snide comments add so very much.

And I was directly asked multiple times to answer questions on cricketers.

I didn't bring up the Barry chatter, and the other discussions were very much on topic.

But it's clear who I really need to start ignoring.

I can't think of a more dreadful sight for spectators.

Sutcliffe and Boycott

 

[Johan]

though Greenidge is still not even ahead of Gower, let alone Boycott, I don't know how I've let this nonsense Greenidge glaze pass.

Sutcliffe and Boycott

I do think hyper defensive batting does have a net dampening effect on team spirit.

Yes surviving the new ball is important but lack of intent helps the opposition. One reason I am so critical of Kallis batting.

Barry and Jaiswal would be a nice sight

at best it's a tiebreaker, doesn't matter tho as Geoffrey beats Barry up, we don't need a tiebreaker.

Not helping your case here.

I love slow batting.

If Barry is better than Greenidge then saying he is better than Boycott isn't silly at all.
