Better All Rounder Pair

[subshakerz]

If like you have 6 NOs ever, that just means you had a habit of throwing your wicket at the end. Especially given you are a lower middle order batsman. It definitely means Botham wasn't unbeaten often with a 50 or 60, like Jadeja was 4 times just in this Series as he ran out of partners or the match ended in a draw.

So Steve Waugh is better than Ponting I guess based on this.

Chanders underrated lower middle order batsman amirite?

Chanders was a dick who batted low and outright stat padded. I also never stayed Averages are absolute and RPI invalid, but taking RPI without averages is dumb. Border has a RPI of 44 IIRC.

Ok so now that Coronis mentioned Chanderpaul I wanna say...I think Jadeja kind of sucks when batting with the tail, he's cool when batting with the batsmen or all rounder but with the tail he's kind of bad, what was Botham like with the tail?

The anti-Chanders agenda is crazy on this forum

Subz with Lara and you with Chanders have basically killed the 2 best batters' rep, that WI have produced in the last 40 years

I heard some dude already got Viv. Sobers has the whole NZ thing going on so nobody really cares about him anymore. Who’s next?

Nothing is killing the reputation of the Windies big four IE Headley, Sobers, Viv or Lara. I think the biggest hit job you can do on a West Indies bat would be on their fifth Greatest Batsman IE Weekes but I'll just shut it down.

I got the Ws, just need someone to pick on Headley now

 

[Johan]

It's pointless to go after the Ws when I can just shut down anything against them, It's even more pointless to go after George Headley because it is George ****ing Headley.

You are taking scored from 6 and lower and then in your post made a declaration of who is better as an overall bat. Obviously it's a poor approach.

I was commenting on 6th spot batsmen. I think neither Jadeja nor IK are marginal case as you declared. Both can bat at 6th spot in 2nd half of career. Jadeja is clearly better bat at 6th spot due to how often he scores 50+. That was the point I was making.

Over all, I do think that jadeja is better bat, but my post was about 6th spot. As I said earlier, not everything is about hatching a deep plan to put IK up or down. You may think that way and read comments that way, but most people just comment normally.

Feasted on second string English sides at home and was poor in his one shot against the Aussies. Dismissed most by a 48 year old bloke missing half a finger.

Give me a top six bat you would pick with five tons in 80 odd tests.

This is crazy - for what team?

If it's for a World XI ATG team, then sure, you wouldn't pick someone like that.
If it's for country XI ATG teams, he'd still get into quite a few.

If it's just for country teams in general at any given point in time, he'd get into most.

He wouldnt get into his own teams top six most of his career is my point

Nah.. they just think they have. People who actually watch and understand cricket know its full of ****.

 

[Johan]

Don't group me with Subs and Chanderpaul with Lara for **** sakes

Both deserved comparisons imo

I reckon me with Chanderpaul and you with hmmm Stokes, Anderson, Compton are all in a similar boat.
