Who's Done the Most Damage?

[Thala_0710]

not only is it not statistically incorrect but it was also a take many, many had in their playing days.

Many many people are stupid

 

[sayon basak]

You're basically saying that Tendulkar is a marginally better bat than Compton.... It's getting laughable now

I mean, that's the whole point. It's only fair compare a laughable take with another laughable take.

Even if you think my take is laughable... It's simply incomparable... Hayden and Greenidge are close to each other in level... Compton/Weekes and Tendulkar are not... So if mine is laugh worthy, that should be ban worthy

Subs is not convincing because he pushes too hard and more importantly he debates Cricketers everyone has a strong opinion on via watching them, Coronis naturally would've more influence because he debates against Cricketers people haven't really watched and don't have strong opinions on, it's always easier to draw on a blank canvas than it is to draw over and edit an already made painting.

It's more interesting to debate cricketers you are vested in somehow.

Let's say Tendulkar is 100 and Hayden is 35, Greenidge would be about 45 maybe 50 if really lucky, Compton would be like 75 or 80.

@Thala_0710 I apologize.

Exactly... You get why Hayden over Tendulkar is much worse then?

Brother even statistically Gower has an edge, peer reputation is relative, Gower wins eye test too.

 

[Thala_0710]

@Thala_0710 I apologize.

Too late but I'll take it

 

[subshakerz]

Yeah nobody has strong opinions on Viv.

I honestly don't recall a single argument you made against Viv.

 

[Johan]

nah marginally worse.

 

[Thala_0710]

This is what I've to put up with.... And then I go to my college friend chat and there I need to argue why Bumrah has surpassed Kohli in tests..... Sigh

Let's say Tendulkar is 100 and Hayden is 35, Greenidge would be about 45 maybe 50 if really lucky, Compton would be like 75 or 80.

Root/Ponting/Kallis/Dravid/Sangakkara come in 80-90 range.

Hammond/Gavaskar/Sutcliffe/Headley from about 90-94 range

Lara/Smith lie somewhere between 94-98 range

Hutton/Sobers/Viv lie somewhere 98-101 range, practically equal.

 

[Johan]

0 is Shoaib Bashir btw

Many many people are stupid

Gower beats him statistically, stalemate on peer reputation and Gower wins on eye Test.

Umm, you missed the whole point. The rating is objectively incorrect. Nobody in this world is insane enough to think Sachin is 3 times as good as Hayden and Twice as good as Greenidge. And specially, Compton is not more than twice as good as Hayden. This just doesn't happen with anyone bar Bradman.

If Sachin is 8.75/10, then Hayden is 7/10, Greenidge is 7.25/10 and Compton is 7.5/10.

Silly, If Hayden is 35 and Sachin is 100, then Sachin is not 3× Hayden as 3×35 is 105.

 

[subshakerz]

Ashwin and Lara to me seems to have had their rating drop a bit on the board.

Not so with Kallis and Ambrose as much for whatever reason.

Ashwin got voted in as the 4th best spinner ever, so no. Agree with Lara though.

Tho each set of 10 is meant to be a tier of Batsman

Infinity = Bradman

120 = Hobbs

98+ = BAB

94-98 = Smith, Lara

90-94 = Elite ATG

80-90 = Bonafide ATG + ATG careers

70-80 = Bonafide ATG + maybe not ATG careers

60-70 = ATVG like Kohli or Kanhai

50-60 = Crowe, Greenidge, Gower types

40-50 = Hayden, Cook etc

30-40 = Atherton, Duckett, maybe Chanderpaul etc

20-30 = Jadeja, Pope etc

10-20 = Ken Rutherford and Mike Brearley's of the world

0-10 = Tailenders who can bat a bit

0 = Shoaib Bashir
