    Joel Garner vs Michael Holding

    If Garner (who you massively under-rate) averages 30 for 41 wickets, he will end up with 300 @ 22. Similarly if Bumrah averages 30 for 81 wickets, he will end up with 300 @ 22. May be it is just that those are ATG and Holding isn't.

    Kapil/Jadeja vs Botham/Flintoff

    You have brought up Jadeja's lack of sample size in SA, but haven't brought up Botham's sample size in Pakistan, the hardest country to tour for bowlers. You have also habitually brought up Ambrose's record in one series in 97 there. Botham played a solitary test in Pakistan in 1984 and...

    Better Batsman : Jadeja vs Imran

    Your opinion on Jadeja or any other active cricketer doesn't need to be unidirectional. Didn't you downgrade Kohli recently(for right reasons) after arguing for ages that Kohli > Dravid. You rate someone on what they have done, if the sample size is comparable, not on what is unknown. If Jadeja...

    Better Batsman : Jadeja vs Imran

    Oh, I never said they are not close. In an earlier post I said that Jadeja went ahead of Imran in the last series. Before this, it was ridiculously close imo. I don't have a problem with bringing up points with an advantage to Imran to Jadeja in batting. Very fair if someone brings up valid...

    Better Batsman : Jadeja vs Imran

    The full context is that the two matches from Imran were played on very flat tracks with a draw result in both. In fact, from the beginning of his batting peak from early 1987 until end of his career, Imran played 28 matches out of which 20 were no results. He averaged 83 in the matches that...

    Better Batsman : Jadeja vs Imran

    Away from home (excluding minnows but including WI), Jadeja averages 38 and Imran 35. Imran's stats are a little boosted by his home record(not massively though).

    Better Batsman : Jadeja vs Imran

    Jadeja's great series with the bat recently clearly takes him over Imran imo. Was close before this series. Jadeja's away average is a good 4-5 runs higher than Imran. Way more consistent too overseas (a fifty plus score every 4 innings as against every 6 innings by Imran).

    Kapil/Jadeja vs Botham/Flintoff

    You didn't say that which is the whole point. You said whatever suited your narrative. Ignoring the rest of your post as it deserves.

    Kapil/Jadeja vs Botham/Flintoff

    And him averaging 7 runs worse with the bat overseas than home in such an easier era for batting shouldn't be swept aside under the carpet either.

    In the mean time, Prasidh quietly improves his test economy rate to 4.72.

    5th Test (The Oval) - 31st July to 4th August

    Siraj bowls like a SP when Bumrah is absent and like a DSP when he is around. Fields like a constable in every situation. WAG.
