    Introduction to my Moderators

    Say hello!

    What we learned from the 5th Test

    These are all reasonable and well thought out points on why we should be reticent on allowing subs. However, it gives an opportunity for an additional ad break, so it WILL happen, whether we like it or not.

    Cricket stuff that doesn't deserve its own thread

    Rank the pace bowling pairs

    We should do a statistical comparison of these pairs at their peak. Also wonder how good Garner Marshall or Marshall Ambrose ever were at their peak.

    Has Jadeja ever lost a poll?

    Are india most unluckiest team when it comes to winning toss?

    They've tried. It's taken 15 flips and still no luck for India. :laugh:

    Is Javed Miandad an ATG test batsman?

    I stand corrected on Gavaskar then. I leave it as an exercise for the reader to find other batsmen with high home/away lbw disparities. :laugh:

    Cricket stuff that doesn't deserve its own thread

    Is Mushfiqur Rahim the last cricketing holdout of the mid 2000s heyday of CW? I think it might be the case. He really is the LeBron James of cricket. Also, is anyone really believing he is only 38 years old?

    Is Javed Miandad an ATG test batsman?

    Miandad's record in this respect seems anecdotally special, but I don't think many other players of the home umpires Era would be much different. I think I read of Gavaskar as well as having some similar sort of disparity. I think it was just probably shitty umpiring all around in those days...

    Is Javed Miandad an ATG test batsman?

    What I'm saying is that there are other Asian (also some SENA) bats who have a home/away disparity that is worse. Jayawardene, Warner, Sehwag, just off the top of my head. Even Root has a meaningful (though not quite as big) Home/Away disparity, in spite of England being generally a lower run...

    50s/60s vs 90s/2000s

    90s-2000s would win, and it would be belts to asses. In my opinion, of course.

    Better All Rounder Pair

    Answer yet again is Jadeja, for his fielding.

    Is Javed Miandad an ATG test batsman?

    Fair enough for hating him, for his post career. Problem is, he just performed too good during his career to keep him out of ATG ranks, and his Home/Away disparity isn't the biggest around to just discredit that performance in one stroke like that.

    In terms of match impact, is Botham better than Tendulkar and McGrath?

    Tricky wording strikes again.

    What we learned from the 5th Test

    Calling one of this match's match winners a zero, is wild.
