    Mitchell Starc vs Jasprit Bumrah in limited overs

    Bumrah is in the top 3 of the best all round bowlers I've seen in a while ie atg (more games probably needed) in both tests and ODIs.

    Kallis Vs Flintoff

    Comparing Kallis to Flintoff is insulting to Kallis.

    Marshall vs Imran (as bowlers)

    Both atg afaic.

    Gordon Greenidge vs Clive Lloyd

    Tough question indeed. Either answer is fine imo.

    Which type of players are hardest to find ?

    Knott is an atg keeper but mostly for his keeping skills.

    Which type of players are hardest to find ?

    I couldn't think of any other atg wk/batsmen.

    Which type of players are hardest to find ?

    Let's try atg tier 1: Atg openers: Hobbs, Sutcliffe, Hutton, Sunil Spinners: Warne, Murali, O'Reilly, Wk/batsmen: Gilchrist, Ames, Flower(?)

    Which current players are/will be ATGs?

    Yeah the idea of a tiers amongst greats/atgs makes sense to me.👍🏽

    Which type of players are hardest to find ?

    Funny I was thinking of something similar recently. But in the history of tests, we only have 5 openers who average 50+. And all time we only have a handful of openers who can be classified as atg. Similar for spinners and similar for wk/batsmen. Great pole!!

    Which current players are/will be ATGs?

    What he fails to realise is India are going through now, what Wi did in the 60s and 80s ie they are consistently producing class players and class teams. In the near and distant future, India may well add to their atg stocks. Bumrah is pretty much there save for a few more tests, Ashwin is...

    Which current players are/will be ATGs?

    Trust me, you don't know as much about WI as I do. Sobers played in 60s WI when Wi first ascended to the top of the cricketing ranks. Viv, Ambrose, and Lara, played when WI were great, then declined. Headley was the first great player Wi ever produced and his greatness is indisputable. Lloyd...

    Which current players are/will be ATGs?

    Because in the near future, India may very well add to their atg stocks eg Bumrah as I already stated. My definition is my definition, if you don't like it feel free to come up with your own. As for comparing WI and India's records, it's only recently that India has surpassed WI, up 'til...

    Which current players are/will be ATGs?

    I look at the overall. Because for example, I could do the same for a player like Walsh but how fair would that be to others who maintained they're excellence throughout their career. And I'm a huge Walsh fan.

    Which current players are/will be ATGs?

    Allan Donald is a definite for South Africa's XI and doesn't look out of place in an ATG XI. Coincidentally, 3 of the bowlers you listed are also atg imo: Ambrose, Glenn and Wasim. And respectfully, nobody ranks Shaun Pollock over Donald as a bowler. From a statistical pov, when I look at...
