    ***Official***Match #39- Australia vs Afghanistan - November 7th - Wankhede, Mumbai (D/N)

    A word too for Dreamy Pat. Did exactly what he needed to do to help us over the line. A great supporting knock.

    Glenn Maxwell. Take a ****ing bow. Genuinely one of the greatest performances of all time.

    Find a better bowler peak (min 33 Tests) than this (protip, you can't)

    Yeah, fair enough - I had thought it was comparing over specifically 33 match periods but I misunderstood. Thanks.

    Also, why do a lot of the entries on that list go above 33 matches, sometimes well above? That doesn't make for an even comparison.

    Even Lindwall by then wasn't anywhere near the force he had been - Davo's great partnership was with Benaud, a kind of forerunner to McWarne.

    Cook in 10/11 vs Vaughan in 02/03

    I can't get past the inability to divide by ten here.

    Keith Miller vs Glenn McGrath

    For so long Jadeja has been The Answer. Miller's inclusion in a new poll every day now surely makes him The Question.

    Keith Miller vs Brian Lara

    In the interests of friendly discussion and getting our dynamic back on track, I have absolutely no problem at all with this opinion. I don't think the idea of rating Lara or Viv ahead of Miller is in any way outlandish, and is a perfectly defensible position to hold. Despite my well known...

    Making All-time Test Batting Averages Fully Comparable

    With regards dead runs, I have realised from the footnotes now that not every innings of above 150 is considered dead runs, but that there is an assessment made on match and opposition context - this at least makes more sense! I still don't agree with the concept as this is again quite an...

    Making All-time Test Batting Averages Fully Comparable

    LOL, check out this guy - he doesn't half go on and on. What a ****.

    Making All-time Test Batting Averages Fully Comparable

    Ok, I’ve had a re-read of this so as to try to get to grips with it. I’m specifically avoiding pithy one-liner responses because it’s clear that a lot of effort has gone into this analysis and I respect anyone who puts in the hard yards to develop something like this, and it deserves a proper...

    Post War Test Anonymous Listing Comparison thread

    @shortpitched713 I am trying to find some time to get these lists to you, as I think these exercises are always more meaningful the more responses you get. A couple of questions: The bowlers is an "all bowlers" list, right, not just quicks? Are there any criteria for eligibility you have...

    Michael Holding vs Alan Davidson

    I assumed he was excluded, the same way we exclude Bradman to keep things fair and even.

    Keith Miller vs Brian Lara

    Man, and I thought I was obsessed with Keith Miller.

    Sunil Gavaskar vs Steve Smith

    Wait, what? Wait, what? I knew that Hammond enjoyed the company of the ladies to a level detrimental to his health, but had not heard anything about addictions for any of those three. Is this common knowledge that has somehow passed me by?
