    Which overseas bowler is better in these countries?

    Other spinners' bowling average in Murali's games in England-43.65 Other spinners' bowling average in Warne's games in England – 41.08 The 1993 Ashes series you're talking about (Warne faced better batters, blah, blah, blah). Even average spinner like Tim May took 21 wickets in that series, by...

    Should India bring back Pujara?

    Bringing back Pujara into the Test team at this point in time doesn't make sense at all. Knowing that India didn't make it into the WTC final, bringing back old guys like Pujara is just a waste of time, really. India should groom youngsters for the future and should give them a fair run to get...

    Which overseas bowler is better in these countries?

    In England, Murali was just extraordinary with the ball. In England, Murali essentially did a one-man show with the ball. In England, even Vaas failed to deliver with the ball. There was practically no bowling support at all for Murali in England. Just look at this👇👌...

    Extra Team Trades

    I've never said they had a strong batting line-up like Aussies 1990s. But also their batting wasn't that bad, like Kiwis in the 1990s. Statistically, they were the 3rd best batting team in the 1990s. Wessels in the early 90s and Kallis in the late 90s were also good with the bat. If your...

    Extra Team Trades

    Yeah. I agree it's close between them. But I'm going with Shaun here because he was exceptional in the 1990s. He averaged 20 with the ball, and his WPM was 4.23 in the 1990s (with a good to great record everywhere he toured). Batting-wise, the South African team wasn't that bad 1990s. They were...

    Top 50 Greatest test batters

    I think he rates Grace very highly, just like us. In this video, he discussed Grace and the reasons he gave him that ranking on his list. When he was making this list, I believe he had given players' test careers more weight than their FC careers. Watch this video from 54.44 to 55.40.

    Top 50 Greatest test batters

    I think this list is solid overall. However, I must admit that I disagree with Jayawardene being ranked higher than Crowe.

    Jacques Kallis vs Imran Khan

    I also agree with the majority of his cricketing opinions, with the exception of the fact that he selected Flower over Gilly as a wicketkeeper batter.

    Jacques Kallis vs Imran Khan

    IIRC, he also said in another podcast that Kallis is pretty much underrated as a Test batter because he had to bat in tougher home conditions.

    Jacques Kallis vs Imran Khan

    IIRC, in one of his earlier podcasts (I can't remember in exactly which one, actually), he said that he doesn't rate Imran's batting too much and his batting stats are inflated by not outs. He said that Imran's batting wasn't that impactful & Imran has scored 6 test centuries, and only 1 of them...
