    Peter May vs Clement Hill

    Pitches in England in the 1950s were generally bowling-friendly. But Yeah, that’s because Trueman and co. were elite with the ball in that era in England, like I mentioned earlier. They were kinda like the Ashwin and Jadeja duo at home, literally unplayable...

    Peter May vs Clement Hill

    Batting average is that low mainly because of England's bowling, to be honest. Bowling stats of other teams against England when Peter May was in the side.👇...

    De Villiers vs Kallis (against pace)

    So AB was better against pace, better against spin, and had better concentration too? That basically covers everything a Test batter needs, right? And yet somehow Kallis ended up as the better Test batter. Fascinating stuff. I must be missing some secret category where Kallis was scoring all...

    Dravid's 2011 England tour vs Sanga's 2006 New Zealand tour

    I literally voted for Sanga’s series and said his performance was better, so I’m not sure what point you're trying to make.

    Dravid's 2011 England tour vs Sanga's 2006 New Zealand tour

    Yeah, like I said earlier, the pitches in Sanga’s 2006 New Zealand series were really tough to bat on.

    Not only Imran, but Mohammad Nazir and Iqbal Qasim also bowled brilliantly in that series.

    Dravid's 2011 England tour vs Sanga's 2006 New Zealand tour

    Silva only scored in the 2nd Test. He had two ducks in the 1st. Anyway, an average batsman like Silva could have a great match, but that doesn’t take away from Sangakkara’s great performance in that series. Sanga was basically like Dravid, as he had to open since he often came in after the 2nd...

    All-Time World XIs: Discussion Thread

    Look, Sanga is an ATG Test batter, but as a wicketkeeper-batter, he’s on a similar level to Walcott. Walcott batted in the middle order, which suits this XI better, and Sanga’s record outside No. 3 isn’t that great. Their keeping isn’t miles apart either because Walcott kept to Ramadhin and...

    All-Time World XIs: Discussion Thread

    I'm leaning towards Walcott here. Both Sanga and Walcott saw a significant drop in their batting averages when keeping compared to their overall numbers. But Walcott batted in the middle order, so he fits this playing XI better. Sanga’s record outside of no. 3 isn’t convincing. Honestly, I’d...

    4th Test (Old Trafford, Manchester) - 23rd to 27th of July

    This is the only the 3rd instance where 3 Indian batsman have scored 400+ runs in a test series away from home: Shubman-Rahul-Pant-- 2025 vs Eng Dravid-Laxman-Sehwag--2003/04 vs Aus Gavaskar-Amarnath-Viswanath--1977 vs Aus
