I think they are both tier two.

iirc dipping into the whole perception and peer rating pool here Lindwall was always (correctly imo) considered better than Trueman.
I also find this “prototype of a modern fast bowler” bs meaningless when rating players.

His away record can really be considered mediocre. It's not a checklist thing, he bowled in very favorable home pitches for 70% of his matches, bullied a weak NZ away for some and averages 30 against WI and Australia in 16 matches.

Swore I replied to this, but in any event.
Is it analysis by list or is it
1. Acknowledgement that he didn't perform at an ATG level away from home
Or
2. That he was often not even selected when available during his career.
Think they both kind of matter.

Think "where they will finish" is working out pretty finely. Just Rabada and Pollock for me and a Great tour of India/Pakistan will switch things up

Yeah the only difference is I now rate Pollock over Walsh but the rest remains.
