Gavaskar/Kapil or Boycott/Botham

[Johan]

@Coronis glazing Botham is something I never understood...... He sounds exactly like the player you like to downgrade really.

Coronis hates half english players and loves half English players, there's no other way

Yeah, but Botham looks like a prime example of a player he hates.

the way he treats Glenn Turner and Freddy, I expect him to take Sunny one day and rip him apart, so be ready.

Nah Sunny he rates alongside the English duo, behind Hobbs, which is completely fine IMO

He'll turn heel

Peak Miller was averaging like 42 with the bat and 21 with the ball

Can't really see a case for Sunny getting the Turner treatment really.

You gotta safeguard the 1971 and 1979 WI serieses with your life boy

Even if he did, what's the point? He also hates Trumper.

Huh? When have I ever said a bad word about Glenn Turner? Or Flintoff?

Quit lying, also, Freddy means Fiery Fred.

I think 71 is safe given the significance and the difference in quality of the teams and all. I don't rate runs much which comes against weak teams, mostly runs except which your team is fine. 71 WI is probably the hardest opposite of that. Ofcourse weak bowling takes it down a notch, but damn, is it still really Great.
79 WI bowling is downgraded just because it wasn't full team (which ofcourse, is the best ever). Sylvester Clarke, Vanburn Holder and a young Malcolm Marshall who actually blasted everyone in FC that season; is pretty Good overall. Definitely not really a weak attack

Only ever heard him referenced as Fred or Fiery Fred.

Literally so confused about Glenn Turner….

Sylvester Clarke was very good

It's because you don't like Bedser and Larwood much.....

Doubt I’ve ever said a negative thing about Gooch either, but I don’t have wet dreams about him like you.

This would be like @Burgey accusing me of hating Allan Border.
