Greater Batsmen? Hammond smashed both so.

Both are arguably two of the more underrated ATGs

Sutcliffe would have been legendary right now. Just happened to come at a wrong time.
First in the shadow of Hobbs and then Hammond takes all the spotlight in the mid-career. And if that wasn’t already enough you have The best player of all time coming up.

pure class really, master on sticky, elite ATG against spin and combatted pace very well whenever he got the chance to, a very strong top 10 candidate, don't think he's far from Hammond at all.

I have him in the top 10,10th spot right now. Very great player of spin and on the tough track. He would probably have slight difficulty against pace but he could play them of course, great hook shot as well. I would guess his average of 60 would be lesser in today’s date. Definitely over 50 in any era. That would probably be enough to have him in majority’s top 10-12 ish considering the opener tax too.
