Kane Williamson vs Everton Weekes

[Johan]

monsters at home, but a bit middling away from home.

 

[DrWolverine]

Everton Weeks feasted on the minnows(Ind, Pak & NZ). Out of his 15 centuries, he scored 11 in 21 matches against them.

Weeks:
vs Aus : 40
vs Eng : 45
in Aus : 24
in Eng : 33

 

[Johan]

funnily, Kane gets quite a bit of **** for his home/away record but some players with similar records are considered ATG.

 

[Coronis]

Something something pretty batsman, something something strike rate. Something something wasn’t even the best of the W’s.

Walcott has the best resume because of his series v Australia

Yeah I’ve always rated Walcott highest of the 3.

Williamson
vs Aus : 37

vs SA : 50
vs Pak : 53
vs SL : 59

I do not rate Kane that highly but he played against a higher level of competition. I guess you could say that for most players post-1970s.

Don't think most would consider Weekes an ATG

Depends where people’s ATG cut off is. I know the poll this year had him at #22. I’ve usually seen him ranked somewhere in the 20-25 range in most lists in the past, depends how many ATGs people have.

Think the Ws tend to be awarded that status

Not by me, so

 

[h_hurricane]

Williamson for his 30 wickets, 19 of which came away from home.

Average of 58 is probably ATG in Weekes’s era

if they both were as good as their numbers suggest they'd be second to Bradman in conversation
