Get the E out.

But yes as others have said, if we’re talking tests, Pollock obviously. If we’re talking FC, Procter obviously.

Fun stat: Procter scored the same amount of centuries in 6 consecutive innings as Pollock did in his entire FC career.

Tbf to Shaun. 108 (109?) of his 186 FC games were test matches.

Whereas Proccie scored those 6 in a row for Rhodesia in Div 2 to help them get promoted.

Mike Procter




Shaun Pollock

Also remember Polly being stranded on 99 at least twice in his test career. He batted what 7 or 8 for the most part.

And we pick tests obviously.

 

[Coronis]

And we pick tests obviously.

I mean, its pointless to make a thread comparing the two in tests. There’s no comparison.

....... ODIs?

 

[kyear2]

Pollock the better Test Cricket while Proctor the better Cricketer.

Think what it is that Procter was a better cricketer, while Pollock had a better career.

Two distinct and separate things

 

[Coronis]

....... ODIs?

How many ODIs did Procter play?

 

[sayon basak]

How many ODIs did Procter play?

Exactly. Pollock is a better ODI player.

Shaun Pollock was a one day cricket legend.
He was almost impossible to score runs against.
And a very useful lower order batsman as well.

Richard Hadlee I can understand.
Only 3rd best? Who is the other one?

Ofcourse not Hadlee. They are Chris Harris and Daniel Vettori

They are Chris Harris and Daniel Vettori

I hope this isn’t a joke.
