I wonder how often Hadlee would have won it if they did that sort of thing in his day.

Bit odd how England didn't select Stone for this match. Sure, in the overall context of the game it probably wouldn't have mattered, but he bowled really really well in the 2nd test and definitely deserved selection here.
Typifies England's muddled thinking to this series tbh. Overthinking certain selections

shardul is a good bet for English conditions imo, we could do a lot worse than him especially since Bhuvi seems to be a non-entity nowadays.

No. This was also a close series and England competed well.

It would have mattered. Both Stokes and Anderson looked great with the ball, so did Siraj. Another seamer would have been very useful for England. Woakes(if he was available) and Anderson in this game would have been interesting.

I don't know how this could be worked out, but this has to be done. Imagine the WTC final being a draw or something? It'll look stupid.

They will look at the stats and decide.

Thank you. Maybe it just slipped through my radar, but I genuinely don't remember MOTS awards in the late 1970s and early 1980s, hence my comment. It would be interesting to know in which series Hadlee won that award.All-round records | Test matches | Cricinfo Statsguru | ESPNcricinfo.com

Yeah I think those 8 hadlee ones might be from fewer series than the others.

Whatever it takes!!!
To be fair, you did. The issue for England has been that every time you have done something, it has been a great who has done something great. Crawley's 50 aside and maybe Leach's consistency and Bess in the first innings in Chennai, but other gains have been limited. Lawrence seemed good today, but is he really the one you see batting at 3? You just seem to have a bunch of #4-#9s running around, and yet without a good top 3, you are always prone to pretty bad losses.

So you are not Gavaskar. You were Bewda all along.
