In between his matchwinning 200 and more recent 100 against Bangladesh - both actual good innings FWIW - he's averaged 23 and passed 50 twice.

Meaningless and stupid cricket statistics

I alluded to this in one of the Australia-India threads last night. In cricket there are certain figures that people love to use to prove how good or bad a player is that, if you think about it, don't really prove or tell you anything. My least favourite is the old 'player x only averages y if...

Congrats to WI for pushing the 1st test in many ages into the 5th day. All thanks to Captain KB and a great find in young Chanderpaul. Time for Mayers to come good on his talk after Bangladesh where he said he wanted to be known as a test batsman.

I don't think he's technically equipped to bat well against a fresh Starc, Hazelwood and Cummins tbh.

Separately, it's lol worthy that we are constantly stuck with Chase and Brooks, hanging around like bad smells.

For the love of God try Thomas in the next test. I doubt he's good enough but he's earned a go at least, especially if the alternative is Brooks.
