Sehwag's average in both Tests and ODIs is only 1 run less than Gilchrist's, and his strike rate in ODIs is higher. You cannot just use figures like that to justify Gilchrist's superiority, because there is hardly anything in it.luckyeddie said:For me, Gilchrist is the man in that list who has made a significant contribution to test-match batting in a style more normally associated with one-day internationals. I would have included Klusener in that list as well, but most definitely not included Sehwag - yet.
Sure, he scored 309 this week, but he required more lives than a cat in order to get there. His average is good, but not THAT good. His strike rate is good, but not THAT good.
What was the question again?

Don't forget that Gilchrist has played 190 ODI's compared to Sehwag's 90 ODI's & Gilchrist has played 54 Test's compared to Sehwag's 21 Test's.a massive zebra said:Sehwag's average in both Tests and ODIs is only 1 run less than Gilchrist's, and his strike rate in ODIs is higher.
Yeah but more importaintly Shewags test strike rate is at least 10 runs slower.a massive zebra said:Sehwag's average in both Tests and ODIs is only 1 run less than Gilchrist's, and his strike rate in ODIs is higher.

Though thats just one series.Richard Rash said:Chris Cairns battted at a strike rate of 85 in the recent south afria series not bad for tests
OOOO great all of a sudden that makes him a test player. Cairns is crap he is always injured (SOFT ****) i say we get rid of him before its too late. Oram is better. Cairns replaced by Ross TaylorRichard Rash said:Chris Cairns battted at a strike rate of 85 in the recent south afria series not bad for tests

Richard Rash said:Get a f**king grip spofta u drip. Cairns is a legend. He plays as if its a one dayer wenever he bats. Taylor is yet to prove himself. He needs another season at least for him to be considered
