Ravichandran Ashwin vs Bob Willis

[Coronis]

It's a small difference but it becomes relevant when the difference between his home and away averages is literally 25.

I mean its just, if you talk about someone having a disproportionate amount of home games I’d think more like, Ashwin himself.

Ah ofc. Makes sense in a comparison with Willis.

See: what I commented on

 

[DrWolverine]

That's what you say to the greatest match winner you guys had for over a decade??

I am being just honest

 

[DrWolverine]

kinda reminds me of someone not having a ton in England or India after 29 attempts, as I said, the David Warner of Bowling.

Just checked
29 Tests in England/India
1394 runs @ 24 with zero centuries

 

[kyear2]

sure, Ashwin's argument is his home work being next level regardless of pitch difference, Willis's is him being excellent at home and much more of a well rounded all condition bowler. not ridiculous to vote either here.

This.

 

[subshakerz]

Averaged 28 in England

Oh God pls stop it with this, he was taking 2 wickets a game. His returns in England are mediocre.

 

[kyear2]

These people just don't understand that a player plays more than half of his matches at home, So getting rid of home performance is just wrong.

No one is getting rid of anything.

But his home conditions are tailored to the degree of few in history and his away is lacking or sub par for the most part.

1.6 WPI

He was a support bowler overall there.

And????

 

[kyear2]

Freddie is off limits, like Sunny

What level of troubling alliance is really going on here?

 

[subshakerz]

And????

And pointing to his average is misleading since he doesn't have a wicket haul to suggest match impact.

So..... The opposite of his record in Australia??

 

[kyear2]

Yeah, but Warner's also includes a good deal matches against minnowish sides as well somehow even flatter home tracks. Warner is not him. At home, Ashwin is comparable to Smith not Warner.

Oh wow.

And away?

Willis outside ENG and NZ (the only 2 countries he was good)
42 matches 121 wkts (WPM=2.88)
Ashwin outside Asia:
32 matches 118 wkts (WPM=3.69)

Not to mention that Willis in NZ, ENG vs Ashwin in SC is a mismatch in favour of Ashwin

 

[Thala_0710]

What about Willis' negligible match impact outside ENG and NZ?
