On my iPhone mate.is there a cricketweb cc program for blackberry? how do u read the forum on the move? I promise to remove this post once I get an answer. dont usually go anywhere other than cc. so asking the question right here.
if there is a way we could figure out how many times windies declared with lara in team or how many matches they won or saved on the last day then we can understand a little bit more of this. my immediate guess is they were probably not often in such positions of strength to enable lara to stay not out.I don't think the team-strength inhibited him since during the period where WIndies were the best or thereabouts he still didn't have many not-outs. It really is a peculiar stat; it's a glaring one, in a way.
Alright declarations with Lara in the team:if there is a way we could figure out how many times windies declared with lara in team or how many matches they won or saved on the last day then we can understand a little bit more of this. my immediate guess is they were probably not often in such positions of strength to enable lara to stay not out.
Bit like Tendulkar boosts his average in Australia by scoring big not outs in draws.And we wonder why the atmosphere in CC is like this?
Lara scored his runs in draws. Sehwag scored his runs on flat decks against mediocre bowling... Don't facts have a place in CC or understanding cricket such a big deal now???
I will always rate Lara ahead of Tendulkar. Both are absolute geniuses though. Would make my all time XI, both of them.
According to me, Tendulkar will be remembered as the best batsman after Bradman given the legacy he will leave once his career is over, whenever it is over.Sachin could average 70 for three more years and you'll always rate Lara better than him?
Can only truly judge when both careers are over. It's not as if Sachin's career stopped when Lara retired. You compare career vs. career.
At the end of Sachin's career one can say Lara was the better player. You may think that at this point in time Lara is. But saying "I'll never rate" just points out that its an unchangeable opinion based on bias.
