Not only Imran, but Mohammad Nazir and Iqbal Qasim also bowled brilliantly in that series.
Qasim, Qadir and Safraz. The two spinners were especially excellent in home conditions. Smith takes this but dont you dare try to diminish that Pakistan attack.
Cool i wasnt diminishing viv's achievement. Sarfraz was great supporting bowler so was qadir. I was just being in awe of smith's atg series as i saw it live
Viv 1976>>smith 2019
Nah, it's not even > let alone >>
It came vs wills snow and underwood. Much better then 19 bowlers smith faced
How is it much better than Broad + Woakes at home + Archer? I'd say there isn't a big gap. The latter's pitches were tougher as well
Andreson got injured after bowling 4 overs in first innings in first match. Archer is quality tho
Broad+Woakes at home as well on tougher pitches
Not tougher. Only lords was tough. Leeds and Manchester became better by day 5
So did in 76, overall the pitches were definitely tougher in 2019
Ok cool smith is better
You made a poll on this series comparison right iirc? Smith won that as well
Yeah but i think viv's one was better because it series where young and talented west indies showed first glimpse of GOAT team in making which would dominate world for two decades with viv proving himself the most talented and atg in making
I took '76 to mean the entire year, in which case Smith didn't face anything as tough as Viv did in Australia vs Tommo and Lillee with unlimited bouncers, 1976 bats, full boundaries and aggressive in your face bowlers (and spectators).
