International Vice-Captain
If we just look at their 1970s record, it is Botham followed by a million daylights then Kapil clear daylight and then Imran and Hadlee.
Botham Batting 36.82 Bowling 19.27
Kapil Batting 31.89 Bowling 27.73
Imran Batting 22.48 Bowling 31.88
Hadlee Batting 20.09 Bowling 30.14
I don't think any one in their fair mind would have called Imran and Hadlee allrounders till the beginning of 1980s. It is incredible how they turned around that kind of a poor start.
Kapil's record barely changed in 1980s. A consistent ATG if ever there was one without much crest and trough.
Botham's decline in his second half is well documented and discussed and truly messed his overall stats.
