Hey @Days of Grace - a thought that occurred to me whilst reading the bowler thread and career length’s effect on the ratings, just for curiousity’s sake, is it possible to see what the list might look like without career factoring in?

Like obviously we do all use career lengths in our ratings and as should this system but am curious as to who had the highest actual overall quality careers, ignoring length.
