Bull*** against Lanka he had only 4 poor games, and not 6, had it been 6 poor games out of 7 then his average would have been in 50's against them rather than 25
You can have a poor game and your average can still improve.

10-55-2 - poor
7-30-1 - not good
10-65-2 - abysmal
7-29-1 - OK in itself, but poor in the context of the previous 3 games
6.2-23-3 - good
7.4-40-2 - poor
4-33-0 - abysmal

And yet in the 6th game, despite a poor performance, the average still improved due to dismissing a couple of tailenders...

One of those Great performances include 2 wkts in each innings... Indeed an incredible performance especially judging by the high standard that Warne had set for himself.
Good match-figures in all cases - simple as. If you take 2-40 that's still a good performance - number of wickets are not the important thing, as I said earlier in the Qadir instance - wickets-for-runs is what matters.

So 7-1-30-1 is not good and 7-1-29-1 is OK?.It's the difference between one run...8-)

They're both perfectly decent in themselves, but following-up what they did they're both poor.

Taking wickets is no good if you're going for enough runs to subjegate it. Qadir, in all examples, did.
Alot of ppl have different opnion about it. Qadir is regarded as a world class spinner and it was none other than Warne who has been a great admirer of Qadir.

Going for 4 runs an over on Subcontinental wkts which are meant for batsmen is hardly poor.Expecting a bowler to give 3 runs per over on roads is expecting for moon

Ridiculous!!It doesn't mater what you say, what matters is wickets. Taking 2 wkts in an innings is a failure by Warne's high standard.Warne has repeatidly mentioned his failures against India, not once did he mentioned conceding fewer runs as any success
