Interesting Bradman also holds the record for the fewest runs vs a single opponent.
He didn't score any runs against Bangladesh.

Yeah Cosgrove is infinitely better. So is Chris Martin.

This not a meaningless statistic.

Well it mainly has to do with how much they played that specific opponent, especially since I only mentioned runs and not averages.

You need to be a great batsman with a pretty long career to enter such lists, and if you lack those credentials than it might actually be illustrative of the batsman raising their game against that opponent or being comfortable against that kind of bowling/conditions etc.
It's probably less useful than average with a match cut-off but it's not meaningless per se.

Well maybe he thought Bradman was still capable of scoring at least 1 run against Bangladesh. :P

i think that GAS was underrating the big grove a bit tbh, because 74/0 is given as undefined iirc (nerds correct me if i'm wrong), meaning even an infinite number of bradmans pales before the grove
