What period of time is qualified as the 2020's? Crazy to think there's been 63 tests in just under 2 years and yet people claim test is dead.
I'd assume January 1 2020 to the present day...
Rating of bowling attack.
For sure.
Yeah, it seems strange thinking back but a lot of countries have actually continued pretty full Test schedules even during the pandemic (and some absolutely haven't). For reference, Tests played by each country in the past two years since Jan 1, 2020:
11.64
Drawn match.
13.60
14.06
The famous Kingston knock came in at 14.20.
The majority of triple centuries come in matches where either the team posts a huge score, batting conditions are benign, or the team has a large first innings lead.
Can you do for series performances,4 matches and over.ESPN had smith in 2019 ashes as the best series performance by any batsman ever.It is in top 5, but no.1 was bit far imo.
I mean has there really been a better series performance? Maybe it's nostalgia since I actually saw it live but there's just so many small occurrences that make it AMAZING.
Was really incredible made 6 scores of 80 or over in 7 times.Should have ended with 5 centuries in 7 innings tbh.
Yeah true tbh. I take it as a win because we retained the ashes for the first time in 20 years but realistically it was a series we should have and would have won if we didn't crumple like a deck of cards under any small amount of pressure.
