The first variation from the order of openers on the Top 50 Batsmen list (apart from Trumper who was better as a MOB). Greenidge has jumped ahead of Sehwag and Haydn but as the trio occupied consecutive spots, this is understandable.

Not the first variation. Smith was below Simpson in the batsman list.

I should have said real variation (more than one spot) ..... How's that for an excuse?

The WSC Super Tests are now officially recognized, so Barry Richards actually played 9 Tests.
His WSC average was 79.14 against some pretty useful bowling attacks

Is it really finally added in test stats?I can’t find anything about WSC being added on test stats.For a second I was happy considering Viv,Lillee,Barry and others WSC stats are finally included.

WSC matches are not Tests and hopefully never will be.
