Warne had meh oppositions against spinners in finals. The only time hr got a decent opposition he was carted around.Their record in WC are among the best. Warne performed better in WC than Murali or Saqlain

Pakistan was bad opposition in 99 finals ? Since when ?Warne had meh oppositions against spinners in finals. The only time hr got a decent opposition he was carted around.
This is classic facts and logic Ikkiposting.Not at all. Imran is not good enough to be a #7 for any ATG side. Its really that simple.
Meh people back up their ill advised hills all the time. He sticks up for what he believes in. Anything he says is immediately met with hostile exaggerations which ruins threads more than anything else.from what I’ve seen in my short time here the response to him is disproportionate due to his history of banking it up and repeating the same tactic again and again. credit where it’s due, it does work in riling the same people up
Pakistan since mid 80s were always meh againist quality spin.Pakistan was bad opposition in 99 finals ? Since when ?
Hmmm.. repeating the same point without conceding the facts showing otherwise seems to trigger you?This is classic facts and logic Ikkiposting.
You can’t have both McGrath and Pollock in an ATG team . Both are similar bowler.Anyway, the most wrong opinion in this thread is people leaving out McGrath.
no uHmmm.. repeating the same point without conceding the facts showing otherwise seems to trigger you?
Sure but McGrath is the WC GOAT which should him an auto pick imo. Pollock's batting won't matter if he's playing in McGrath's spot and removing McGrath to adjust Pollock at 7 seems weird and somewhat light on batting.You can’t have both McGrath and Pollock in an ATG team . Both are similar bowler.
Pakistani batsman manhandled Kumble and Harbhajan in 05 and 06 Test series too . Pakistan batsman may not be elite players of spin but they aren’t as bad as you think them to be .Pakistan since mid 80s were always meh againist quality spin.
And oh, india sisn't have a quality spinner from 80 - 91 period till Kumble arrived. Hence the manhandling by Pakistani batsmen.
I watched it live at the ground. I think people were actually disappointed when Ganguly took that good catch as most folks realized game was up but at least we could have seen a 200 in ODIs for the first time.Every time I think of Pakistan's batting against Indian spinners, Anwar's manhandling of Kumble during his 194 comes to the mind. Dreadful nightmare.
I'm pretty sure @Migara has.But who is comparing Vaas with Waqar ?
These threads will be a lot cooler if everyone starts treating Subshakerz as a dumb poster(which is unarguable) than a biased one.
There is a thread:Ranking systems are good. The ICC one sucks.
In fairness, we haven't had as many people really put the time into making good alternate systems for ODIs in the way we have for Tests.
@ankitj has a career list (does it have a thread? make a thread!) - but nothing to really directly compete with the rolling peaks/current ratings thing the ICC thing has done. I've done stuff for Tests but not ODIs yet.
You want to be discussed ?I dream of a day when someone will discuss me over 4 pages on CW like they did subshakerz.
PS. my real dreams must be dead.
Some results are quite weird. Ranking Imran as a bat above Buttler and Gayle
Don't let a single memory warp the facts. Kumble averages 24.3 against PakistanEvery time I think of Pakistan's batting against Indian spinners, Anwar's manhandling of Kumble during his 194 comes to the mind. Dreadful nightmare.
Woah that's actually kinda amazingAnd every 4th post should be Ponting’s 42 overseas average after removing WI of 00 .
