One or two hundreds against attacks that contain great bowlers prove **** all imo. Unless they are genuinely excellent innings in the match context. Lots of mediocre batsmen have had good days against great bowlers. Mathew Sinclair has a 150 vs Donald and Pollock ffs.

If you want to compare players go with the more reliable arguments like sehwag's poor overseas record or inzi's striking difference between 90s and 2000s averages. Not using solitary innings without context as some kind of gotcha .
So the claim was that Sehwag would score a hundred against Marshall's WI, I rebutted, and then the counterargument was that Inzi couldnt and then I rebutted. I agree overall record is more important.

Whatever it takes!!!
Its amazing coz when someone responds to my every post, I think it is I who is living rent-free in their brain.


Or maybe it is the kind of logic the passion wont let you see.

No the initial claim was you saying Sehwag's chances of getting a hundred against Marshall in WI would be nil. Which is nonsensical. The following batsmen managed that immense feat of scoring a hundred against Marshall in WI:

Wayne Phillips
Jeff Crowe
Sanjay Manjrekar
Ravi Shastri (twice)

Yeah, I think Sehwag might've managed it just fine with a few chances.

Daily reminder that Jeff Crowe > Sehwag.

West Indian bowling attack of 80s and 90s was tailormade for Sehwag. Playing against pace was his strength. Just look how he used to murder Shoaib and Lee.

Marshall and co. as in the entire WI quartet.

And yeah I think if I say nil you could understand I don't mean theoretically impossible I mean very unlikely given his hundred ratio in other pace friendly conditions. But let's let this topic rest pls.

I am triggered by you losing your head and acting like a child. This was a decent enough thread before you and Sunilz started with the lolololol Subshakerz posting. It's annoying to see everywhere even though it's pleasing when he ignores the tantrums.
Sehwag has no chance against Marshall is certainly a decent thread.
Then pointing Inzamam actual average against McGrath in 04/05 is also decent. Don’t get triggered when we reply to him in his posting style.

How about Inzi against McGrath in 99?

This is the point. You're not giving it back, you're overcorrecting for an imagined offence and bringing every thread into the pits. I was triggered more by Sunilz's rancid bait than anything else. But c'mon.
Nuclear race baiting Sunilz is almost always cancer, especially in these threads. Waaah someone said my guy wouldn't do well in an ATG scenario on a cricket forum I'll show him.

You could just point out the flaw in his logic.. by pointing out the flaw in his logic. You guys are just lightweights with a victim complex; this isn't even a tenth as out there as Steyn sucking in England.

Yeah he will keep making outrageous post and we will keep correcting him as if he is a school boy and we are his school teachers . Maybe you can ask your fellow Pakistani to stop making outrageous post about different cricketers.
