What you are saying is that Jayawardene was a better ODI cricketer than Bevan because he has a century in WC SF as well as Final .

Bevan is ****ing overrated. Jaya was a clutch player.

ODI ATXI based on WC MoS/Final MoM

Adam Gilchrist (2007 Final)
Sachin Tendulkar (2003 MoS)
Ricky Ponting (2003 Final)
Viv Richards (1979 Final)
Dhoni( 2011 Final)
Klusener (1999 MoS)
Ben Stokes (2019 Final)
Warne ( 99 Final)
Akram (92 Final)
Garner (79 Final)
McGrath (2007 MoS)

Replace Ponting for Smith.

 

[Socerer 01]

can't decide which is funnier, Burgey's beef with Pollock and ABD or Asshole's beef with McGrath and Bevan

 

[StephenZA]

Are there any Aussie batsmen with a WC record as good as de Villiers'? His average of 80 with a SR over 100 in WC knock outs doesn't seem to scream 'choker' either.

Yes but he's never won a WC so it does not count... and/or he is not an Aussie

Replace Ponting for Smith.

Statsguru tips for you:
Instead of clicking on so many series , just select World cup from Trophy ( 2nd last option, attached image)

The former is background noise now. Deep into the realm of self parody. The latter, however, is as novel as it is ludicrous. Calling McGrath useless and downgrading him because of his WC record (that too relative to Pollock...) is brainworms on a totally unprecedented level. It is actually somewhat morbidly fascinating.

The Garner for better batting is genuinely peak CW #content tbh ?

Legendary ratio of confidence to delusion in that post. Reminded me of Mr Miyagi.

Would have this 2nd XI:

Gilchrist (w)
Sehwag
Ponting
Symonds (7)
Buttler
Yuvraj (5)
Klusener (6)
Kapil (3)
Starc (1)
Warne (4)
Waqar (2)

Dilshan / Sharma > Shewag as opener.

Sharma 7409 @ 56.6 @ 92.5
Dilshan 7367 @ 46.1 @ 89.1
Shewag 7518 @ 36.5 @ 104

 

[Migara]

Saqlain was easily better.

No.

Even Saqlain don't believe that.

Dilshan / Sharma > Shewag as opener.

Sharma 7409 @ 56.6 @ 92.5
Dilshan 7367 @ 46.1 @ 89.1
Shewag 7518 @ 36.5 @ 104

Rohit’s a hack.

Gives me JayJay vibes in the way an idea'll seem to strike him for the very first time, and he then immediately triples down on it moving forwards as established dogma rather than something he had no opinion on the day before.

Sharma 7409 @ 56.6 @ 92.5
Dilshan 7367 @ 46.1 @ 89.1
Shewag 7518 @ 36.5 @ 104

It's not that they aren't better by some metric. It's that I want the Gilchrist - Sehwag approach. Jayasuriya the only one who could replace either but I don't trust his batting against strong bowling.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Dilshan is a much better player of lateral movement than Shewag. Sharma too.

 

[TheJediBrah]

Jayasuriya made some big scores against strong Aus attacks. I would trust him against strong bowling just as much, if not more, than Sehwag or Rohit

Dilshan is massively overrated though, especially by Migs. He has good career numbers but a second strong ODI opener at best

2 great hundreds by Jayasuriya against Australia, both in Sydney and SL wins.

What is the other commonality ? Symonds is the 5th bowler and actually does well.

I though he was being discussed as the opener of the 2nd XI?

@subshakerz,aren’t we going for selection of 2nd xi?
