Modern Fab 3 (or 4).

There is some nuance though which is bolstered by strike rates naturally increasing in the 2000s. I was going to use Crowe as an example of someone who wasn't really a grinder despite a mid-40s SR but that was average at the time.

Zaheer Abbas is often described as someone that had "insatiable HUNGER for runs" which relates to his ability to go big. He certainty wasn't a grinder.

Babar is 4 years younger than the youngest member of the Fab 4 and made his international debut 3 years after the last member of the Fab 4 made his debut

he does not belong to their generation in the 1st place, give him his own one
then what gen does he belong to mate?

Did Ponting not belong in the same gen of sachin?

im changing the table desc, i meant HUNGER as in run churning. Not lengthy innings or conversion rates. Im talking about having more runs career runs than the others in their bracket

the same Ponting who was born a year later than Sachin?

i literally said he belongs in the next generation after the fab 4 and that’s where almost everyone places him, I thought your limitations with numbers were just with cricket stats but they seem to extend to years and ages too

yes the run hungry Boycott who churned less runs than Gavaskar in the same column and the run hungry Gower who churned less runs than Border in the same column

good circular argument you got there

shame it doesnt prove anything
Yeah running to different topics after getting confronted. U said kohli and babar arent from the same gen because they are 4 years apart. Lara and Sachin are 4 years apart. Lara and Ponting are 6 years apart. According to you this isnt the same gen?

Kohli and Babar are 6 years apart too genius

Sachin and Lara made their debut a year apart which you conveniently forget
