Atherton almost certainly a better Test batsman.

The real question though is, are either a top 80 batsman of all time?

Edit: If you say no to either, then please list every Test batsman better than the aforementioned, otherwise I will be forced to consider your I'll conceived opinion null and void, and bid you a good day.

Hassett's about 75 too low there
It's not a ranking.... I was ranking them at first then went by whichever name I thought up randomly. Though I placed Hassett there quite intentionally as he was the vice captain in the 'Invincibles', and was clearly a more important batsman in there than Miller
