Wasim Akram vs Sunil Gavaskar

[howitzer]

Well technically not fully. I've established that I have sunil around 9th among batsmen and Wasim 10th(ish) among bowlers.

Cool

Akram - better match winner, real secondary skill, more versatility in primary skill

Don't think his batting was as good as some believe, and don't think being left handed is as essential (if that's what you meant) as being one of the few top tier openers.

No offense @kyear2 , but I feel like it's become a tic of yours to bring up slip fielding with specialist bats to make them seem more comparable for a secondary skill to all-rounders.

Haha no ****.

 

[Prince EWS]

Lillee and Wasim in either order seventh and eighth?

Kallis and Sangakkara probably among the next couple, Headley and Pollock there about as well.

 

[kyear2]

Haha no ****.

And they are comparable gosh dammit.

Border and Waugh?

 

[Coronis]

Border and Waugh?

They’re definitely below Sanga and Kallis. (for most here)

Reckon they (particularly Border) are underrated
