Standard CW logic when it comes to "analysis" of any player that people have decided is no good/they don't like imo. See it all the time.
"But but but if we arbitrarily subtract/ignore/exclude all of the times this player was good, they were actually never good at all!"

Kallis v Guacamole has probably been done 3 times and no doubt the squashy avocado is currently 2-1 up!!

Honestly I’m just pushing the Anderson button for fun. And there’ll always be a bite.
Lets not exclude anything though.
39 tests 117 @ 35.97 SR 73.4
Anderson sucks in the Ashes.
Ranks 25th out of 33 amongst 21st century pacers, 11th out of 17 English pacers in ters of average. (min 10 Ashes wickets) Also ranks 31st in SR.

Oh I know, I wasn't really referring to your post(s) in particular. Like I say, you see it all the time on here. What passes for "analysis" is often people deciding what they want their conclusion to be and then reverse engineering some completely cooked and arbitrary methodology to support it.

I have an online life outside of CW sledger. I also post on reddit.

Just stay off Twitter and you’ll still be a respectable online citizen.
But the best thing is listening to other people read other people’s reddit stories.

Apologies mister. I had forgotten what a cultured man you are.

Its a matter of time before our Andhra and Telengana bros take over Reddit and it becomes Reddyit anyways.

Lets be real, only because no other English pacer played more than 3 games.

what a stunning point against Anderson, that he was the only one to play 5
& he did it with a trip around the world to see his kid being born in the middle of the series

Anderson being bad in the Ashes for a "great" bowler is just a fact though. A few good performances here and there doesn't change that.

It’s not a fact.
He was obviously awful in his first Ashes, which he had no business being at. And last year couldn’t buy a wicket. He’s somewhere around the 30 mark for the rest of the time in the Ashes which certainly doesn’t support the idiotic narrative you chip on shoulder merchants try and sustain about him being crap in the Ashes.
He would say himself that Broad was the better Ashes bowler. But that’s neither here nor there.
