Most of the batsmen today want to excel in T20s or IPL and hence they lack the patience & skill necessary to survive in Test cricket.

Yea batting strike rates are starting to go up and as a result we’ll see bowlers putting up better numbers

Hint — That person is someone who scored 5 hundreds in the same year against Bumrah, 4 hundreds against him in one series.

Root averages 31.8 against Bumrah in tests and 12 against him in Odis btw
You were using Pontings average against specific bowlers against him even though he scored hundreds against them

Cricket World Cup 2023: England's Joe Root targets 2027 tournament with no plans to quit ODIs - BBC Sport
England batter Joe Root says he has no plans to retire from one-day cricket after the World Cup and is aiming to play in the next tournament in 2027.
www-bbc-co-uk.cdn.ampproject.org
he wants to play Marquee ODIs and The World cup until 2027, and there is just no way an English cricketer retires from tests before ODIs. Fitness, health care and so forth are at absolute peak of what they ever were so I think he can pull it off, his type of batters (technical nudgers) don't really decline with age either, so we should've quite a few years unless something goes horribly wrong.

Root has hardly played one day cricket in last 5 years.
Since 2020 - 25 innings. 666 runs @ 28.9 and SR of 81

Yeah, I just cut off at 3. Not sure about Laker and Grum. Both borderline though.

During the lunch break I was watching some highlights of T-20, and I've said this before... This era of batsmen don't know how to build innings. The bowling isn't better, more matches are ending in results because too many of the batsmen are brought up on ****.
I personally don't watch it, wishes we didn't allow our youngsters to play it.

One of these days you will learn which posters votes to look for, and which you can count on to vote for certain players just because.

Building an innings is an art and it has to be practiced. If you play T20s and modern day one day for a long time, you will eventually forget how to play proper test cricket.

Whatever it takes!!!
I was talking about fast bowlers.
Kumble averages 32 in SA, 37 in Aus, 40 in NZ, 41 in Eng, 42 in Pak and 44 in SL.
Ashwin has hardly played in NZ. He averages 42 in Aus & 49 in SA. Yeah compared to Kumble, he has a better record though.
