How Good is Tamim?

[mr_mister]

High Score 109 though...

Yeah agre with *****, that makes it more impressive imo.

A score of 60's increased importance to a score of 10 is so much more than a score of 160's to a score of 110 imo


This argument is usually put forward to help Hobbs and trumpers legacy who didn't get many daddy hundreds

Yeah he's been good lately. In all honesty I could see him sneaking into the South Australian XI after a couple of injuries

Batting records | Test matches | Cricinfo Statsguru | ESPN Cricinfo

Tamim Iqbal has 736 runs (3 100s, 5 50s) at 61.33 against England.

That's a higher batting average vs England than Rahul Dravid, Gary Sobers, Mike Hussey, Steve Waugh, Dean Jones, Arthur Morris and, of course, Allan Border.

Tamim WAFG.

Tamim likes eating English bowlers for breakfast, probably with some fish stew.

If we ignore minnow teams than his ave is 38.He can play in current Pak or SL easily

Clearly Bangerz best batsmen imo.

The greatest batter since Bradman.

Shakib is best player but in pure bat Tamim is better

Well duh.

By a light year. Shakib would make the top 100 all time greatest cricketer's list. The 2nd greatest BD player isn't even gonna make the top 300 (to say the least).

Not many all rounders out there that rival Shakib.Weird that there are very few all rounders in the world in every era unlike batsman or bowlers.

Doing both is a bit tougher than doing one I'd guess.

When BD used to rack up big totals. But now need numbers to confirm. Statsguru is not helping at the moment

Eh its possible he could have been ahead on form but I think Tamim was always seen as their number one bat until Mominul’s original hype at least.

fun fact; of all of BD’s greatest batsmen (Tamim, Mushfiqur, Shakib, Litton, Mominul) 4/5 have a ton in NZ, all since NZ’s growth with Southee, Boult and Wagner (except Shakib’s first ton in NZ in 2010, only had Southee + Vettori and Martin). And obvious which one of those 5 would not have a ton in NZ.
