Herbert Sutcliffe vs Wally Hammond

[Johan]

maybe I should get Sutcliffe's numbers against Larwood and Constantine?

Lets face it, Ashes is kind of important for Aus/Eng bats

Only if they are facing strongest attack in the world in Ashes. Otherwise, meh. Steve Waugh is remembered for what he did against West Indies and South Africa, not England.

A potential English batting lineup at least on paper looks insane:

Hobbs
Sutcliffe
Hutton
Hammond
Barrington
Root
Ames+

No, i wouldn't actually pick that top 7 but one could if they really wanted to....

I’d have Knott in place of Ames but I think I could say almost for sure that’s a top 2 top 6.

12th Man — Jim Laker

a strong wicket keeping batter would do wonders for England, hope Jamie ends with a 40-50 batting average.

Brook will definitely make the team in a decade, not sure about J Smith

The disrespect for Ken Barrington

Be Real, Root will definitely go past Barrington.
