Jack Hobbs vs Viv Richards

[Johan]

No idea why I voted Viv, changed.

 

[Johan]

I don't really consider Hobbs vs Sachin/Viv/Sobers debateable btw

Agreed

Agreed

love Sachin, but I don't think pre War Hobbs has any real contemporaries bar Don (who is greater).

Fair, I don't include him in my lists but tbh I'm fine with recongnising him as one of the greats

That itself is suspect.

That itself is suspect.

Sachin not being in Jack's league is suspect?

No but question is how would hobbs adjust in professional era across conditions like viv or sachin

probably around 65+ average in Sachin's era and 60+ in Viv's

Ok then he is best after bradman

 

[PlayerComparisons]

Hobbs looks much better than Sachin on the eye test imo

 

[Johan]

Yeah probably, Don't think there is much of an argument there in all honesty

 

[Johan]

honestly, for Viv to be better, he'd need to play until like late 90s and performing on level with Steve Waugh

 

[DrWolverine]

Viv

 

[Johan]

Jeez how much of a Viv fan one must be to vote him over Hobbs? it's Hobbs and it's not even close, and I admit that as someone who has Viv as high as he reasonably can be.
