Laker did relatively better in WI, SA and Aus than Ashwin did in SENA.
His SA tour was disaster in context. If the question really is non helpful conditions, none of the series was such. All 4 series had highest wicket takers (who averaged less than Laker) who were spinners. Benaud took 27 to his 15. In WI Ramadhin and Ferguson were superior. And his SA, again was disastrous. He was the worst of the frontline bowlers. Tayfield and Wardle ran mayhem there

Ashwin and Grum over Laker and Kumble ahead of Gibbs (though can see a case for him and Tayfield). Rest I agree with, mostly.
