I just don’t understand why Ken Barrington is rated so low.

I can understand why he gets deducted a few points for longevity against players who played more than a decade but it makes no sense against Headley
Barrington is usually rated around the same level as Dravid and Miandad. I think that’s pretty accurate tbh.

No worse than the majority of batsmen on both teams tbh. Reckon Zak Crawley as part of the solution should get bonus points for that?
That's why I said part of the problem.

But if you're claiming him to be borderline top 10 / 15, he needed to have transcended that, at least for me.

Apart from the placement of Viv, Coronis’s ranking is pretty reasonable imo

It’s not like he’s putting some mediocre players above Viv either
