Razzaq vs Afridi( In ODIs)

[Rob Wesley]

Who was the better all rounder/cricketer in ODIs?

 

[Rob Wesley]

Who is better bowler and better batsman?

 

[subshakerz]

Razzaq. Late 90s he was a class bowler and he is a better hitter than Afridi especially in late stages of matches.

Afridi would dream of hitting McGrath for 5 fours in an over.

...so you're saying he could do it in his sleep?

If he's dreaming.

Insulting to McGrath.

Afridi’s longevity and strike rate is insane.. Also good WC performance

Razzaq played over 250 games for 15 years. At that point, longevity is moot between them. Razzaq was just a notably better bowler than Afridi.

Afridi had a good WC with the ball in 2011 but flopped in the ones before that.

Afridi played around 20 years… 150 more games
Opened the batting more than at any other position…fastest 100 once.. Strike Rate of 117
9 five fers
Razzaq might have better barely stats if longevity is
ignored

I always thought that Razzaq was a Shaun Pollock clone

Disagree. You are underselling Afridi's bowling. He has a barely higher average and a better Economy, despite playing in a much later era and bowling leg spin.

 

[shortpitched713]

They were exactly as good as one another.

Razzaq the better batsman, Afridi the better bowler.

I have heard there was such a thing as prime Razzaq, so maybe he could've been better, but idk.

Afridi was terrible and Razzaq wasn't
