    Australia/New Zealand motorsport thread

    Won’t be able to watch today’s race but I’m hoping for a banger. The qualifying stuff has really mixed stuff up. 3 BJR cars (none of them Andre) and 2 BRT’s in the shootout? Chaz starting 22nd? Yes please. @Flem274* @GoodAreasShane

    The Fastest Bowler ever?

    Pretty sure if there was a poll outside CW Broad would comfortably win.

    Viv Richards vs Sunil Gavaskar

    Gavaskar. When I say close, I kind of have Richards in a group with others, but its a group slightly behind Gavaskar. If I was to vote “not close” in one of these it would need to be Player A tier/group Whole other tier/group Player B

    I have all 4 tbh.

    Herbert Sutcliffe vs Wally Hammond

    Love Sutcliffe to death. But its Hammond. His ability to go big and dominate when on was second only to Bradman. (Lara and Sanga would fight him for this)

    Ashwin vs Murali - who is the greatest at home?

    I saw Ashwin completely neutralised at home by New Zealand missing their best batsman recently.

    Jasprit Bumrah vs Joel Garner

    And unfortunately didn’t get to open the bowling until 84. And this stretch is probably quite underrated due to bowling alongside the greatest fast bowler of all time during his peak.

    Herbert Sutcliffe vs Jack Hobbs

    Well, 5 years in test cricket. Believe both played FC for a few years after that, but Sutcliffe was retired before the war (apart from a one off match against an armed forces xi post war)

    Jack Hobbs vs Sachin Tendulkar

    Sorry, but I’m not sure why you’re trying to make an issue of someone rating Bradman in a seperate tier to all other batsmen. Would it have pleased you if there were more lines between them like this? Like seriously man.. This thread is getting a lil crazy lol.

    Herbert Sutcliffe vs Jack Hobbs

    Played 5 years longer, the big rule change being the lbw law re: pad play which Sutcliffe was a far larger exponent of than Hobbs. Makes little sense.

    Jack Hobbs vs Sachin Tendulkar

    Probably Holding. I’ve already established myself and am doing fine against the pace attack. Its just another pace bowler. The spin is completely different. Btw your arguments re: English ATG team’s batting being too slow to force a win are also quite relevant to Windies ATG team with 4 pacers.

    Herbert Sutcliffe vs Jack Hobbs

    You do know Hobbs and Sutcliffe played alongside each other, right?

    Ashwin vs Murali - who is the greatest at home?

    Rabada at home is literally insane. 33 matches 184 @ 19.07 10 5’fers 4 10’fers SR: 33.1!

    Jack Hobbs vs Sachin Tendulkar

    In Harper’s career span With Harper: 17 wins 2 losses 6 draws 68% win Without Harper: 28 wins 10 losses 17 draws 51% win (roughly similar to the entire 80’s decade win rate)

    Post entirely about excuse.

    Jack Hobbs vs Sachin Tendulkar

    Exactly. All the bowlers fault. Too much wasted time.

    Absurdly Awesome Cricket Stats

    Sydney Barnes played 27 tests. He took 24 5’fers. He actually took 5’fers in 18/27 tests. So if we’d been lucky enough to watch him play a test, we’d have a 2/3 chance to see him take a 5’fer. On the batting side, Bradman scored 29 tons in 52 matches. Scored centuries in 28/52 matches, a...

    Jack Hobbs vs Sachin Tendulkar

    Its because the team bowled in a way not conducive to wins.
