    Jack Hobbs vs Sachin Tendulkar

    If Miandad with his 33 in WI and 38 in Australia to be better than Gavaskar away was supposed to be a joke, it wasn't particularly funny. Dude isn't better than Younis.

    Prasanna vs Qadir

    The one with a good series in Australia. Not particularly close

    Kohli Test Average

    Nah, I think a bit too big of a demand. 300+ is perfectly fine, given the rest of the batting. Let him play in England and his average there fall below 30.

    Jack Hobbs vs Sachin Tendulkar

    Jack Hobbs. He literally has a perfect record, even the only caveat Tendulkar have (lack of 500+ runs series, which I frankly don't value, like at all); Hobbs has filled up there as well. It's the only reason I said in this thread that Hobbs and Tendulkar are above the rest, though nothing much...

    Jack Hobbs vs Sachin Tendulkar

    Might be Sobers found Gupte a bit difficult to bat. Or it can be Qadiresque situation (though better spinners existed back then, Sobers himself played a fair few). Or my favourite, it was a jab at Benaud as the latter rated Kanhai higher.

    Herbert Sutcliffe vs Jack Hobbs

    Was a pure skill if you ask me. Princep was even standing at a wrong point, his driver literally drove him to there by taking a wrong turn.

    Herbert Sutcliffe vs Jack Hobbs

    And I agreed??? Adding a comment on the ignorant claims of him peaking post 40 for volume (which, come to think, aren't actually that ignorant. He wasn't better, but 100 centuries after turning 40.....)

    Herbert Sutcliffe vs Jack Hobbs

    I mean after War he played majority of his matches in his 40s...... The only thing it really proves are the claims claiming he was better post 40 than pre wrong.

    Is there a difference between a greater cricketer and a better cricketer?

    Imo Murali was better just because he was the Greatest home bowler of All Time, by a really big margin. Ofcourse their home conditions aren't comparable, but this just puts Murali firmly ahead in my mind. Not a big gap, but Murali ahead.

    Jack Hobbs vs Sachin Tendulkar

    Also has a solid County record and some class knocks in English conditions in the FC games, like the one mentioned above. He unironically averages lower in India vs England than in England itself.

    Jack Hobbs vs Sachin Tendulkar

    Fair, but highly doubt the issue can be considered comparable to that of Ponting and Kohli. Certainly wasn't perceived as such when he played I believe. Also, in his last FC game, RoWXI vs MCC, he scored 188 against Marshall and Hadlee opening the bowling.

    Herbert Sutcliffe vs Jack Hobbs

    1900s and 1910s were a totally different beast than the 20s and 30s. Sutcliffe is comparable with Gavaskar and Hutton, Hobbs is clear of that group.

    Jack Hobbs vs Sachin Tendulkar

    And that officially ends this discussion from my part.
