    Ravichandran Ashwin vs Hedley Verity

    As you know test record is not the be-all and end-all until we get into post-WSC times, especially w.r.t. county players, magnified in the Bradman era.

    All-time Australia XIs - A re-run

    For Australia G, please: choose two middle-order bats (i.e., 3, 4, 5, or 6) choose two pacers to open the bowling

    Ravichandran Ashwin vs Hedley Verity

    No, he averaged 14. It's just that for some strange reason anyone who actually knows a thing about him has long since stopped contributing to this subbie (for which I blame Ashwin)

    If Jadeja played for Australia concurrent with Lyon, how many tests would Lyon had played

    Lyon wouldn't ever have debuted with any half-decent spin option ahead of him IMO. Averaging 34 at the next level down doesn't cut it, and his contemporaries SOK averaging 25 and Holland 32 would have probably prevented his inclusion on SC tours. It was unlikely enough that Lyon was discovered...

    What if he were your no. 8 batter too? Where is the line?

    Then what is your problem with the selection of Redpath over Hughes? Simply – a lack of a majority.

    All-time Australia XIs - A re-run

    I did so in agreement with you and the result of the previous exercise that Cowper was better suited to #3 than #4. Two people putting Cowper over Redpath does not a consensus make. Batting positions being amended after the fact were common the last time this task was done as well – you were...

    All-time Australia XIs - A re-run

    @Qlder I clearly gave the option to pick one of Redpath and Hughes at #6. Equally, that you voted Hughes at #4 did not preclude you from saying "if Redpath is selected, I vote Hughes for #6". However, there is a realistic chance that Hughes could beat out Lehmann/Symonds (that had slipped my...
