    Kevin Pietersen vs VVS Laxman

    It depends on who you are comparing with. With KP who played all his career in middle order except for a solitary innings, it makes no sense.

    Kevin Pietersen vs VVS Laxman

    Give me a good reason on why they should be included. He wasn't an opener in FC cricket either and as a 22 year old, he was forced to do so against Donald, Pollock, Ambrose and Bishop. In the following seasons, he opened against Akram, Akhtar, Mcgrath and once again Donald and Pollock. What do...

    Kevin Pietersen vs VVS Laxman

    Just in the other thread, you said Border > Dravid but then Dravid has more hundreds and also batted higher.

    Kevin Pietersen vs VVS Laxman

    Laxman was never a opener ffs. He was a makeshift one to accommodate him in the XI as there was no middle order slot available at the time. You know it too.

    Kevin Pietersen vs VVS Laxman

    Subshakerz's resilience to come up with dumb posts time and again is praiseworthy. Has a really thick skin for bullying too which is appreciable.

    Ravichandran Ashwin vs Pat Cummins

    If Ashwin never toured Australia or SA, he would have been rated as the best spinner ever.

    Ravichandran Ashwin vs Pat Cummins

    His fifers are cute. 3 fors are cuter. They both win matches for his country.

    Ravichandran Ashwin vs Pat Cummins

    Cumulation of centuries and fifers for Ashwin is impressive as well. Only cricketer in history with 30+ fifers and 5 hundreds.

    Ravichandran Ashwin vs Pat Cummins

    Why should he prove himself against Labushagne, Green, Head etc, when he is generally picked to play against Bradman, Sobers, Viv etc.

    Should cricket aspire to be a 'global game' or not?

    And then they all play with the orgasm associates (Oman, Romania, Ghana, Argentina, Scotland and Malaysia).

    The ATG Teams General arguing/discussing thread

    He would have made more money by selling that instead of what he made in his 4 test career. Some fancy name like "Barry puri" would have helped.

    The ATG Teams General arguing/discussing thread

    Barry Richards was just a poor version of Yashasvi Jaiswal.

    Ravichandran Ashwin vs Pat Cummins

    Yes, they were cute(and impactful) 3 fors I agree.

    Ravichandran Ashwin vs Pat Cummins

    Haha, true. Funnily, I don't remember any of his bowling from that series, apart from the only hundred he scored and the hilarious way he escaped a stumping on the verge of it.

    Ravichandran Ashwin vs Pat Cummins

    And yet, Kumble was missing in 2001 triumph against Australia. He couldn't win a series against them in down under in 2003-04 and was a mute spectator when we were fried at home in 2004-05. Didn't win any series in Eng, NZ or SA through his career. India had to wait until his retirement to win...

    *Official* India in West indies 2023

    At this very point, Rohit Sharma's test average read from behind is the same as his ODI average. 46.84 vs 48.64.

    Ravichandran Ashwin vs Pat Cummins

    Zak Crawley is a Ashwin fan.

    Ravichandran Ashwin vs Pat Cummins

    Ashwin's bowling average outside India is marginally better than Cummins' in Asia.

    Ashwin vs Kumble

    Do agree that SENA holds higher weightage than SL+WI, but is it fair to completely ignore Ashwin's record in those 2 countries ? Those 2 countries are not as strong as they were once, but Ashwin made series victories there look like a walk in the park in a way several of his contemporaries didn't.

    Ashwin vs Kumble

    It isn't. Kumble away average - 35.85 Ashwin away average - 29.80
