    McGrath vs Jack Hobbs

    England weren't strong, I never said that but their batting was better than the bowling equivalent from Ban, Zimbabwe, NZ (barring the 2002 series) and WI post 2000 that SRT faced. And Imran and Hadlee faced WI who were stronger that's it. They also faced minnowesque SL: 10 times and 6 times...

    McGrath vs Jack Hobbs

    What that poster fails to appreciate whether out of ignorance or pure hard headedness is that he makes it seem that : A Sachin faced a bunch of atg all the time B He was outstanding vs them all the time He wasn't. Sachin himself faced minnowesque level vs Zim, Ban and WI attacks (post 2000s)...

    McGrath vs Jack Hobbs

    Ordinary opposition? A Pak team with Akram, Imran and Javed not to mention Qasim etc you call ordinary? That team was better than any team currently playing barring India and maybe Australia.

    **Official** England in New Zealand 28 Nov-18 Dec 2024 - 3 Tests

NZ smash India away and owned Aust in the first test, something Eng and NZ could only dream of. But now England is owning NZ. Bangladesh then drew away to WI, who...

    Sobers vs Tendulkar

    As cricketers there's no comparison but as batsmen, really is a toss up. Add to that, Sobers was a peerless fielder. Funny enough both started out as teenagers and played 20 years, obviously Sachin played many more tests overall. I'll go with Sachin just.

    McGrath vs Jack Hobbs

    Up to your old bs. Tendulkar is not better than Marshall. You can say in your opinion that's fine but lets not act like it's definitive. Just because MM was in a team with bowling star power, doesn't discredit his accomplishments ie excellence every where vs everyone including in Pakistan on...

    Ravichandran Ashwin vs Bill O’Reilly

    I'm back. Lost my phone so had to create a new account. Anyway, Bill for me but it's maybe close considering Ash's body of work. Just the thought of facing a tall leg spinner at reasonable pace...yikes!!!
