    He isn’t far to be in the 4th xi.Would be interesting to see how he goes in India.Last time he came here,he didn’t do that bad like rabada.It was the series when he was back to the test side IIRC and was ok.If he can put up a good performance in india ,he will be there in my 4th xi at this stage...

    Top 3 players of Fast bowling in last 50 years ?

    If I really have to go for one in history.I would go for D.R Jardine himself. He had a heart of a lion.His only century came against wi which had good fast bowling attack when they were bowling bodyline.And jardine didnt flinch a single time. Facing a good West Indies total, England suffered a...

    Barnes isn’t eligible.I wasn’t debating about O’Reilly or Barnes.I have huge respect for both of them.I just meant O’Reilly is among 10 of the greatest bowlers of all time.And Barnes >O’Reilly was universally accepted opinion. So,I was just saying Barnes is among few major contenders to be the...

    Aravinda De Silva vs Martin Crowe

    crowe was better.Aravinda despite being a really good batsman wasn’t as good as Crowe.

    Best team since Waugh/ Ponting’s Australia?

    Smiths sa gets the edge for now.But with new players instead of pujara and rahane for India.This may change.

    106 wkts at 36 innings in 20 matches at 21.5 vs Australia doesn’t look bad.S.F Barnes adjusted stats had him no.2 in DoG’s 100 greatest bowler.From DoG’s 100 greatest bowler. No.2 Sydney Barnes (England) 967 Quality Points: 891 Career Points: 76 Career: 1901-1914 Wickets: 189 Gold...

    jardine once famously said no batsman has ever truly mastered fast bowling.And i guess its true to this day.

    Well,Barnes is at least a candidate,right? Curious to know on what basis is he not among few major contenders for being the greatest?

    Ya,you can’t have Barnes.The best bowler before WW1 and arguably of all time.So,I don’t think Faulkner should be eligible as well.
