    Harold Larwood vs Shoaib Akhtar

    Both were menacing fast bowlers. Harwood was quicker and more effective. Tough to compare due to the differences in era. But just for the heck of it, who do you think was better?

    Keith Miller vs Andy Roberts

    Will have to go for Keith Miller here. Miller could do everything that Robert could + he was at least 10-15 miles faster.

    Bowler / Batting Analogues

    That wasn't a smart thing to say. - Gordon Greenidge Seriously though, peer rating is another thing that we want to take into account or dismiss based on the player in context. We are all biased ****s.

    What are your thoughts on England losing games because of sub-standard pitches in this WC?

    Cricket stuff that doesn't deserve its own thread

    Was injured from what I recall. Good for the Kiwis though, the game would've been a lot more embarrassing otherwise.

    Cricket stuff that doesn't deserve its own thread

    Was just looking at Shoaib Akhtar's bowling videos. I'd imagine that if his off-field antics were a bit under control, people would've focussed more on some of his legendary spells. This epic performance on a dead pitch is barely talked about...

    Ricky Ponting vs Herbert Sutcliffe
