    But then Shane Warne failed against India, the best team of playing spin bowling. his record isn't too good against West Indies and Sri lanka either.

    that is true, I can't remember properly, I think NZ drew a test serious against AUS in early 00s, where as Pak got white washed every time they played Australia from 98 to 2011. does that mean Pak in late 90s and early 00s was worse than NZ?

    AB de Villiers vs Pieterson is another example. nobody talks about De Villiers yet Pieterson is already in most people's all time IX. I agree with IKKI stats alone can be misleading but accept the fact that players from those three countries are generally rated higher than players from other...

    South Africa might have not won against Australia with Pollock and Kallis, how does that make Pollock or Kallis not even mentioned in short lists of All time great teams? and there could be many reasons for not winning against Australia, 1st one mentioned above that cricket is between 11 players...

    By consistent I mean that people would ignore things for one player and not for other. so if 2 players A and B, both failed against the best team of their era, people would use that against player B and not against player A. Hope it makes it little clear.

    2019 & 2023 WC are again 10 Nations and World T20 back to 16 Nations

    Should have at least 12 teams in the World Cup, 9 - 10 teams to qualify automatically (depending on Zim status/ political situation) and other 2-3 associates. I would say associates should have rating system like full members (points for every match and serious) and based on those ratings the...

    Reverse Follow on?

    Not a good idea, as said by Sledger it would encourage negative play.

    I am not trying to convince anyone to say that Pollock is better bowler then McGrath. What I am saying is that players from countries other than India, Eng and Aus are underrated. Pollock and Kallis are just examples, you can add Allan Donald too. A lot of times players from other countries...

    Most people would rate McGrath higher as a PLAYER but the question is WHY? In test, Pollock has low 20s average against all nations except Australia. In ODI, his economy rate was 3.62 during 2000s when all the other bowlers were going for above 4.5 runs per over.

    I would love to have a nutter captain as long as his moves actually worked. :ph34r:

    so you agree that people are not consistent when rating players?

    Why can't India produce great fast bowlers like Pakistan?

    wouldn't the supplements that players take compensate for not eating meat?

    Why is Sachin rated so high? how many match-altering, initiative-grabbing innings does he have? and get over Murali throwing stuff, If he chucked he would have been banned by ICC.
