    Gillespie to be sacked by Pak

    I am surprised he lasted this long.

    Jasprit Bumrah vs Joel Garner

    Lillee's average against Pakistan is skewed by his 1 series in Pakistan, but also because he mostly faced a Pakistan batting line up that was pretty decent. He faced arguably the best Pakistan lineups in our history. Mudassar Nazar, Majid Khan, Javed Miandad, Mushtaq Mohammad. Except for...

    Jasprit Bumrah vs Joel Garner

    Exactly. He doesn't have those impactful performances to back up his credentials as well. Which is why Lillee should be ranked higher.

    Jasprit Bumrah vs Joel Garner

    He has just 7 fifers in 58 matches. That is very low.

    Jasprit Bumrah vs Joel Garner

    Yes, but Lillee's body of work seems more impressive than Garner, too.

    Jasprit Bumrah vs Joel Garner

    I would think that for most folks, in and out of CW, Garner will struggle to make the top 10.

    Jasprit Bumrah vs Joel Garner

    I would agree with this

    Jasprit Bumrah vs Joel Garner

    No, Lillee should be ahead of Garner. So should Michael Holding.

    Jasprit Bumrah vs Joel Garner

    That isn't a lot of fun if you know why its like that :p

    McGrath vs Hadlee

    You mean like Marshall?
  11. smash84

    Jasprit Bumrah vs Joel Garner

    Yes, but that is because he was more consistent with picking up a 2-3 wickets an innings unlike Marshall or Holding who were more likely to run through sides.
  12. smash84

    Jasprit Bumrah vs Joel Garner

    Possibly. He has a great average but always played more of a second fiddle to Holding or Marshall and doesn't have a 10 fer either.

    India will not travel to Pakistan to play the Champions Trophy

    It is just about money. PCB is making noises, but will have to fall in line. There is no way that any ICC event goes ahead without India. PCB will have to suck it up in any case. Also, it isn't like the PCB is a professional and well managed board. I wouldn't be surprised if they are wasting...

    Garry Sobers vs Imran Khan

    Absolute peak means that post 84 it was downhill?

    Garry Sobers vs Imran Khan

    When people think of the greatest team ever, they are thinking of the WI team of the quartet of the late 70s and early 80s, not the one with Marshall in 1988. At least I do.

    Garry Sobers vs Imran Khan

    I love this revisionist history from kyear2, that Marshall was the one who propelled WI to number 1 in world cricket. He really freaking didn't.

    The ATG Teams General arguing/discussing thread

    I just won't pick McGrath over Hadlee. There is not much between them as bowlers. Hadlee far superior batsman. It's a no contest for me.

    The ATG Teams General arguing/discussing thread

    That seems like a lot of words without actually addressing the question. Even if Gilchrist kept expertly to McWarne, Healy did a better job. Healy was the better keeper. So essentially you're saying that the margin of keeping that Healy or Knott is better than Gilchrist by is offset by the...
