    T20 World Cup Predictions

    This will be the biggest surprise if it happens. And why exactly are so many people rating SA as the favourites in this WC?

    Which players would be locks in every OTHER country’s ATG XI?

    Really? I didn't know that. I always thought he was only a fast bowler (which he definitely was, and a very good one at that).

    Which players would be locks in every OTHER country’s ATG XI?

    That's actually a good way to think about it. I wonder how the probabilities change if you change the cutoff score to 20 instead of 30? 30 Would be a great score on a green top with ATG bowlers having a go at it.

    Seriously, whatever you have posted, includes direct quotes the length of whole paragraphs directly from cricinfo. If this is not a textbook case of plagiarism, then what is?

    T20 World Cup Broadcasters

    Seems like Amazon Prime Video is streaming the World Cup in Australia and NZ. That is awesome. I wish they'd do this in Canada as well, but won't be holding my breath...

    Better player : Bumrah or Headley ?

    Yes, but the win will only come if you have more runs.

    Better player : Bumrah or Headley ?

    This is not how it works though. You can have as many bowlers that you want. But there are very large diminishing returns to having more than 4. That doesn't mean that bowlers are 1.5 times more valuable than batsmen.

    Sachin Tendulkar vs Malcolm Marshall

    You somehow seem to miss all the valid points. More so than the worst slip cordons out there.

    Why is it viewed as more important

    Ok

    Better player : Bumrah or Headley ?

    Sure, one can make an argument for Headley, which you just did and it isn't necessarily a bad argument. It's always hard to assess the impact of players in weak teams (e.g. Shakib). I just think that Bumrah was more impactful because he was instrumental in two difficult series wins.

    Better player : Bumrah or Headley ?

    Bumrah has been instrumental in series wins in Australia though, which is the toughest test for SC sides. His Melbourne performance sealed the series for India in 2018. And always seemed to get key wickets, even in the 2020 tour. I don't think India would have won without him both times...

    Sachin Tendulkar vs Malcolm Marshall

    Your checklist is missing how Headley fielded in the slip cordon on the tour match against Durham.
