    Now that Ashwin and Kohli have retired, where do you rank them?

    A lot of members here don’t like to rank players/put them in ATG XIs until they’ve retired or are clearly almost done after long careers. Now that Kohli and Ashwin have retired, where do you guys rank them? Feel free to discuss where you rank Ashwin as a spinner, overall bowler or hell even...

    Determining player of the match/series for historic tests

    I’ll start this off half-assed. England in Australia 1876/77 First Test: Charles Bannerman 165*, 4 Starting off with the easy one, Bannerman’s 165* remains to hold the record of the highest % of team runs by a single player in a completed innings. Absolutely pivotal in Australia’s 45 run win...

    Mt. Rushmore for non-cricketing exploits

    By this I mean, who would you put on a cricketing Mt.Rushmore for purely reasons outside the actual playing of the game. I have a feeling Benaud would be an almost unanimous choice. Some other names coming off the top of my head would be Kerry Packer, Dickie Bird and Frank Worrell. Thoughts?

    Test bowling only I thought Warne should eventually lose a poll to a pacer

    Hammond vs Tendulkar

    Who was better at the SCG? Also fun fact - despite it being his home ground originally, by far the worst Australian ground for Bradman.

    Cricket Balls

    So, just a topic I’m curious about. I’ve tried to do some research on cricket balls used throughout international cricket but info seems quite sparse. Perhaps it hasn’t really been kept track of, or I’m just bad at researching. If anyone can offer some more insight that would be awesome. Dukes...

    Unpopular Cricket Opinions

    Saw this and couldn’t help thinking it might make a decent thread. My easy one: Viv Richards isn’t a top 10 test batsman of all time (he’s barely top 15)/Ken Barrington > Viv Richards

    Best players in certain age ranges

    (I’ll exclude Bradman) Teenager Tendulkar 1522 @ 44.76 5 tons Waqar 55 @ 19.49 5 5’fers Adams 31 @ 25.06 1 5’fer Harvey, Miandad and Pollock were all options, but combined they played 10 less matches than Tendulkar so I gave them credit for that. Preferred Adams’ record to the output of...
