    Team of Jadejas vs Team of Ashwins

    The winner would be Cricket. Also the winner would be Jadeja.

    When was the zenith of each side?

    England: August 2013 - Present.

    **Official** English Football Season 2023/24

    Aye, though that was our first season back after promotion. Team has changed a lot since then but the transformation in performance under Emery is wildly beyond the level of personnel changes.

    **Official** English Football Season 2023/24

    I might need to brave Twitter and take a look, but nice call there. We actually did play well for ~75 mins of that 5-1 defeat.

    **Official** English Football Season 2023/24

    Emery taking Villa to the CL the season after Gerrard was en route to relegate us is wild.

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

    Does Headley make the Oz XI? Maybe as opener if you play him out of position, not sure he cracks the middle order though

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

    My first thoughts are WG Grace and Chris Woakes.

    **Official** English Football Season 2023/24

    I'm hoping hard for a draw tonight because I'd enjoy an Arsenal title win but want Spurs out of the race for 4th.

    Who is the greatest bat with a sub-50 average?

    Harsh. I also sometimes post memes about Himannv's irrational dislike of Sangakkara and praise Jadeja in threads where subshakerz is active.

    Anderson to end Test career this summer

    It's because JBMAC is also noted for his love of Bazball.

    Grace & Woakes are my first thoughts.

    What? You forgot Woakes exists? Now I'm really mad.

    Nooooo Still time for an Iqbalesque retraction I guess.

    Who is Asia's sixth greatest cricketer?

    Hmmm, Sanga, Waqar and Gavaskar all seem fair picks I guess.

    *Official* Pro-Wrestling Thread II

    It depends what you are looking for in a wrestling match I guess. Meltzer loves long, modern matches where the emphasis is on lots of workrate and athleticism. So Danielson/Osprey is perfect for him I guess. I don't follow Cagematch ratings but I guess the users there must love the same sort of...

    *Official* Pro-Wrestling Thread II

    I haven't watched the weekly AEW TV for months, so all I'm going on is the pre-match video package. Which had Osprey talking about how he "has the best wrestling matches in the world" which I find a bit cringe. Surely the wrestler should be saying "I'm the best wrestler in the world, no one can...

    *Official* Pro-Wrestling Thread II

    Eh, maybe fair but at least that was for a belt and the two had a kayfabe rivalry/history to play off. I don't mind that AEW booked a dream match between Danielson and Osprey (I'm glad they are booking good matches!) I just wished they'd bothered to give them a story line as well.

    *Official* Pro-Wrestling Thread II

    Agree with everything you've said there. "Emotional resonance" is exactly what stops this (and similar "dream" matches) from being absolutely elite. However, as one-shot, self-contained matches go this was really well executed, which works for me too as a fellow cherry-picker in what I watch.
