Sunil Gavaskar vs Ricky Ponting
Not really. Thompson's stats were excellent, and practically the same, till 79. And given he debuted in 74, till 76 would had been a really short career. His stats took a nose dive from 81 onwards. And more importantly, his results in the series on question was excellent. Kyear2 won't rate that...- capt_Luffy

Sunil Gavaskar vs Ricky Ponting
Lol lol. 12 Centuries to ATG pacers all in "Fair weather". A 4th innings double ton in England is fair weather. Back to back centuries in Perth and Adelaide vs Peak Thomson is fairweather. Literally scoring 2 tons and a 50 vs Holding and Roberts in the Caribbean but not scoring in one match...- capt_Luffy

Sunil Gavaskar vs Ricky Ponting
I don't think Lara was better against pace honestly. Had the better series against peak McGrath, but he did had a few technical limitations to pace and they did came to fruition more.

Sunil Gavaskar vs Ricky Ponting

Sunil Gavaskar vs Ricky Ponting
I generally genuinely don't like the dominance argument. Specifically, I don't want my opener to dominate at all, rather play as many deliveries as possible; unless it's someone like Sehwag. Special Series is fair, a big reason why I infact rate him higher, but he also had a longer slump.- capt_Luffy

Tell me a single reason why you would rate Lara definitely a tier ahead of Sunny, except 99 and 02.- capt_Luffy

Sunil Gavaskar vs Ricky Ponting
Except yk..... He literally played for World XI based on this single series, and Garry Sobers rated him as the very best batsman he has Ever Seen, very much in this very ****ing series. It's pathetic at this point lol- capt_Luffy

Greatest Bowling Series: Harbi vs Hadlee vs Imran vs Barnes
Won't call Harbhajan a bowler who wasn't even good really. I think he was fine, though played far more than he would have in normal circumstances- capt_Luffy
