Again, why the aribtrary 60 test mark?
The point is that for his bowling years he was still comfortably better than Hadlee as a bat.

Inferior to Hadlee first, inferior to Sobers after that.

You took the bait. So easy.

27 avg vs 30 avg ( with more not outs)
Not a big difference there.
Hadlee better in Bowling and fielding easily covers that 3 runs gap.

Not the way you expected.

If Smith is apart of the conversation Ponting should be aswell purely on statistics. He had a 50 game peak just short of Smith's.

Again, your comparison is bogus since Imran was a full-time pace bowler since at least 70 odd tests, averaging around 33 with 4 tons, still notably better than Hadlee, and arguably at that point a near equal pace bowler as well, since his bowling stats suffered in his last few years when he became a specialist batsman.

Ambrose also was leading by a big margin against Imran as a bowler. So do you agree with that poll result?

Ambrose is #4 all time for me and Imran is 6/7 so yes, never thought otherwise but the dubious reeeee 25 away logic should be **** on wherever possible

You don’t know about living daylights? I am disappointed.

12 centuries and 18 5-fers in 5 years (off the top of my head)
Sobers was obviously gun and not wrong to rank his peak higher, but Botham's peak is insane as well
it's the most alive thing there is...proof you don't know anything about chess or light...

Less flat era. 50 in both eras is not the same.

there is a certain fast bowler who’d kill to have an average of 25 or there and thereabouts in a certain country
