I have written almost an article about Roro before, but I will just add here that Roro averaged 100 when his contemporaries were mostly doing 20-25, almost 30. He played in hellish pitches against mostly good pacers and more than a few quality spinners. Basil D'Oliveira played in those competitions, in his prime; and averaged in 30s before going to average in the 40s in Tests beginning at 34.
