Love Chandra a lot, but think Underwood was slightly better

 

[ataraxia]

Chandrasekhar was Indian and averaged 30. Underwood was English and averaged 26. In other words: it's not nearly close.

Chandra never had a bed of fungi to bowl on

 

[sayon basak]

Chandrasekhar averaged 29.74 in matches where other spinners averaged 33.91.

Underwood averaged 25.83 averaged 25.83 in matches where other spinners averaged 35.61.

 

[ataraxia]

Chandrasekhar averaged 29.74 in matches where other spinners averaged 33.91 {and other bowlers (spin+pace) averaged 28.75}

28.75? That can't be right.

Who knew bowling as part of what's literally called the spin quartet will make it that other spinners around you have a lower average???

When you are part of a strong attack, there will be more pressure on the batting lineup - Wickets may drop but average will be better imo.

Say there is a batsman that plays well against a specific bowler, he will be dismissed by the other bowler and the first one will have a crack at the others.

Sorry that should be 31.5 ig.

Underwood had a stronger attack with great pacers around. Using 4 spinners in non spin friendly conditions is never a good idea really.

Only Bedi averaged better than 33.91 in those matches tho (lol I'm gonna pretend like the average doesn't drop to 39 in those matches if the quartet is excluded).

The spin quartet had quite high averages though.

Bishan Bedi had a good record, excluding his average from those matches results in an overall average close to 40 in those matches.

I mean, you kinda expect that by playing with 4 spinners. None of the good 3 have necessarily a high average for a spinner though.

Prasanna and Venkat average 35.7 and 39.3 respectively in those matches. That's pretty high imo.

Overall Performance Prasanna averages 31. That's fair IMO.

I’m glad Venkat is the bad one. I could never remember his whole name, fortunately he rarely comes up.

Srinivasraghavan Venkatraghavan. Kinda flows in the tongue. Truthfully, I am much more impressed with you remembering the full names of Prasanna and Chandra

I mean when I say full name I’m basically meaning last name, since cricketers are so ubiquitous with initials.

I did think up a useful way for me to remember whilst on the bus tho.
