CW Ranks the Batsmen

BoyBrumby

Englishman
1) KS Ranjitsinhji
2) H Sutcliffe


Don't want to sound like the broken record, but think it's criminal Ranji isn't getting more support. Herb the only man other than Sir Donald to end with over 4000 test runs at over 60, which must count for something. Can only think his lack of a second initial has irked the southern snobs. :ph34r:
*sigh*

I'm not wrong tho, the whole damn system is wrong!! :p

Suttcliffe
Nourse

Nourse very underrated on these forums. Was South Africa's sole shining light while they were a minnow and captained the country to their first test match victory. Averages more than most today do as well.
