You got this one chief

Why do so many says Don Bradman played against farmers? During his era conditions were blowing friendly or batting friendly?

a lot of people are stupid so that's probably why, I don't think that's a stance beyond like 0.1% of the community, Bradman faced good pacers and some great spinners alike, England was alright and pretty neutral considering everything but Australia was flat, tho Bradman averages higher in England than in Australia lol

Sobers is like a legendary warrior , a once in a lifetime cricketer ..

Love this video of him when he was past his prime but taking a young Lillee to the cleaners.

Peer rating here is more how opponents compare Smith as a threat to Kohli and Root his closest competitors. It doesn't seem Smith has a big advantge I thought he did.

Williamson

Even during his peak(2014-2019) he was easily the best and ahead of the rest.

Away conditions(2014-2019)

Away and neutral Williamson averaged 57 in that time frame

I doubt Smith could replicate the 254 at the same age

Sobers was a pure freak of nature. The guy is the personification of being an MC. In a complete cricketer sense, I don't think he will be surpassed in the forceable future.

No last game was 80percent in favour of aus, but suddenly Eng changed the ball and it started swinging so much , and aus collapsed.

then again, the fourth game was England on the top, the Australian top 5 had been busted through and they were 60 trailing with Cameron Green and Mitch Marsh batting. then rain, Luck is a part of the game.

That was in 1971. In 1950s and most part of 1960s, India was a weak side.

India were actually minnows till mid 1960s.
