Lol. You really think Flower would be able to keep to Murali or Marshall?

So just took a brief glance at some of the matches that Flower kept while batting at 5.

Has anyone ever looked at the amount of byes he let through?

So just for kicks and giggles I took a look...

I'm seeing innings with 17, 19, 14. Then I found a game with 0, and would you guess it, it was a game he captained but didn't keep.

Decided to look at Gilly, and again totally random, and just a handful, but the most I found in a game was 6. Multiple games with 0, keeping to leggies that turned the ball ferociously and Brett Lee.

The gentleman wasn't a world class keeper.

Again I ask, don't we think that if a keeper who batted like him and was world class existed, that we wouldn't have heard about it.

And on the flip side, do you know how poor one would have to be as a keeper who averaged over 50, and is never in an ATG discussion?

If no other question @capt_Luffy and @DrWolverine think about that one. How badly would one have to perform as a keeper, that you would average over 50 and get no consideration or discussion for an AT World team.
