[subshakerz]

Which combo is best for your average team?

 

[Coronis]

Probably Waugh cause you get a good captain too. Good captain could be quite valuable to an average side

What about Sanga as keeper?

Waugh is too much of an anchor for me to have. Give me the Sri Lankans.

Anchor may be more useful for an average team.

Sanga as a batsman alone is about 14 - 15 runs clear of Waugh. The Average difference between Murali and Warne with the bat is way less than that (6.5)

Waugh is a better batsman, Sanga had better career.
Sanga Just scored so many easy runs but steve waugh had to fight with legendary bolwers for some runs.

15 run difference is way too large even if the runs were easy.

Remove minnows and adjust for the fact that he had 2/3rds of tests at home.

Which spinner is better?

Good question IMO. Warne clearly must have chucked it to get that much spin with such accuracy, so Murali it is.

You can do it for the Waugh's record against Sri Lanka in Australia in 80s and early 90s.

Still as a pure batsman it is a gulf as big as that of America.
