Cheers.Tendulkar. After his 31st ton he got Mervyn Dillon'd
you know the craziest thing about society is that we live in one tbhgetting picked as a "joker"
Nah he was picked for the Perth TestIt's actually a pretty great origin story, getting picked as a "joker" for the Boxing Day test and immediately nicking out to Anderson on that first day.
Indian fans rejoice as they can finally claim Tendulkar is better than Bradman after this decision@Prince EWS - good news. 'Stats' is no longer a synonym for 'career Test average' it's now means 'career aggregate'. Progress!
It's ok, you've got to let the English have some stat in the game they invented to make them feel good about themselves. It's why 5% of all UKs GDP is sunk into advanced cryotherapy treatment for Anderson and why the ECB schedule 50 tests a year - if you field one player in enough tests they're bound to scrape their way into the record books on sheer time alone. Their new motto will be "why do in 80 tests what you can do in 230"Bro we get it, he has more wickets
Means **** all in terms of quality in these comparisons
I could see him retiring from non-franchise white ball after this year. Surely he'll play Tests for ages though, he's still clearly got the hungerSome excellent commentary from Nasser re. Smith's retirement speculation
"What else is he going to do??"
I've been saying the same myself for years. Going to sound harsh but I imagine Steve Smith would be as close to a useless human as you can get if not for playing cricket
I'm sure many of them have been doing that anywayIndian fans rejoice as they can finally claim Tendulkar is better than Bradman after this decision
probably have a coffee up at Bertoni’s on Darling StreetSome excellent commentary from Nasser re. Smith's retirement speculation

How about average per wicket taken?Why are stats allowed for everyone bar Anderson
the numbers don’t lie
sorry but that’s just true
Someone wasn't reading ICF circa 2012 or soIndian fans rejoice as they can finally claim Tendulkar is better than Bradman after this decision
Averaged 70 in 5 different countries away and 44 in the other one. But yeah I get your point.Wrong
Seriously how the **** does Bell have 22 tonsIt's ok, you've got to let the English have some stat in the game they invented to make them feel good about themselves.

its a far more reasonable take than claiming Anderson is better than Danny MorrisonI'm sure many of them have been doing that anyway
Also pretty funny that future nerds will argue that his average should be adjusted upwards to account for the games against Pakistan where he was picked as a leg-spinner.Nah he was picked for the Perth Test
And promptly nicked out to Tremlett instead. In an even greater irony his terminal weakness was seen as fishing too much outside off stump.
Don’t encourage him to stay ffsDon't go yet. Broad still has a chance to get a hundred this innings. Off a lot less overs than Smith too.
Even then he looked much better with the bat! Hit a counterattacking 80-odd from nowhere IIRC that almost dragged Aus back into a dead lost game (still lost, but it was much closer than it looked before his innings)Also pretty funny that future nerds will argue that his average should be adjusted upwards to account for the games against Pakistan where he was picked as a leg-spinner.
