Ponting Vs Gavaskar

[capt_Luffy]

Didn't take it personally, just through it was condescending.

Valuating players is multifaceted and isn't adjudicated purely based on stats. Ponting at his destructive best had me fearing that he would be seen as the best of the era, and he just kept going, kept scoring... Of course that came crashing down, but he was there for a point and was a beast.

But again, that wasn't my primary point.

The problem was that point was used a little bit way to often. And I must say, of course rating players is multifaceted and all that, but can't you guys really see the ironical two faced theme of that argument, with you criticising old writers for doing the very same thing.

It wasn't about the ratings, it was about the language.

That being said, I have Viv 5th, Sunny around 9 and Punter 10. So no, I have Punter closer to Sunny than Viv.

dw, I also have Ponting closer to Viv than Gavaskar
