Rahul Dravid vs James Anderson

[PlayerComparisons]

Maybe the CW consensus has changed over the months. I bet Ash would beat Laker and grimmett too if the poll were done now.

I guess I would value Anderson's career slightly more overall with slight bias towards pacers as decider.

I voted for Ashwin due to batting though Anderson is a better bowler

Dravid is just better and more respected in his primary discipline.
Everyone knows Ashwin built his career almost entirely on home bashing. It's a cheap way to try and get into the ATG title that he doesn't deserve.

So you rate Ashwin over Anderson and Dravid over Ashwin but don't rate Dravid over Anderson. Something doesn't add up.

Dravid but it's close. Bowlers being slightly more valuable than batsmen narrows the gap but Dravid's lead away from home is a bit too much even factoring that in.

It's clear from what you have quoted that he rates ash over Anderson as an overall cricketer, not only as a bowler. Also he mentioned his bias towards pacers at the beginning. It will add up when you approach it from the accurate POV.

And he also rates Dravid over Ashwin as an overall cricketer, and Anderson over Dravid as an overall cricketer.......

True by right I should rate Dravid over Anderson. It's really close.
