I need to see a cardiologist after reading this.
The term used before, Fair-Weather Batsmen is something very applicable to Border, but I'll go one step ahead and call him what he was, a featherbed specialist. Harvey > Border
See, you can complain about Border hiding down below. What you can't do is call him a fairweather batsman. There are very few for whom the term is as wrong as it is for TOTAB

I want you to do me a favor, and take look at the pitches where Sunny succeeded.

He struggled vs Lillee, and only scored in the Caribbean vs Marshall and co in Trinidad and Guyana.

He wasn't good in quick conditions, not comparable even to Barry at the time. That's why he was called a fair weather fighter.
Was Lara good in quick conditions?
