The 5 worst fast bowlers who average below 25

[Johan]

stop yapping about Cummins and argue against the Lillee slander @Burgey

 

[GIMH]

He'll be averaging 18 with the ball after the Ashes next summer.

Economy rate maybe

 

[Burgey]

Economy rate maybe

Economy rate will be 0.0032 rpo. Even Michael Vaughan says England can’t win the Ashes out here.

People who argue against Lillee are pea brained. More to be pitied than despised.

The same clowns who’ll argue some plodder from the SC deserves a break because two series in a given country is too small a sample size to judge them against say 4 tests in two countries which don’t matter anyway count against DK.

Ridiculous. Bloke was a genius. Look at how he bowled on those horrible, turgid decks in Melbourne and Adelaide in the early 80s as examples of what he could do on flat decks.

Watch his entire last over to Richards on that Boxing Day in 81, not just the last ball. Just a Masterclass of fast bowling on a flat decks. Couple of short ones, three outswingers then the subtle change of angle for the inswinger on the last ball to get the edge and castle him. Genius level cricket. Fmd Hadlee couldn’t even produce that against Mike Whitney half a decade later ffs.

He’s the template for every modern fast bowler. These clown comparisons with other idiots who came later. Spare me this stupidity, they’d be honoured if he deigned to wipe the jizz from his old fella on their foreheads after he’d finished with their partner.

 

[Johan]

well that went well until the last sentence.

He talks almost as much **** as you do though

 

[Burgey]

He's right though. You know it. That's why you're too scared to travel out here and watch your blokes get beaten black and blue.

Shouldn't have needed to after the Morrison- McDermott LBW though.

Agree re Lillee though. Before my time, but I've read and seen on YouTube is amazing (Lillee to Viv especially)

I'd managed to skim read it and not notice it until then

According to @h_hurricane's famous formula, batting average of 50 is equivalent to bowling average of 1200/50 = 24.

Says the guy who thinks Root will average 75 in the Ashes

aren't you praying he does?

According to @h_hurricane's famous formula, batting average of 50 is equivalent to bowling average of 1200/50 = 24.

There's a way of coming up with a similar method.

The aggregate average of all time is almost 32 (31.93 to be exact). But it involves tail-enders batters as well. To exclude the effect of tail-enders, we can add 2.6 runs to the aggregate average. So, bowling average of 34.6 is equivalent to batting average of 34.6. Assuming that batting average*bowling average=constant, we get,
Batting average*bowling average= 34.6^2=1200.

And then we can figure out that a bowling average of 19.42 is equivalent to a batting average of 1200/19.42=61.79.

Why exactly 2.6?

So Bumrah is the modern day Adam Voges?

75 is conservative. 100+ is likely

 

[sayon basak]

Why exactly 2.6?

To come up with the result. My intention was to come up with the explanation of what @h_hurricane did. If 32 was used, then batting average of 50 would be equal to 32²/50=20.48 bowling average, which seems a bit off.

 

[Johan]

75 is conservative. 100+ is likely

would you say it's likely he beats Hammond's records for most runs in an Australian ashes by an Englishmen?

It doesn't depend on him saying it. It's happening no matter what.

I've never seen an ATG cricketer's legacy being so dependant on a single series tbh
