I said he's better than everyone except those three. Never said I consider him definitively worse than Lara-Ponting-Sachin did I?Judging by your own post, it just makes it accurate?
Yeah a great day for Tugga, but just another amazing job from Gilly too. I often talk him down cos I'm not a fan of his keeping. But bloody hell the guy could turn a game when he batted. Probably deserves a mention with regards the influential batting of the '00sWas watching some Steve Waugh today, and this incredible highlights package from his Sydney hundred of 2003 came through
It all looks so quintessentially classic now. From another generation, almost. Love the scorecard and the minimalism. It was better than the stat-fest we have now.
Well if anyone is voting any of those 3 when they actually think they aren't the best 2 batsmen of the period they are just trying to even out/skew the voting because they think a player is underrated. If you think Waugh or Dravid is underrated by the general cricket public, but nevertheless is not as good as Ponting or Tendulkar or Lara in this period, voting him doesn't make a statement of any kinds. I am looking at you FurballJust thought there'd be a few votes thrown his way when Kallis and Dravid have several votes too.
Nah, you exaggerate too much when you try and make points like this. Its not an unreasonable opinion, even if you think its wrong.Kallis getting more votes than Dravid is an absolute joke by the way.
Based on batting alone I would take Dravid mind youNah, you exaggerate too much when you try and make points like this. Its not an unreasonable opinion, even if you think its wrong.
It's called hyperbole. It's a literary device.Nah, you exaggerate too much when you try and make points like this. Its not an unreasonable opinion, even if you think its wrong.
**** offIt's just disrespectful to Kallisball.

Ranji and Clem Hill for the winVictor Trumper and Stanley Jackson
Looks like Ponting with the clear third here, not something I disagree with.Tendulkar and Lara - the debate for 3rd place will be quite interesting
