Anybody who has a top 500 in his armory but deprives others of the whole list by posting only the top 60 should definitely be infracted.NGL, would be really funny if I get an infraction for this.......

I like your list. I'd probably swap Smith & Lara as well as Kallis & Ponting. Plus move Gavaskar into the top 10. And Sanga below Chappell and Waugh.1. Bradman

Think smith has done enough to be ahead of lara also give more points for kallis for being all rounder. Sanga is pretty much underated imoI like your list. I'd probably swap Smith & Lara as well as Kallis & Ponting. Plus move Gavaskar into the top 10. And Sanga below Chappell and Waugh.

Despite Gavaskar rising a whooping 7 spots and Weekes confusing me, the previous list was much better imo.Interesting to see my own list from over 2 Years ago. For new changes

Sutcliffe, Gavasker, Sachin, Pollock have risen in my eyes tbh. Viv probably despite a great player I think is slightly overrated.
@capt_Luffy wont like the removal of Trumper.
Kallis the better batter for his bowling?Think smith has done enough to be ahead of lara also give more points for kallis for being all rounder.

If just Tests and not looking at cultural contribution to the game, then take out Trumper/Ranji/Barry for Kohli/May/Root
Naturally, I'd change a few things now. Difficult to maintain the same opinions over lists like that for so long.Pretty much bang on, DeVilliers and Root in with a shout too,
Would guess Root gets in surely now and Kohli no longer in stand by......Naturally, I'd change a few things now. Difficult to maintain the same opinions over lists like that for so long.
Kohli's stock has definitely fallen. But as for the list overall, I'd probably avoid that. Some very difficult cross-era comparisons.Would guess Root gets in surely now and Kohli no longer in stand by......
