RTB tosses his line in, picks up like 50 Indian groupers within the hour.

Ha ha. Escapism at its finest.

Dravid in NZ and England:

Man, those England stats. From 13 tests, Dravid only has 3 less hundreds in England than Mike Atherton over his long 115 test career a lot of which was spent opening in England.

Carrying his bat in England and then immediately going back to open after India followed on is some premium ****.

There is a reason why it is always silly to compare players whose career is still in progress with players who have finished their careers.

There are valid broad strokes from all sides here - the batting average as a whole is never the best indicator of the value a batsman brought to his team, the 00s and even early 2010s were notoriously batting friendly, batting conditions across the world have been tougher since the 2015 WC in tests, the 90s were equally tough for batsmen especially without the support of A tours or IPL and other LO contest to get used to at least some of the conditions etc., the 90s had more ATG bowlers etc etc.

Its just that it all the boils down to ****-posting, troll-baiting and countertroll-baiting at the end. I love KW but its very silly to compare incomplete careers to complete ones.

I just absolutely love ranking players and arguing about player ranks it's the best thing about this website

Big upping stats against some awful NZ and England teams is big brain

Sorry to break your bubble but no one was even replying to you. It was all about piling up on thePhlegm.

Kiwis are being made extinct largely due to predation and I'm sure cats would be a big part of that

Mate nobody reads your posts anywhere yet you're still here.

I can see why being here is an important metric for you given you keep crying like a baby and leaving.

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

The burn doesn't even make logical sense. Being here is an important metric because I... keep leaving it?

Kane would never have the balls to declare Ross taylor on 194

Because you keep coming back

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

[Athlai]

Much like a Dravid innings they're just trying to stonewall you for a draw.

 

[OverratedSanity]
