Was Gayle ever not baked? Didn't stop him from becoming Universe Boss.

Everybody knows Chris Gayle is a champion

Agree or cry.
Less athletic, certainly. Always difficult to compare eras however I recall a 1950s player quoted in one of the Stephen Chalke books as saying ‘modern players are fitter, but we were tougher’. Given 6 days a week County schedules, faster over rates, uncovered wickets and lack of protective equipment I think the opinion has validity.

You mean a literal single thread that was posted by mistake, requested to be moved and eventually so happened as well??

Just for the record, I use subscriptions and new posts to navigate the forum and as such have actually no idea where stuff is posted.
If I'm asked I will move stuff - I believe I am the favoured mod of @PlayerComparisons when he messes up because he knows I have a quick turnout when he asks me - but if you don't alert me to it I just won't notice.
If you tag four other mods and not me then I will just be salty about it and let people hate you for your error forever.

Don't think this is unpopular now. Some batting comparisons like Kohli vs Younis/Compton/Harvey/Boycott might be
Fixed.
I rate Younis Khan above Kohli when it comes to playing any kind of lateral movement, be it turn, seam movement or swing. But yes, Kohli is a greater cricketer, which brings me to that subshakerz thread.
Kohli is the undisputed king of white ball cricket though.
