There is a concept in Cosmology used to measure distances to far, really far away objects like other galaxies. It goes by the name of the Cosmic distance ladder. There is constant debate in cricket, in fact all sports, about comparing modern day greats and achievements to the ones from the years gone by. It's a tough one in the absence of good video footage and possibly affected writings. I'll attempt to bring about an argument in this blog to look at the debate from a different perspective.
Measuring distances is a crucial aspect of Cosmology - for one of the basic questions that Cosmology aims to answer is how big is the universe? There is only a certain extent that regular physical measurements will help out.
