If doing far better in dead rubbers compared to live Tests was part of a strategy then it must have been a pretty atrocious strategy in the first place . And it has been proved clear cut that against the great ATG pairs of the 90s overall, Tendulkar >> Lara comfortably in live Tests. Even in terms of their overall records against non-minnows in live Tests, Tendulkar has 13K+ runs at 51+ Lara has 9K+ runs at 48+ None of that is gonna change no matter how many dodgy filters you use on Statsguru leaving out specific bowlers for strategic reasons .

The OP wanted to take a dump on Indian batsmen's (mostly Tendulkar) record while using inconsistent filters against different sides . Too bad it backfired badly like that useless Avg*SR stat in the other thread. I understand that Tendulkar may have brought some joy to your life. And you may feel that you owe him something and have to defend him in every thread .... But assuming that every thread is a conspiracy (and when one can just start a Lara vs Tendulkar thread to discuss the topic if needed) is dumb .... would recommend getting your head checked for the paranoia On the Indian batsmen collectively, I do feel that we should have at least lost less, considering we had many of our ATGs playing together, which is why it is being discussed .... Again no reason for you to act as if your pants are on fire when such topics are discussed 3 hours ago, Jimmy Cliff said: If you know how Test series work, it shouldn't be too hard to explain that runs scored in live Tests mean much more than the ones in dead rubbers.

I do not see any reasons for you (or anyone) to get personal on this (even if it includes Tendulkar) btw, the guy you replied to has been blocked by me (and has been trying hard to get in to a conversation with me since a long time). Since you quoted him, I had to read his post I understand that your nonsensical Avg*SR stat in Tests getting mocked at in the other thread pissed you off and led to the creation of this thread. A bit desperate and pathetic but still understandable. However, if I feel that the filters in this thread were dubiously selected then I will call it out. If you think that's getting "personal" then so be it. If you are incapable for making for a case for Lara without resorting to inconsistent filters and poorly researched claims that's not my problem. 41 minutes ago, zen said: Keep dreaming! Yeah this article at Cricinfo is something I wrote in my dreams . Batsmen have boosted their career records by scoring heavily in matches inconsequential to the series Link to comment
