the same (underachieving) couldbe said of dravid who avg 50 in the 90s as well - he avgd 49.96 which is basically 50. he was avg 58+ at the end of WI series in 2006. another big underachiever.

 

btw, more than 3 batsmen avgd > 50 in the 90s even if one imposes a 1000 run cutoff in that decade. I can think of atleast gooch, tendu, lara and waugh.

Yup Gooch averaged in the 50s in the 90s. He was mediocre in the 80s and that pulled his average down, very under rated bat. But I don't put him alongside SRT, Lara, Waugh because he played only for 3-4 years in that decade while the former 3 played the full decade.

yes, he was eng's best batsman after barrington. followed by kp arguably and then root. I don't rate cook on the same level as these guys.
