Adamant Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Whatever he averaged in the odis in that era + 7 aand whatever his economy rate in that era was +1. So basically a bowling avg of 50 at economy of 6.1 in odis. New guy, Lord, The Hound and 1 other 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last ODI in whites with red ball was in India vs Zim in late 2000. All the bilateral ODI series in India were in whites with red ball before that. I'm sure that was the case in England also.

maniac Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 A 19-20 year old Tendulkar would already be the highest paid player in this league for allround skills . Sachin underbowled because he was having fun when bowling. Extremely entertaining bowler. On a lighter note: I remember Sachin’s bowling winning more matches than his 100’s On top of my head: The hero cup final 1992 B & H series where he was our 5th bowler bowled a final over which helped tie the game. 5fr vs Australia 5fr vs Pakistan His bowling in the 2001 Kolkata test that often gets overlooked. Has many such freakish spells and match changing moments with the ball. AuxiliA, New guy and Rasgulla 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mishra Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 I think even he didn’t knew if its legspin, offspin, top spin, so would have been very handy in t20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If top spinners these day like Rashid average 32 then definitely Sachin would have averaged 50. He avgd 44 in a bowling friendly era lol, definitely his avg would go up in a batting friendly era. How is that even up for debate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pitches are definitely not flatter today compared to 2000s when sachin did bulk of his bowling Also grounds are only smaller in t20s and not ODIs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Secondly are you kidding me? 300 is rare these days! What? Also Sachin did most of his bowling pre 2005, 300 was a huge score at that time please go and take a look at how may 300+ scores have been scored in the 2010 decade vs the noughties. I am a firm believer that Sachin in this era would have averaged 55 at 95 or something, you are definitely underrating him by saying he played on flatter pitches and equally small grounds. Also test pitches were comparatively way flatter during the noughties but not loi pitches also no two balls rule. Cricspin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vvvslaxman Posted October 12, 2021 Author Share Posted October 12, 2021 (edited) If Tendulkar had an opportunity to bowl to current Kohli he would be averaging 15 lol Rashid a half tracker specialist somehow managed to have a wood over Kohli dismissing him 10 times across the format imagine what Tendulkar who could bowl just like Warne in patches would have done.

His bowling average was worse since he bowled in flat pitches against ATG bat's and his batting average is lower since he batted against all time greats in pitches conducive to bowling ok.. Don't bring small things like facts on how pitches can be flat and conducive at same time..
