Tuk Tuk ranking in Tests (last 2 years)

[vvvslaxman]

Last 2 years is a good cut off point.  (500 balls min) We have entire batting top order in top 50. Rohit and agarwal 49 which is not overly terrible.

Look at Vihari and County Cricket Lion

Let us look at the reverse order. Pant scores faster than every bazballer from England

Actually present generation Ind batsman didn't played on pattas like last generation ind batsman.. This is the main reason for our batsman underperformance in tests..

They don't play at acceptable run rate even on batting friendly surfaces.

Atleast they performed under pressure ( VVS and Dravid and Sehwag) and Tendulkar played in 90s on turners.

 

Our current generation barely performs under pressure. Still can't believe how they threw away that South Africa series two times(2018 and 2021) and even England recently

Strike rate is not necessary in Tests..

 

If you are playing like a Pant or Sehwag then its great or else 45,50,55,60 are all about same only.. Below 45 and above 65 makes a difference though in negative and positive ways both.

Obviously 2000s batting lineup was best.. But this generation batsman(particularly indians) played mostly on bowling friendly pitches.. Laxman played 134 tests, out of 134 tests 46 tests was drawn.. Virat captained 68 tests, in 68 tests only 11 tests were drawn.. Recently home tests too worst for batsman

Not necessary. But ultra defensive approach often allows bowlers to get settled without allowing the batsmen doing much of a damage.

That's why I said Strike Rate below 45 has a negative effect.

Moreover, he doesn't even make it count by making big scores. Dravid also played defensively, but more often than not, when set, he made the bowlers pay. With Pujara, it is just blocking 60-70 balls, taking one or two blows on the body and then meekly plodding at one to the keeper.

Rohit with the best average and SR for an Indian here and yet gathers so much ridiculous hate

He skips the difficult tours in tests. Phattu.

[Vijy]

what matters more than just avg or just SR is a weighted combo of the two; the weights change from tests to ODIs to T20s to T10s
