Is this the most brutal test innings EVER?

Nathan Astle's innings was just something else.
I'll upload Astle's innings one day' date='[b'] it really was something else He was running at the bowlers (Seamers) and just smashing the ball out of sight
I liked Gilchrist's 100 at Perth (2007 Ashes) better. Those sixe's of Flintoff were something else.
Wtf is this "something else":hysterical:

Gilly's ton against us at Mumbai in 2001 and his assault against RSA in RSA in 2002 when those idiots sledged him about the whole Slater affair were pretty savage too. What made those efforts more brutal was the fact that the Australian top order had been dismissed for next to nothing when Gilly came in and annihilated the opposition.

Astle innings was on a run fest with short boundaries. He kept playing the smack down the groung and targeting the kids boundary. Good knock but to compare it to Sehwags is ridiculous. Sehwags knock was one of genius and arrogance. He played all the shots astle did down the ground(to adults size boundary) and 100 shots more. Veeru was playing dab, sweeps, reverse sweeps and any shot you can think of. No offence astle was a limited btasman not exactly easy on the eye. Sehwag knock was like a Ferrai purring, Astle was a BMW having a good day
