Tracking The Gap - Boss vs Ponting

[THX_1138]

Pwnting's serious drop in average in the last four years.. Ended 2006 with an average of 59.38 2007 - 58.73 2008 - 57.20 2009 - 55.26 Present - 54.66 And his next series ? Against India in India where he averages a mere 20.85 in 12 matches !! :punter: :hehe:

i.e. in the last ten years, he has suffered a steady decline over the last 4 years... possibly longer in the doldrums before his rise in the 2003-2004 till 2006 period. and yet, he was awarded the player of the decade? ahead of jacques kallis, flintoff, sehwag, tendulkar, and vettori?

if the short great one performs they way he does for another few months, we might have to track the difference in runs on a logarithmic scale...

Goddy will pawn punter in the upcoming series (no doubt about it).... I just want him to score heavily in SA later this year... A repeat of something like 169 in cape town would be delicious for the eyes :yay:

^ 155 at Bloemfontein in 2001 wasn't bad either :)

True... any inning of goddy is watchable 10 times, whether its a 100 or a 30. its just that i like 169 in cape town a little bit more... Its a treat to see him bat

Dont intend to hijack the thread, but couldnt help Hailing sehwag. Just when Dilshan learnt to score at strike rate of 81, sehwag has moved to 91, and with better average :).

Chinnaswamy is one of Goddy's least preferred ground. I don't expect a triple there..just a century is fine for me :--D

its safe to say, Ponting is done and dusted?? Unless he wins World Cup one more time then he may survive longer
