zen Posted December 25, 2010 Posted December 25, 2010 Simple Q: How much would the top batsmen of all time average if they had access to the same coaching, training, etc .... Some of the greats may not have played to their full potential so you when you rank them you can assume their best potential Please rank the top batsmen with their perceived averages. My ranking: 1. Bradman ----> 80 2. Sobers ----> 60 3. Richard ----> 58 Others: Tendulkar, Gavaskar, Lara, Chappell, Pollock, Hutton, Hammond, Headley, Hobbs, .... ----> 56 - 52 Any yes, wishing everyone a merry christmas and happy new year! :icflove:
ShahidAfridi Posted December 25, 2010 Posted December 25, 2010 Bradman 65 Sobers 60 Afridi 60 Sachin 55
zen Posted December 25, 2010 Author Posted December 25, 2010 Bradman 65 Sobers 60 Afridi 60 Sachin 55 We are not talking about bowling averages :P
ShahidAfridi Posted December 25, 2010 Posted December 25, 2010 We are not talking about bowling averages :P Yes your right There is no Ishant Sharma :haha:
Serani Posted December 25, 2010 Posted December 25, 2010 I you believe Afridi even has the talent to average 60 in tests then your a moron. Then we consider the fact he is mentally retarded.
Rajiv Posted December 26, 2010 Posted December 26, 2010 I you believe Afridi even has the talent to average 60 in tests then your a moron. Then we consider the fact he is mentally retarded. Depends on how many matches he plays, coz he can play 1, score a quick 60 and then retire -- oh wait..
Roshanrocks Posted December 26, 2010 Posted December 26, 2010 If all of them debut internationally at the age of 16 irrespective of how good they were, face the same opposition.... face serious career threatening injuries, play as much number of ODI's , T20's, play in the same team, have the same team mates, have the same practise bowlers, play for the same country, have third umpires, modern technology etc.... In tests Tendulkar 56 Sehwag 53 Bradman 52 Sobers 52 Ponting 48 Lara 48 Richards 46 I can make up any numbers i want cant i? :hmmm: And after lookin at Mohammad Ameer n Jaydev Unadkat I'd like to think not everyone can debut n click early.
zen Posted December 26, 2010 Author Posted December 26, 2010 In tests Tendulkar 56 Sehwag 53 Bradman 52 Sobers 52 Ponting 48 Lara 48 Richards 46 You only put 56 for Tendulkar! .... This is so disappointing as I expected anyone with a Sachin avatar or an username like "Sachin is whatever" to put in a lot more (like the Afridi fan has Afridi avg 60) :(( And also good to see that some folks think that Richards playing at his full potential would avg only 46 and that too 10 runs behind Tendulkar, who is also playing at his full potential!
