Believe me, I used to absolutely love "Chaplin" , "Laurrel and Hardy","He Man" series, when i was aged around 10. At the time I wasnt able choose between him and He Man.... Also at the time I had no clue why some grown ups around me liked Bollywood movie "Sholay" and "Nadiia ke Par" Good to know that Super Humans managed to freeze the time co ordinates of their live

@Rett, I am tempted to ask below question Just because Its Christmas time, :giggle: What is Santa getting you this year?

[thongale]

Frame todays bowlers with that exact camera used to film the clips given by BossBhai. Then we'll come back to the discussion.

Cant u use a judgement based on how far behind the wicket keeper is standing? how many slips in place? Or WK were Supermans too

Using many of the fanatics points, I proved that like ten > don, Rowan > Charlie .... And still you are complaining :dontknow:

Read post #79/80 ......... Try to bring objectivity in discussion..... post 133

Come with some actual reasoning why Braddys Non Pro records should be compared to that of Pros.

Read post #79/80 ......... Try to bring objectivity in discussion..... post 133

So are you implying that your own reasoning is not objective? for example, look at Charlie's car and look at the cars Rowan drives. How can you extrapolate that Charlie would hv been able to drive Rowan's car? There is no such system available where we can figure that out :dontknow: Even though, we have evolved, it is not possible to put say someone driving a horse in 15th century into a time machine and make him drive a car in the 21st century ..... The rules of road have changed and we can't assume that the 15th century guy would hv evolved enough to be able to drive a car in 21st century, if he were in 21st century .... As I said there is no system available to measure that :P

Let other here decide upon ability to put argument objectively... Thanks for accepting that 15th century Basanti taangevaali however fast she would have driven at the time can not be best driver formula 1 has ever produced...... :two_thumbs_up:

[bulbul]

these are awsome logics...planned to use similer logics when my Yearly performance review coming up soon with my manager... thx guys :two_thumbs_up:

Which is why latest is the greatest :yay: The 15th century guy, if transported to present, would not not even know what an accelerator is, let alone drive a car .... Therefore, (ignoring evolution) he would be a massive fail in 21st century :hysterical: Which is why Ten > Don Rowan > Charlie See your objectivity makes so much sense :two_thumbs_up:

Just to be absolutely clear, You are also saying that Basantis record doesnt matter for the purpose of comparison.... IMO Whether Basanti when transported to present world will make to any of the F1 teams is different debate at all :hehe:

Ofc, why would Basanti's record matter :dontknow: ..... After all latest is the greatest :two_thumbs_up: On the other hand, the F1 driver, if transported back, would easily pawn Basanti even in horse racing ..... If you transported the f1 guy with his f1 car, he would still smoke Basanti, who would on her horse, even though there would be no Tarmac roads and gas to run the f1 car :P See this thread is beginning to make a lot of sense

[mishra]

Now that brings another question... Why f1 guy should travel time.... He doesnt needs to... Its friggin Basanti whom fans want to dig from the grave and make her run on F1 track

[Naaz-neesh]

bradman belongs in a different era (much like BC and AC), the cut-off should be pre-1975 WC and post-1975 World Cup. there isn't enough objective evidence besides stats to really make any decision on his quality. the game has evolved so much, example Bradman played in era of timeless tests where they had days off for rest between actual Test match days! this "there was bradman and then the rest" is absolute nonsense fed by aussie jingoism.

[Magneto]

^^^ What kind of era is AC? Air-conditioned era?

ref: post number 62 Actually the able bodied possible cricketing population number 9600 in England for a span of 20 years looks very high to me..... factors influencing could be A very high percentage of players did actaully graduated too.... War II casualities and impact There is definitely some thing which is bumping my numbers.... I am looking for number of clubs in the era.... CAn anyone help?

[FlopDulkar]

Don Bradman was not even a cricketer ' date='he was just a man with soota ( bat like thing used for washing up clothes in some places ) :P[/quote'] "Did you know that Sir DonaldÃÔ average in Test matches reached 50 with his 3rd innings, and stayed above 50 for the rest of his career?" What is Sachin's average? He is still dreading to get his 100th Hundred. Fail!

You are right, there is no need for that as the latest is to be considered as the greatest! .... Since he drives F1, it is understood that he could ride horses and do well in horse racing :P
