Cricket Tragic Posted August 23, 2011 Posted August 23, 2011 4 batsmen and bowlers in the top 10 for England!
Moman211 Posted August 23, 2011 Author Posted August 23, 2011 i know man crazy! just goes to show how good the team has become from getting their ass handed to them by Windies to being number 1!
Trichromatic Posted August 23, 2011 Posted August 23, 2011 1. Ishant dropped by 5 places after a series suited best for pacers. :hmmm: 2. World bowling condition is pathetic.
Cricket Tragic Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 i know man crazy! just goes to show how good the team has become from getting their ass handed to them by Windies to being number 1! All their main bowlers are in the top 20 (Anderson, Swann, Tremlett, Bresnan, Broad and Finn). Onions is a damn good bowler as well but he can't get in the side.
Rahul Dravid Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 dravid will move up slowly but surely..... can't believe hes still down at 10 after his performances in England and Windies.
Mariyam Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 What is the time period for this rating? Last 12 months?
achilles Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 2 observations- 1. Dravid is ranked 10 despite 3 100s while Trott is 7th. 2. Swann is 3rd despite getting a backside treatment by the Indians.

luvablubba Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 2 observations- 1. Dravid is ranked 10 despite 3 100s while Trott is 7th. 2. Swann is 3rd despite getting a backside treatment by the Indians. Swann wiped the floor with you in last test, and previously wasnt needed to bowl many overs Trott was a machine before his injury
james Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 Swann wiped the floor with you in last test, and previously wasnt needed to bowl many overs Trott was a machine before his injury I wouldn't say he wiped the floor a bit of luck courtesy from the umpires and a bit of luck in that the players he got out were unfit, should not have been there and tail enders. He was carted around in all the other games and had to be taken off.

He was carted around in all the other games and had to be taken off. lol, no he did, 9 wickets in the match, 6 in one innings, they couldn't all be tail enders or unfit could they?! In fact bar one or two they were all top order batsmen! Sehwag/Sachin/Dravid/Raina/Gambhir. And the other tests were seamer pitches and your guys weren't around long enough for him to be actually needed, but i agree it was tough conditions for a spinner in those other tests and your guys did go after him for the few occasions he was on. Its not just about this series, he's proven to be the best spinner in the world at the moment. He's not Shane Warne but he's bloody good.

He bowled better than any of the Indian spinners even when he wasn't taking wickets.
Maundy Gregory Posted August 25, 2011 Posted August 25, 2011 2 observations- 1. Dravid is ranked 10 despite 3 100s while Trott is 7th. 2. Swann is 3rd despite getting a backside treatment by the Indians. 1 Observation: The ratings are measured over a period of time, not one series
ZodiaC Posted August 25, 2011 Posted August 25, 2011 Swann did just fine, he was below average in the first three, but came back brilliantly in the last test. So despite the non-flattering average, he did well. Dravid should be in Top 5 if he keeps on playing like this is Oz.
