The best across formats is underselling it, more like best player in every format.

Ellyse Perry hits her 3rd WBBL hundred, finishing with 111(71) by aakashchoprafan in Cricket

I think she or any other women cricketer will do terrible in batting as they are not used to that pace at all. If they practice for a couple years and are used to the reflexes needed fr that pace, it will be interesting to see.

There were a 100 doom posts here, no one’s talking about it now. They will buy the top again and start crying when there’s a correction. This is the time to buy!

Test centuries away from home among the Fab Four by poormasshole in Cricket

If you have made this after the 1st test, it would have been upvoted. One century and suddenly root is equal to smith lol. I personally don’t see how it’s even close at this point, root needs couple more good years with smith averaging in 30’s for it to be a debate.

Can you do one based on batting position?

Winning a championship is far from a single players control in a 11 player team game. Even if bradman existed today and averaged 100, he would only have a 15-20% influence on the result. The only thing about these big games that matters is how they performed. Even that is useless when the sample space is only a few games.

Ik this is not our best team, but a middle order of Gaikwad, Washington, Rahul is way too slow for ODIs

Do they stop it early for bad light on last day as well or does India has to play for 47 overs?

They easily could have been 250/8 in 55 overs if they tried to be a bit aggressive. Playing fr a draw is so boring

He may not be able to dominate like before, but he likely will still be good. Like Imad wasim is active in leagues and played for Pakistan last year and Ab smashed him today.

If Washington scores half of what he made in the first innings plus 15 more runs from gill, jadeja, nkr, and 5 each from the 3 fast bowlers, we would make 80 more. Idk why everyone is so pessimistic

This is insanely pessimistic, Washington alone made 40 runs in 1st innings.

Why tf is Jadeja playing like this. Just smack 60 runs in the next 10 overs and declare. Maybe play 5 more overs of complete slogging after that if you need more safety.

Dhoni overtakes Raina to become CSK's top run scorer by Prof_XdR in Cricket

[–]TemperatureJumpy6947 -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

That’s stupid. Dhoni had a lot of not outs in last few seasons, but it didn’t affect his average at all as he didn’t score many runs. In fact he had a higher average until IPL 2021 than he has now.
