KL Rahul is a mystery wrapped in a puzzle inside an enigma. He has 9 away 💯 in 42 tests yet he averages under 35 outside India. Will he make his 10th today?
Gill’s record as captain is 10% of Bradman’s career record Gill 8 inns, 696 runs at 99.42, 3 💯 Don 80 inns, 6,996 runs at 99.94, 29 💯
Ben stokes has the same number of 💯 as Ian Botham now. He’s also the third man ever to score 7,000 runs and take 200 wickets in tests. No one has scored 7,000 runs and taken 300 wickets. Stokes needs 71 wickets to hit the 300 mark. Will he play 35 more tests?
In 25 years when the next great batsman is breaking Root’s world record, I can bet he will get the same hate from Root’s fans that Root is currently receiving from SRT fans. Every generation believes their time was the best. Every cricket zealot believes their idol is the…
Cricket fans are honestly weird. Why do they have to belittle Root by bringing Williamson into the conversation? Both are great batsmen. We’re lucky to watch both of them bat.
Two guys who would walk into all time test XIs of both 20th and 21st centuries. Shane Warne In 20th century: 84 M, 366 W at 26, 16 5Ws In 21st century: 61 M, 342 W at 25, 21 5Ws Sachin Tendulkar In 20th century: 79 M, 6,416 runs at 57, 24 💯 In 21st century: 121 M, 9,505…
Four great cricketers (Dravid, Root, Mahela, and Smith) have 10,000+ runs, 34+ 💯 and 200 catches. This amateur golfer made 10,000+ runs, scored 40+ 💯, took 250+ wickets and pounced 200 catches.
With the immense benefit that hindsight gives all of us, it would have been better to rest Bumrah for this and play him the last one. He’s India’s greatest quick, but his body isn’t up for back to back tests. It’s not a criticism. The downside of his electric action that makes…
Root vs 🇮🇳 at home 19M, 1,977 runs at 73, 9 💯 He loves batting at home against India.
Root in last 5 years has made more test runs than Jack Hobbs made in his career at a higher average with 6 more 💯. 60 Tests 5,550+ runs at 57 21 centuries Source: @d_ktalkballs
Root clearly has no idea why the crowd is celebrating a bloody single.
Is Cook the only non-great in the 10,000 club? Out of 15 players to do it, 13 average 50+. Jayawardene averages 49.84. Cook averages 46. He opened the batting in tough conditions, but his record falls short of the games greats.
India in England 2011: Number 1 team in the world, lost 4-0 2014: Young team led by MSD, lost 3-1 2018: Experienced team led by the best batsman in the world, lost 4-1 2021/22: Drew 2-2 after leading 2-1 2025: Best fast bowler in the world, final score line ?
Since Indian cricket zealots are talking about Bumrah’s poor performance with the new ball, he should let England make tons of runs until the next new ball is due. It’s impossible to keep Indian fanatics happy. They would have found problems with Don Bradman’s inability to score…
The last time India won a test series in England was way back in 2007 when India won a 3-test series 1-0 under Rahul Dravid. Rahul Dravid, despite being in torrid form, led India with imagination. He scored just 126 run at 25.20. It remains Dravid’s only poor series in England.…
People remember Keith Miller as an allrounder. However, he considered himself a batsman who could bowl. His FC batting average is 49. If we exclude his test numbers (37 batting average), his FC batting average becomes 52. He also took 497 FC wickets at 22.30. He’s truly a gold…
Most 5fer for cricketers with 10+ 💯 Botham 27 Sobers 6 Kallis & Stokes 5 Most 💯 for cricketers with 10+ 5fers Botham 14 Kapil 8 Imran, Vettori & Ashwin 6 Botham was in a different league when it came to match winning performances.
Ben stokes started his career as a hard hitting batsman and aggressive quick bowler. He then became a middle order batsman who took critical wickets. Now he’s a skilful pace bowler and a useful lower order batsman.
