Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

See much earlier Cerra. I don’t entirely like the aesthetics of Sibley’s technique but the mechanics are great, at least to my eye.

On ITB vs Stokes, I suspect most people would have Stokes in a World Test XI, and a world ODI XI.

Not sure ITB could ever claim that (I may be wrong mind), always felt ITB was underwhelming at the shorter game.

Also, ODI’s in ITB’s era were not as different to the longer game as they are now, so excelling in both formats is an even bigger ask now.

>I think if you stuck to the years 1977-81, he'd be in ahead of peak Flintoff (2003-6?)

Tend to agree, although I don't think at the time I really appreciated that most of the best Australian and West Indian players were signed up by Kerry Packer for a couple of years of that period.

England in a good position here, although it looked a lot better at 70-odd for 4 than it does now.
