[Bulldog Cricket]

Yea Barry Richards, Graeme Pollock and Jimmy Cook, unbelievable players who unfortunately only played a handfull of test matches. Just look at their first class stats.

Jimmy Cook hit over 7500 runs in 3 seasons at Somerset including 28 hundreds !!!!

Slightly above average then

Yea, just lloking at thier stats in Cric info now. Graeme Pollock had the best record av over 60 in the 20odd tests he played. Don Bradman said he was the best batsman he had ever seen......quite good then !!

lost genaration i often think that myself if i had gone to eton or harrow or for that fact any school how good i could have been.....lol

[roco]

Yeah you have to look at stats to a certain extent but slightly before me so take yours and the old mans word for it as best I have seen is either sachin or my favourite viv the destroyer never seen someone take apart top quality pace bowling consistently

[Bulldog Cricket]

Oh yea, now IVA.....my favourite by a mile. Jimmy Cook was a run machine but in the Hick/Gooch mold (but better) just churned runs out but perhaps not the most attractive.

IVA did everything with style. Different class.

Best I heard about viv was off micheal holding who said viv would hold every batting record going but he got to a hundred (usually quickly) then got bored would love to get bored smashing lillie and Thompson about ludicrous simply ludicrous

ok people!! i'm taking bets now
seriously good idea talisman, look forward to finding out who wins, i'm placing my bet with newbery i reckon, though Saf is my dark horse, they got great bats

[tim2000s]

duncan fearnley magnum
gunn moore maistrow

clear favourites

good match up newbery v duncan fearnley i suspect my magnum might lose because of the age of the crowd booo hooooo

To be fair, every Fearnley I have ever used has been a bit of a plank, whilst the Newbery's have just gone. And I grew up while Hick was using one, never understanding how it scored so many runs. May have been the difference in batsman quality though...

How coincidental is it that Tom (Ayrtek) owns a scat!

[peplow]

So its all only based on bats? or whole package?

[Talisman]

Bat, who would you have a bat from?

[peplow]

ahh cool ok

[Wills]

Peplow voting Lekka!
I would never have guessed that.

Mike can people vote on their own brands?

[Talisman]

Yes, why not? there will be no court case here or in Dallas to prevent it.....
