what do u mean that we need to post the players stats

 

[Saltires]

ive posted the career test avgs for my squad - but if this is based on averages then the more recent players are at a serious advantage (excepting a few special cases)

I think that is mostly canceled out by the current bowling averages (again apart from special cases).

Higher batting averages mean higher bowling averages (apart from cases like Pollock, McGrath, Muralitharan), much the same as the lower bowling averages in the past will give some with high batting averages still (Bradman, Pollock, Headley).
