Did Ravindra Jadeja Deserve the 2nd Most Valuable Test Player of the 21st Century accolade by Wisden?

Ravindra Jadeja was recently named the 2nd most valuable player of the 21st Century. Jadeja has done great for India in Tests. He alongside Ashwin has made India unbeatable at Home. But he has played a total of 16 away Tests only. That’s maybe also due to limited opportunities granted to him. But even then a player who has only played 16 away Tests and scored 663 Runs at average of 30.13 and Taken 56 Wickets at an average of 34.62 deserved to be called the 2nd Most Valuable Player of the 21st Century?
I have made a Test XI for the 21st Century.
My Criteria for selecting the XI.
For Batsmen
Minimum of 4000 Test Runs against the Top 8 Opposition and a Minimum of 2000 Away Test Runs against the Top 8 Opposition.
For Bowler

Evaluating ODI Batsmen Using Relative Strike Rates

Often any kind of discussion or comparison in sport automatically devolves into the "you can't compare different eras!" conclusion, which in limited overs cricket is probably even more prominent than elsewhere - the climate for a batsman today post-IPL, post-white ball swing, with huge bats and ramp shots and general pandemonium, would be impossible for a batsman in the 70s, 80s, or even the early part of this century to imagine. And the area where these differences are most highlighted is in strike rates, which simply put have risen exponentially. A cursory look at the stats will make you think all batsmen of the past were glorified Boycotts, nudging and prodding without any real flair or power. But that would be stupid. A possible workaround is instead of looking at the raw strike rates, to look at a batsman's strike rate in the context of their contemporaries.
Doing that is easy - You take the batsman's strike rate, you take the overall strike rate over the course of this batsman's career, and you divide the first number by the second. A figure greater than 1 implies they scored more freely than "expected", while a figure less than 1 implies they scored more restrictively than expected. The further away from 1 the more remarkable the strike rate, either positively or negatively.
For convenience and to make things a bit cleaner and slightly less nitpicky, I define a batsman's career as follows:
1 January "first year batting" - 31 December "final year batting"
Furthermore, since the primary motivation of this is for comparisons in all time XIs and such, I've decided to break things up into 3 roles: Openers, 3-4, 5-7. The basis of these designations came from glancing at the overall strike rate trends per individual batting position, but I admit they're crude and maybe even arbitrary. I'll also only consider a batsman's stats in their primary role, eg Tendulkar played all over the place initially but played the best and most significant part of his career as an opener, so only those stats are counted when comparing openers. A batsman can still be considered in more than one role, but the numbers will be accurately divided. The strike rates are of course also calculated according to each role, which helpfully excludes useless tailender data and allows us to see how a batsman plays in relation to the general demands of their position. To filter more, only those who've scored at least 1000 runs in their role are looked at.
To get an intuitive feel for a batsman's overall "effectiveness", I've taken a geometric mean of their batting average (A) and their relative strike rate (RS), ie sqrt(A*RS). Essentially with this metric, below 6 represents a fairly ineffective batsman, 6-7 a good to great batsman, 7-8 a world class batsman, and 8+ a truly special batsman.
The batsmen I've done this for are a mix of the top run scorers, and people who for some reason I thought this would be interesting. Sorting is done in order of the relative strike rate, but not everyone is included so expect to see some big gaps. I've looked at more people in the openers category to show a broad range of numbers representing different eras, and because it's what I looked at first and I got lazier afterwards.

Conclusions:
  • Before doing this, I expected AB, Viv, and Kohli to come out most impressively, and that's pretty much exactly what's happened. Viv's numbers are just astounding, the way he scored so much more prolifically and so much more freely than his peers borders on incomprehensible.
  • I'm realising I've really romanticised Jayawardene as a one day player in my head, despite his numbers being really unremarkable. Might not even qualify for an all time Sri Lanka ODI team.
  • Kallis looks like the most 'of his time' player as far as scoring rate is concerned.
  • I've got my issues with Faf as a test player, but we shouldn't forget just how incredible he is in white ball cricket, the numbers make him one of the absolute best ODI batsman of all time. Eoin Morgan similarly seems to get pigeonholed as some kind of specialist captain recently, but his batting is up there amongst the greats.

Shivnarine Chanderpaul 2845 40.64 73.4 76.08 0.9648 6.2617
Conclusions:
  • Afridi stands out here with by far the highest relative strike rate of any player in any role. Maybe if he were a few years younger, and subsequently his pretend age also a few years younger, while also not being as much of a prick, he could have been a more appreciated cricketer.
  • For current players, no surprise to see Buttler and Maxwell so high.
  • Not a huge sample size, but AB's numbers here are insane.
  • Andrew Symonds was too good a cricketer in all formats to have faded out the way he did.
So with that in mind, and also using some personal judgement, here's my rough attempt at an all time ODI top 7, not considering bowling and the balance of the side:
Jonny Bairstow (Tendulkar if you have a sample size issue)
Rohit Sharma
Virat Kohli
Viv Richards
AB de Villiers
Jos Buttler (wk)
Michael Bevan (Ben Stokes/Andrew Symonds if you want a more enthusiastic allrounder)
Problems:
  • The central assumption of relative strike rate is that scoring faster is desirable for all batsmen of all eras, which is a simplistic way of looking at things. With ODI sides for a long time just being copies of test sides, there wasn't necessarily that onus to play more aggressively, it's an issue of capability but also an issue of intention. So even with this adjustment older players are disadvantaged.
  • I've also not made any adjustments to averages over time, I've assumed that any batsman goes out with the intention of scoring as much as possible. However as we all know team scores have risen and so obviously individual scores have risen, batsmen now score more than their predecessors. So perhaps an adjustment is needed there.
  • The geometric mean method is very basic, unsophisticated. It's good for basic intuition, but still I think it's heavily biased towards bigger averages, so it depends in part on how each of us value one day batsmen. Would you rather have a Shai Hope or a Virender Sehwag? A Chanderpaul or a Maxwell?
  • My system also disadvantages players who are systematically promoted up the order in certain match situations, which is quite a frequent occurrence these days. Jos Buttler for instance has some of his best, most destructive numbers when playing in the top 4, yet those aren't counted.
  • The usual "big game" issue - none of this tells us about performances in world cup knockouts, home and away, against the biggest rivals, in front of the biggest crowds...
  • The ODI landscape has changed a lot through time, does the emergence of associate and other weaker nations distort things? Or is a hungry Afghanistan side in 2019 a bigger challenge than a bored test leftover England side in 1980? And not necessarily just when these weaker teams are opponents, more in how their results against each other would impact the era strike rates.
  • As I said before the 1-2/3-4/5-7 designations are far from perfect. In fact looking at the numbers, I found that while openers, 3-4, and 6-7 can be pretty much grouped together at least in the modern era, 5 stands out. But talking about a specialist number 5 still feels very odd to me, and I thought grouping it made more sense.
  • Another unaccounted for issue is the strength of a batsman's team. For instance it's easy to look at Tamim Iqbal's numbers and call him a poor opener, but he's required to put a higher price on his wicket than say Jason Roy is.
  • Players with stop-start career paths are given an unfair advantage. For instance someone who plays a random one off ODI in 2005 as a teenager, but then returns to play consistently from 2015-2020 will have their career calculated as 2005-2020 instead of 2015-2020, which will artificially inflate their relative strike rate.

A Statistical Analysis to Determine Team and Player of the Decade

I've seen a lot of opinion pieces lately, so I figured doing a pure stats dump as a team of the decade post would be appropriate. As part of this process players will be deemed to fill the following roles for the period 1 January 2010 to 31 December 2019:
These will be broken down further into the following:

Batsmen

Bowlers

As well as an additional role:
Why this mix? Well, personally this is the makeup of a team I'd pick if I were leading a team to facing a random side on a random group. That said, the intention is to present data in such a manner that if you wished to pick a team with a different makeup, you can do so in the comments section, to then be criticised for why you're wrong by someone else.
As to the notes above:
* A captain will be selected from the players selected, not as a specialist role. Data will be presented to help make an informed decision however.
† We're going for wicketkeeper batsman rather than a pure wicketkeeper, against my better judgement, because stats keeping for keepers has traditionally been utter garbage. Really, what I'll give you is the best keepers in terms of batting. This will crush my soul in many ways, but hey.
In terms of how the best will be picked:
As to why I've gone with that rating for bowlers? It servers two key purposes: 1, it doesn't disadvantage spinners as much (who tend to take more wickets per match, but have higher averages), 2, it values players who can carry the weight of their teams bowling efforts. I've had some people complain in the past that it would saturate, and some players would not be able to get high WPM figures due to teammates, but no team has ever averaged 20 wickets per match. Whether it's linear (ie the difference between 3 and 4 wickets per match is the same quality wise as 4 to 5) is up for debate, but for our purposes this should do.
Anyhow, onto eligibility. In essence, we want players that have played a sufficient amount in the decade, and we want players representative of the decade. For this reason, we'll go with:
Additionally, on being picked we can consider a range of different fractions of matches played. For arbitrary reasons, I'll go with 1/5, 2/5 and 3/5 of matches as the three possible ways of picking the lineup. For these, we'll calculate this from fraction of total available tests. This means that 3 possible lineups will be presented. Note, players under the 1/5 threshold will not be included on the lists given here.
Now, this has a few advantages, one is that it doesn't advantage or disadvantage players for playing for certain countries. It also means that when considering the side, people can go back and re-evaluate what they deem important for the team of the decade. This also means that lineups won't be cherry picking criteria on a player by player basis to just get in the players I like, like so many selectors this decade.
Additionally, z-scores will be given for each of the roles, ie how far from the average player in their sample they are. This is comparing players directly to the other eligible players in that role. These will be used to determine a player of the decade. For z-scores, however, number 3 and middle order batsmen will be merged, and players total runs will be considered for those considered there, while the sample their z-score will be calculated from will bat 1-7. The same goes for bowlers, but comparing to 1st to 5th bowlers. Note, these will be given within their roles, calculated from these rules.
Anyhow, onto the lists. Note, these versions are truncated, but the full versions can be found in the comments.

Captain

We have to consider which of the following players has been the best captain in order to pick a captain for this team. We'll list those available by Win/Loss ratio:
Player Matches W L D W/L
Williamson 30 16 8 6 2.00
Smith 34 18 10 6 1.80
Cook 59 24 22 13 1.09
Sangakkara 7 1 1 5 1.00
Shakib 13 2 11 0 0.18
Hence, from those selected, Williamson and Cook shall be the captains depending on fraction of matches required. Smith is not eligible for captaincy until March next year, and I'll keep that in mind even for this list.

Final Lineups

We can then construct the final lineups, ordering players 4-11 by batting average, to get the final lineups:
Number 1/5 2/5 3/5
1 Warner Warner Warner
2 Cook* Cook* Cook
3 Sangakkara Sangakkara Williamson*
4 Smith Smith Smith
5 Chanderpaul Chanderpaul de Villiers

7 Jadeja Jadeja Watling†
8 Ashwin Ashwin Ashwin
9 Cummins Steyn Philander
10 Steyn Rabada Steyn
11 Rabada Anderson Anderson

Player of the Decade

Finally, we can use the z-scores to determine a top 10, and hence a best player of the decade. Only their best z-score will be given, as well as their role and fraction of matches played.
Note, this will be a bit biased against openers, as they tend to average less than the rest of the batting order, but are being compared on the same terms.
Rank Player Available Matches Fraction Role z-score
1 KC Sangakkara (SL) 95 44 46.3% No 3 2.909
2 SPD Smith (AUS) 112 72 64.3% Batter 2.636

9 PJ Cummins (AUS) 112 29 25.9% Bowler 1.857
10 V Kohli (INDIA) 107 84 78.5% Batter 1.743
Which would make our player of the decade Kumar Sangakkara, if we're going with 1/5 or 2/5 standards that is. Otherwise, it's Steve Smith.

Who played the best in their 69th test?

Welcome to what will most probably be my last 69 related stats piece, I’ve had some fun, but I think, just like Alastair Cook walking off into the sunset, it’s time to say goodbye.
This is a continuation of my previous piece, which I strongly recommend you read before this one, or not... do whatever you want I’m not your mother.
There have been 152 players who have played at least 69 test matches, and as I went through each scorecard, before any proper analysis, I assigned the player a rough score out of 5 for their performance in their 69th test.
Preliminary score out of 5 No. Players
1 79 (52%)
2 46 (30.3%)
3 14 (9.2%)
4 11 (7.2%)
5 2 (1.3%)
As I suspected, in any given test, no how matter good you are, the player is more likely to fail than succeed. In the previous post I gave my bottom 5, so now I will give my top 10, and there is no better place to start than… number 3. So, let’s get star-… What? You think that any logical person should start at 10 and work down to 1? Well alright then, here’s number 10.
  1. Graeme Smith (SA). Test 1883 vs England in 2008. Score: 7 and 154*.
Graeme Smith was last in England in 2003, where he hit back-to-back double tons, and so had a lot of expectation on his name and his very impressive side, coming into the series. He was dismissed for 7, by Flintoff, and so after Paul Collingwood’s century in the third innings, South Africa needed to chase 281 to take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the series. Enter Graeme Smith with an incredible 154*, guiding his team from a very difficult place of 93-4. The next best was Mark Boucher’s 45* and they were going up against a strong England bowling line up that had a collective average of 31.21.
  1. Sir Richard Hadlee (NZ). Test 1072 vs West Indies in 1987. Score: 25*, Wickets: 6/50, 3/101
To say that the West Indies v New Zealand in 1987 was David v Goliath is an insult to the West Indies. They expected to come to Christchurch, smash the Kiwis and take the series 2-0. Cue 100 all out against a combined top6 average of 43.23, thanks to exceptional bowling by Hadlee and Chatfield. Hadlee the aggressor with 6 wickets at 4rpo, while Chatfield kept it tight and pounced the odd wicket here and there with 4 wickets at 1.66rpo. Hadlee also followed this up with a breezy 25*, before taking 3 scalps including Greenidge, Richardson and Marshall (the top scorer) in the second innings, as New Zealand squared the series 1-1.
  1. Martin Crowe (NZ). Test 1261 vs England in 1994. Score: 142 and 9
The early 90s was a strange period for New Zealand, it was after the great Sir Richard Hadlee had departed and before Stephen Fleming would take the captaincy and mould a very good side, but they still had Martin Crowe, and how. In the second test at Lord’s after going 1-0 down, Crowe stamped his authority in a majestic 142, which he later regarded as his purest. Very high praise for one of the most aesthetically pleasing batsmen the game has ever seen. He took his side to 461 against a reasonable English attack but could only contribute 9 in the second innings as the match was drawn. Nash took the MOTM for his 11 wickets, but Crowe’s masterpiece presented at the Home of Cricket that lived long in the memory.
  1. Carl Hooper (WI). Test 1398 vs England in 1998. Score: 1 and 94*, Wickets: 1/14, 0/33.
West Indies in 1998 had some great players, but they were not a great team. After their loss against Australia in 1995, they became a shadow of their former self, and players like Hooper; a man who could kind of bat and kind of bowl was one of their senior men. He was bowled for just 1 in the first innings, as West Indies crashed to 191, and later England set West Indies 282 in the fourth innings, in a game where the highest score was 258… by England. Hooper was dogged in his 94* and took West Indies over the line with Kenny Benjamin for company 7 wickets down against a good bowling line up with a collective average of 31.12. Hooper sneaks into 7th with his unrelenting tight bowling, he had match figures of 28-11-47-1.
  1. Ramnaresh Sarwan (WI). Test 1872 vs Sri Lanka in 2008. Score: 57 and 102.
West Indies were not a great side at this time either, and Sarwan top scored in both innings to make up for it and take the win. He made 57 in a WI total of 294 in the second innings, and then chasing 253 in the fourth innings, he made a mockery of the target in the company of Chanderpaul. He was up against two greats in Murali and Vaas and the collective bowling average for the SL side was a stupendous 25.67. For a man who averaged below 40 at that point, this was a serious achievement.
  1. Virat Kohli (Ind). Test 2316 vs England in 2018. Score: 97 and 103.
I think all of Cricket could tell you how this one went. After being battered by the smiling assassin Chris Woakes at Lords, India were 2-0 down after 2, but their captain was showing some form. In the first innings, he made 97 and set up India’s total of 329, alas a hundred was not to be. No, no, Virat Kohli doesn’t score fifties… he scores hundreds and in the third innings after Hardik skittled England, Kohli scored 103, his second hundred of the tour. India won and Kohli took the richly deserved MOTM award, especially considering he scored 200 match runs against Anderson, Broad and Woakes in their pump on green seaming pitches. Bravo Sir, bravo.
  1. Greg Chappell (Aus). Test 910 vs Pakistan in 1981. Score: 201, Wickets: 1/6
Before Imran Khan’s captaincy, Pakistan were not a great side. They only scored 291 in the first innings were Chappell gave himself what can only be described as a cheeky 3 over spell and managed to knock over opener Mohsin Khan. In the second innings he scored an imperious 201, where no one else managed over 75 against a bowling line up that averaged a very decent 31.56, and Australia won the test by 10 wickets. Pakistan were there to be beaten, but Chappell well and truly conquered them, as Australia took an unassailable 2-0 lead in the series.
  1. Kumar Sangakkara (SL). Test 1851 vs England in 2007. Score: 92 and 152.
Why Kumar, why oh why did you hold onto the gloves for so long. A year or so after relinquishing wicketkeeping responsibilities for good, Sanga played a gem of an innings in compiling 92, in a total of 188, where after HAPW Jayawardene’s 51, the next best was just 12 by Chaminda Vaas. In the third innings, Sri Lanka were battling against nearly a three-figure deficit, when Sanga played another incredible innings. If the 1st innings was a gem, this was a diamond, taking Sri Lanka to an incredible position, where again the next best score was only 78. Sri Lanka had no right to win that test, but then again Kumar Sangakkara had no right to be that good.
  1. Sir Ian Botham. Test 990 vs West indies in 1984. Score: 30 and 81, Wickets: 8/103 and 0/117
Botham is rightly attributed with Legend status, but if you look at his career numbers: Batting and Bowling average of 33.54 and 28.40, they’re good but not legendary. Sir Ian was a shadow of himself in the latter half of the 1980s, and this series and match against West Indies was probably his last Hoorah... but what a match it was. He scored 30 in the first innings, as England compiled 286 and then scythed through against arguably the greatest batting line up in history with a combined top6 average of 46.59 at the time, taking all the top 6 wickets in an incredible 8/103. But Beefy didn’t stop there and against a seriously excellent bowling line up (combined average of 26.21) scored 81 with a SR above 70. I won’t go into the fourth innings, but I will say if it wasn’t for Greenidge, this would sit on top of the tree with Headingly 81. Talk to anyone about Sir Ian, and they will always say the same thing “He was so much more than just his stats”.
  1. Nathan Lyon (Aus). Test 2273 vs Bangladesh in 2017. Wickets: 7/94, 6/60.
Nathan Lyon. Garry. When he is on form, he is on form, ask anyone and in 2017 he was at his pinnacle. Everything he touched turned to gold. Bangladesh in 2017 at home were a seriously good side, make no mistake and their combined top6 average of 37.38 proves that. They beat Australia for the first time ever in the first test and were looking to take the second as well. Garry took the first four wickets all LBW in the first innings and then removed the two set batsmen in Rahim and Rahmann as well. Australia managed to eke out a 72-run lead, and Garry got to work again, taking 6/60 and routing Bangladesh for 157, leaving only 87 to chase. 13 wickets in the match… Nice Garry.
It was always going to be Garry. I wanted it to be Botham or Sanga or Chappell, but no it was always going to be Garry. He doesn’t have the reputation of the others, but he has something else, a cult following that would make Elvis Presley turn in his grave, a knack to meme himself to the top, Garry always finds a way, and there was no way he wouldn’t be my number 1, his performance was just too good. So congratulations, you are the 69 champion, but more importantly, the people's champion.
There you have my top 10, please feel free to let me know why I’m wrong in the comments, and thanks for reading, not only this piece, but all my ‘69’ pieces, I am very grateful.

Players who can win the Player of the Tournament award-Cricket World Cup 2019

The 2019 World Linke has reached the last day of its league stages and we have our four semi-finalists - Australia, India, England, and New Zealand. India and Australia are playing their last league matches on Saturday and that will decide who tops the league and, more importantly, avoids an in-form England in the semi-finals.
Australia, who are currently the table-toppers, have been led by their two openers - Aaron Finch and David Warner with the bat and Mitchel Starc with the ball. Warner and Finch have complemented each other perfectly and have consistently given good starts. Steven Smith has played some crucial innings in the middle and the finisher has been the vice-captain - Alex Carey. Starc has been outstanding with the ball, picking up 24 wickets, and has an able partner in Pat Cummins for support.
1)- Rohit Sharma
India vice-captain Rohit Sharma has had an outstanding World Cup. He has already scored four hundred, which is a record for most hundreds in a single edition of the Cup that he now jointly holds with the Sri Lankan great Kumar Sangakkara, and has enough matches to go one better.
Sharma has scored 544 runs at an average of 90 odd. He is the only the second Indian batsmen after Sachin Tendulkar to have scored more than 500 runs in a single World Cup. The Mumbai batsman has been slightly circumspect at the start, seen off the new ball and then attacked as the going got easier. He has been lethal when given anything short and has hit many sixes in the square leg region with the pull shot.
2)- Mitchell Starc
Australia came into this World Cup with some confidence on the back of series victories against India and Pakistan. However, even the most ardent Australia fan would not have thought that they would be potential table-toppers after the league stage. One of the key reasons for that has been Mitchell Starc.
Starc has picked up 24 wickets in eight matches and has been lethal at all stages of the game. His yorkers have been a nightmare to all batsmen and the ball he bowled to Ben Stokes, in a famous win over England, will go down as one of the balls of the tournament. The left-arm has provided wickets at crucial stages of the game and has bailed Australia out of trouble on many occasions, most notably in the game against the West Indies.
3)- Shakib Al Hasan
The 1999 World Cup had Lance Klusener. The 2011 World Cup had Yuvraj Singh. Now, the 2019 World Cup has an all-round performance which should be right up there with Klusener and Yuvraj. That series of performances has bee provided by Shakib Al Hasan.
Shakib has come of age in this World cup, scoring a mammoth 606 runs at an average of 87. He has also taken 11 wickets at an economy rate of 5.39. To put things into perspective - Klausner had scored 281 runs and picked up 17 wickets in '99 and Yuvraj scored 362 runs and picked up 15 wickets in his dream World Cup in 2011. Both Klausner and Yuvraj won the Player of the Tournament award and Shakib has a strong case to win it this year.

England lineup predictions for Thursday

Hey everyone, thought it'd be a good idea to have a wee chat about how England are going to line up on Thursday. Would be cool if people could submit what they want and what they think, but either or is fine.
Was going to do another score prediction thread but since I'd backed James Vince to be England's top run scorer in the ODI series' thought I'd best not embarrass myself anymore.
Anyway, launching right in I think there are eight guaranteed starts for Thursday; Cook, Root, Stokes, Bairstow, Broad, Woakes, Ali and Rashid.
That leaves eight players fighting for three places, however I think based on Paul Farbrace's comments we can safely rule out Jos Buttler. Which leaves seven (3 batsmen and 4 bowlers):
Haseeb Hameed (opener): 19 year old who had the traditionalists melting this year with his high elbow and low strike rate. 27 innings, 1198 runs, 4 centuries and 7 halves in the County Championship. Youngest Lancastrian to cross the 1000 run barrier and be given his county cap. Anyone paying close attention to the English youth setup has known about this guy for 2/3 years and it was almost a guarantee he would play test cricket for England. Some will argue that it's a bit soon whereas others will point out England's struggles to select a regular opener in four years and the possibility of a ready made player waiting. There has been a lot of time and money invested in Hameed and that alone guarantees he will receive his chance at some point (plus more than likely a few more should he fail), the question is; is an away tour to the SC the best place to blood him?
Ben Duckett (openemiddle order): Both PCA player and young player of the year. 24 innings, 1338 runs, 4 centuries and 5 halves in the County Championship last year. Once crossing the big ton he continued until at least 150 each time and crossed the double twice, and was only denied a certain triple by a two day rain washout. He hammered a double against Sri Lanka A for the Lions too and crossed over 2000 runs in all formats last year. All done at a strike rate never dipping below 75%. His appetite for runs seems insatiable, so surely he must be picked? Weirdly he seems the most likely to miss out. Up until the end of last year he batted 5 and kept wicket for Northamptonshire before being shoved up to open due to a shortness of players. He batted 3 for England in the ODI series and it appears the pressing issue for Duckett is an uncertainty on where to play him.
Gary Ballance (middle order): Ah, Gaz. It's not been a fun 18 months for Ballance. In the last calendar year he recorded 32 innings, 975 runs, 2 centuries and 5 halves in all first class cricket. Not a great return for the man who as recent as 2014 was hailed as the future of England's batting order. Ballance's troubles last summer have been well documented and bear little going over again, but perhaps here we can focus briefly on his talents. His hand-eye co-ordination is insanely good, he is patient, gritty and plays excellently off the back foot. All qualities which are pretty necessary for playing spin. Questions over his technique are abundant and relevant. The man who endured a meteoric rise in test cricket, averaging over 50 by the end of summer 2014, was seemingly the answer to England's great Jonathan Trott question. Since then he has floundered, flustered and had his stance picked apart more than any other English batsman. His test average has since dropped to 43 and the runs are not coming freely anymore. It seems for Gary England may be arriving at a very pivotal stick or twist point in his career.
Steven Finn (rafm): A struggling year for Finn. Started 2016 as comfortably England's third choice paceman behind Jimmy and Broad but ends it perhaps only being fourth because of Mark Wood's injury troubles. On his day he is a bowler of menace, intimidation, swing, bounce and (that elusive English skill) pace. Off his day though he is awkward, erratic and expensive. Finn has endured a wildly back and forth test career, ranging from being labelled unselectable to unplayable in 18 months. Steven is undoubtedly a confidence player, when he's firing he's arguably England's most dangerous bowler but when the wickets aren't coming and the runs are leaking his head goes down and you can visibly observe the belief leaving him. At the moment the problem for England is he is somewhere in the middle. He had a decidedly average FC record last year of 423 overs for 1461 runs and only 43 wickets.
Jake Ball (rafm): 2016 will be remembered as Ball's breakout year undoubtedly. Spent the winter with the Lions and added a decent 4/5mph to his bowling which, along with his already prodigious ability to swing the ball both ways and use the seam to get the ball moving off the pitch, made him the best bowler (according to the great man himself) that Kumar Sangakkara faced last year in the County Championship. His return of 378 FC overs bowled for 1221 runs and 50 wickets is mightily impressive and he went well in his debut test on a flat Lords' pitch, even if his numbers may not back that up. He has certainly done his chances the world of good after his match winning performance in the first ODI, becoming the only English player to land a five-for on debut.
The next two players chances will come down to England's likelihood to play three spinners. England traditionally tour the SC with four seamers (one or two all-rounders) and two spinners. They tried three spinners last year in the third Pakistan test and were destroyed. Do they do it again here remembering the risk and the likelihood of being outplayed by pitting average or inexperienced spinners against batsmen who have grew up on dustbowls? Or do they show faith in those to deliver when they are given favourable circumstances (the buzz word for spinners this year). Let's take a look at the two choices to join Moeen and Rashid.
Zafar Ansari (lao): 237 overs bowled for 691 runs and 22 wickets. Endured an unlucky end to the 2015 season when directly upon hearing of his callup to the test team for the tour of Pakistan injured himself fielding at mid-off and found himself missing not only the tail end of last year but the start of this season too. One thing I'm anticipating reading in the comments is Ansari's use as an allrounder but feel it's worth pointing out that the player himself has admitted to struggling more with his batting than his bowling since his return. He scored only 2 halves in 17 innings this year and registed less than 500 runs. If he plays he should, and surely will, bat below Woakes at 8/9. As a left hander he obviously offers the bonus of turning the ball away from the batsman too. He has fairly tended to take his wickets in clumps this year and has shown enough control to be inexpensive.
Gareth Batty (raob): Must admit, when I first had the idea to write this thread I wasn't even going to include Batty until I read cricinfo's piece this afternoon. He last played test cricket for England in 2005, a year before I started watching so my experience of him is limited. He averages 66 and only claimed 11 wickets in 232 overs but since then according to certain sources, not least Ian Bell and (I think) George Dobell, has gone on to become England's best turner of the ball. Last year he bowled 444 County Championship overs for 1325 runs and 41 wickets. The player himself is not short of confidence and claims he has continued to improve over the years and is currently bowling as good as he ever did. Selected surely as much for his experience and leadership as his talent with the ball, Batty has been immeasurably influential leading Surrey from Division 2 champions in 2015 to Division 1 safety this year, plus earning tremendous plaudits and respect for the way he guided the young players through the death of youth talent Tom Maynard.
Anyway, that's the players. Get your fill in and let me know what you think. For my thoughts I want England to lineup:
  1. Cook (c)
  2. Duckett
  3. Ballance
  4. Root
  5. Bairstow
  6. Stokes
  7. Moeen
  8. Woakes
  9. Rashid
  10. Broad
  11. Ball
I think though what we will see is
  1. Cook
  2. Hameed
  3. Root
  4. Ballance
  5. Moeen
  6. Stokes
  7. Bairstow
  8. Woakes
  9. Rashid
  10. Broad
  11. Ball

Stat Analysis - How many players have scored test centuries against every Test nation IN every Test nation?

In the wake of Kane Williamson being the 13th man to score Test centuries against every Test nation, I decided to investigate a question posed by seekandknow:
I wonder how many other cricketers have scored centuries against all the other test playing nations while batting away from home? Will Kane be the first?
So I took the list of men to have scored Test centuries against every Test nation and investigated in a bit more depth:
So, the only man with test centuries in every test playing country is Rahul Dravid. A few on this list were unable to play in every country for whatever reason, while others simply struggled in particular countries. Sri Lanka and South Africa are the most common bogey countries for those in this list.
Williamson has a chance to join Rahul Dravid as the 2nd man to have scored away centuries against every country - Younis Khan does also when Pakistan travel to Australia in December. However it could be argued that Kane may never truly do so, if he never gets the chance to play in Pakistan. In saying that, he has 192 in the UAE against Pakistan, a place Dravid never played (for obvious reasons).
Thanks for reading if you did, hopefully it is interesting. It was a bit thrown together, so apologies if it is a bit basic or messy.
