Don’t take this the wrong way, but do you use drugs?Knock em over (!!!) with them leading by no more than 120.
Post 550 and leave em chasing over 400 to win.
Simples; win by 270!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The three English all rounders are much of a muchness.
Botham at his peak was a better bowler than the other two. Early in his career absolutely world class..
Flintoff was capable of extraordinary spells as is Stokes.
I think Stokes is a better batsman than Botham as he can tough it out. Although Botham batted a lot against some of the finest bowlers of all time.
Having said all that Imran Khan had truly world class bowling stats and a higher batting average than these 3.
Whilst Kallis averaged 55 with the bat and took nearly 300 wickets
Imran and Hadlee are all time great fast bowlers. Their batting was secondary.Kallis always seemed to just pass under the radar.
When I first watched cricket, there were excellent all-rounders in many countries - Kapil Dev, Richard Hadlee, Imran.
Strange that I don't recall an Aussie allrounder at the time.
I agree that Botham was above Flintoff and Stokes. The point about the opposition is a good one - there isn't much like the West Indian attack of the time, and the Aussies had Lillee.
