@cricinfo Lets stop discussing these mile stones.Complete non sense. How is 99 inferior to 100 ? that 1 run doesn't make difference.End of the day Root played a match winning innings.Thats great innings. Players slow down while neaing milestone..unnecessary pressure too. Affects team.

@Deep_km06 @McgHolicc They come for tests and ODIs. IPL fans are different in all places.

@SridharRavi90 There are many..something which comes immediately to my mind is நாயகன்.

@polimernews Thats their land..நம்ம யாரு அவைகளை விரட்டியடிக்க..Allow them to be free there. If they are there send people out.

@chiraggoyal2734 @cricbuzz Thats fine. Not questioning his performance. I am just questioning the method they have used to select. This is the team of IPL so all 11 selected will surely have impact performance like this.. I am just just asking how thats it.

[Raghavan @Raghava78978447]

@1sInto2s And Warne. This is basically from the year 2000- but still Mcgrath & Warne have good number of wkts..Lara had 6000 odd during this period

[Raghavan @Raghava78978447]

@RichKettle07 Bumrah ranked 15th in the list of players. Anderson 13th and Dale Steyn 8th are already ranked better than him. Murali - loading..

[Raghavan @Raghava78978447]

@CricCrazyJohns Spinner - Murali( from this list) Fast bowler - Dale Steyn.
No Warne or Mcgrath? Warne has 357 test wkts between 2000- 07. Mcgrath too has 297 test wkts and 200+ wkts in ODI

[Raghavan @Raghava78978447]

@ESPNcricinfo Balance 5- Kallis Murali Sachin Ponting & Virat.
Warne has picked 357 wkts between 2000-07. His name is missing. Mcgrath also has good number of wkts.

[Raghavan @Raghava78978447]

@CricCrazyJohns Check Kallis data from 2000( bcos this top 25 is for last 25 yrs)
From 2000 -
Tests 11440 Ave 58.67 Wkts 239( Sachin 10080 Ave 52.23 wkts 33)
ODI - 9029 Ave 45.60 wkts 217( Sachin 9855 runs Ave 46.71 & 76 wkts)
ESPNcricinfo honors is greatest player not batsman.Either way Kallis

[Raghavan @Raghava78978447]

@Rajiv1841 Check his data from 2000( bcos this top 25 is for last 25 yrs)
From 2000 -
Tests 11440 Ave 58.67 Wkts 239( Both Runs and ave more than Sachin)
ODI - 9029 Ave 45.60 wkts 217( Sachin 9855 runs 76 wkts)

[Raghavan @Raghava78978447]

@Rajiv1841 Mcgrath can also be in thay list. He has 297 test wkts and 240+ ODI wkts..but tough. My choice for number 1 is Kallis
From 2000 -
Tests 11440 Ave 58.67 Wkts 239
ODI - 9029 Ave 45.60 wkts 217

@cricketaakash Forget top scorer..pls check this IPL top 10 run scorers 8 are openers 1 number 3 and only Klassen is number 4. If you pick top 20 only 4 are out side top 3. 16 bat between 1-3. 11 are openers.

[Raghavan @Raghava78978447]

@cricketaakash The idea of Orange & Purple caps doesn't make any sense. In T20 league we are rewarding top run scorers. If you look at top 10 run scorers of this IPL 8 are openers one no 3 and only one is outside top 3. For purple cap bowlers get 4. Are wkts the only measure?Quality of wkts?
