Just to show how tough batting at 3 is over a test career.
how Kane stacks up against the best of all time..I slightly changed the query to sort by avg with a minimum of 50 innings

Look at that, Sanga ahead of Lara, and no sign of Tendulkar who was hiding away behind Dravid like a pussy.

Lara faced better bowlers. Way better.
Sir IVA Richards batted as low as six late in his career which I always found a bit odd.

A lot of tests against the Bangles. But still an amazing record

If Kane's stats were to exactly match those of the last 4 years (looking back from today) - in 8 years time he would be 34 and have
137 tests
45 hundreds
61 fifties
12742 runs
57.92 averageChrist on a bike....how amazing is that?
That's an Aussie great record right there....

So who wants to give a wrap up of our summer of cricket? Do the boys get a pass mark?

Mark Geenty rated the players for the SA series.
I'd say test series wins over the Bangles and Pakistan, and regaining the Chappell-Hadlee would have to get a B. The SA series was close but in the end they won both the tests and ODIs. The focus now is on white ball cricket as there are only 13 tests to be played in the next 28 months (compared to 14 tests in the last 8 months).

57.92 averageHaha, is that the ultimate kiss of death or what. If his form slumps in the next series or worse he goes down with a career threatening injury then we know who to blame....

Hey I'm just a humble stats man! At least I didn't stretch until he's as old as Misbah and getting close to his 100 test hundreds ........
