New Zealand v Bangladesh Test #2
-
i have a question.
I just stats-gurued the test team because i wanted to look at the averages (Ryder?! fucking hell)
I get Mark Richardson averaging 45.38 over 38 matches at #1, Glen Turner averaging 43.51 over 24
Sutcliffe would be 2nd at #1 with 44.96 from 15
At #2 i have Latham averaging 52 from from 31, some dude named dowling 49 from 10, and then Turner 49 from 15.
Every other one i can match up. Was the criteria for opening just the two highest averages opening? or did you actually use their batting order?

The first option. Average as an opener.

Henry Nicholls incredible efforts have made me completely forget Ryder and all the what ifs of his career.
This makes me happy.

well, that wasn't the task set us mr kiwipie. i fucking object. we didn't just treat the middle order as the middle order did we? Batting at 1 and batting at 2 is different.

Errr yes it was
"except now it is for ODIs - 1-11 of the players with the highest batting average in that position - minimum 20 games in that position"

@mariner4life please continue, unfounded or not

Next question - this will see us through to close of play
Name an NZ Test XI of the players with the highest batting average in each position in the batting order. Min requirements - 10 games in that batting position (according to what StatsGuru says).
You must name all 11. The person who gets the most players in the correct position (correct player in incorrect position does not count) wins - getting all 11 is very tough without cheating. (2 openers can be named in either order)
Go!
i heartily disagree your honour. You will note the list says
1
2
3Not
Openers

Get back to the ODI team - you still need
5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11
All of them played in ODIs in this century.
Oram fell down the batting order late in his career, I nominate him.
No Oram fell into the close but no cigar category
