[Pykie]

Finally some serious quality.

I'll take the guy Barry Richards said is a fair bit better the Kallis, and on par with Sobers in his opinion, only the 7 tests obviously and probably one of the biggest losses to test cricket. But 1400 FC wickets @ 19, and 48 FC centuries is a fair indication......


Mike Procter.

Slax

 

[Carbine Chaos]

That is a great pick for a FC draft, Pykie!

Oh, wait...

Can you confirm if it is Protector or Richards you chose because I'll take the other one. World cricket was robbed the opportunity to see 3 of the greats play on the international scene together in Pollock, Procter & Richards.

Assuming you took Procter.

Barry Richards

Debuted in 1970.

Shit.

I'll take 'The Nose'

Great pick. I considered but really needed an opening bat.

Really sad that the calibre or Proctor Richards and Pollocks were cut down in their primes.

 

[Pykie]

That is a great pick for a FC draft, Pykie!

Oh, wait...

Meh, Procter is an all-time great.


I guess we'll just have to take him on his test figures then.

7 matches, 45 wickets @ 15.......


FWIW Don Bradman has Richards in his all-time XI from only 4 test matches....

From what I've heard and seen, I rate Richards very highly, but not Procter. Richards just stands out to me as an all-time great batsman, but Procter doesn't stand out as a batsman OR bowler... to me anyway...
