I was inspired by a Reddit thread I saw, and I wanted to stimulate debate here:
Ricky Ponting from 2002-2006
57 matches
99 innings
Average of 72.25
6,141 runs
24 centuries
21 fifties
Steven Smith 2013-2019
56 matches
100 innings
Average of 73.52
6,250 runs
26 centuries
21 fifties
Imo, Smith gets the nod; he missed plenty of time on the pitch, and is still putting up insane numbers.
But Punter was a brilliant cricketer, and his numbers are absolutely legendary.
