Cricinfo becoming yet more ridiculous

http://www.cricinfo.com/magazine/content/story/450974.html

"While the debate about who has been the greatest batsman of all time gathers steam, discussion on who has been the most skilled cricketer of all time is misplaced. Has there been anyone like Sir Garfield Sobers? "

Ummmm?

There is NO debate.

Don Bradman 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th... 75th

And most skilled cricketer of all time... W G Grace... eft

No one can argue that DB was the best, well according to the record books anyway. Who knows how well he would have performed in this day and age.

Tell me more about why you think Grace is above Sobers as a skilled cricketer. Grace didn't even bowl ...

W G Grace basically invented over arm bowling.

He took 2809 wickets :>

Grace was a well known cheat and deserves as few accolades as possible.



gc.

But he revolutionised the game

That's what people forget

He introduced back foot play

Garry Sobers, for all his genius, didn't revolutionise the game
