Glad you mentioned gilly !

No Ponting though?

Averaged amazing overseas and against all lethal attacks. Played against top West Indian attacks from 80s to early 00s, equally good against spin, great on all kind of pitches, he was ranked world's number 1 all-rounder in both test and ODIs until back issues forced him to give up bowling, in terms of impact in winning matches for his team there is no player in the last 50 years who could match Steve Waugh. Only Viv's name can come to mind. Waugh won two ODI World cups for his country and had the world record wins in tests too.

@@Remen-tj3ph one of the all time legend..his knock of 120* vs SA in 1999 wc was probably the knock which laid the foundations for the INVINCIBLE AUSTRALIA

@@sudhanshumitra1989 definitely my friend, the attack SA had at the time was among the most lethal in cricket history and the match was crucial for Australia to survive in the world cup. No wonder the only man who rose to the occasion was Waugh. Bigger the stage bigger his performances were.

Their ERA was the best.....but now no team can dominate like them.....not even the new Australia.

@@olivertwist8292 that era did see cricket viewership and fan following on a whole different level which is incomparable but we also can't outrightly deny that in this era the gap between top notch teams and others finding themselves a little lagging than others is significantly very less as compared to the gap between teams say 20 years ago ,so that level of domination is impossible but we do England and India a little ahead of other teams that's why this Australian team often gets criticised coz ppl often compare to that great Australian team played under Waugh and Ponting .

This Steve Waugh & Ricky Ponting lead Oz team was outrageous...just class way above than other teams...

Doesn’t account take away from him about the bowlers being bad. Against good bowling attacks he prized his wicket and made life hard

@@anirudhanagarajan7530 yes he was very good against good bowling (eg Donald)

and many more situations when his team was in trouble. and yet for some reason there consistently have been a few critics (haters even) of Waugh.

Steve Smith should play at one down for better results against tough teams like INDIA, ENGLAND. Once Look at past results of Australian team.

Bradman

​@@smj6491have u ever seen Bradman play? 😂

@@vickyshukla5178 things happen regardless of if i see it happen or not. it would be ignorant to say it isnt bradman when donald bradman is the greatest statistical outlier in all sports ever.

Bradman, Benaud, Border, Waugh, Greg Chappell, Lillie, McGrath, Warne

and India didn't have bowlers like Prasad for him to feed on :)

@@20shourya I m an Indian....but even though your comment shows immense disrespect to the legacy of Steve Waugh...he was better test batsman than Ricky Ponting & even Steve Smith as far as impact is concerned....A batsman of Steve Waugh's mindset can even score hundred easily in front of Bumrah, Shami,Siraj,Ashwin & Jadeja...Steve Waugh has faced Bowlers of this quality throughout his entire career and ended up hitting 32 hundreds & 10k test runs...in simple if you wanna witness his impact see his innings of 120 not out vs SA in 1999 wc...u will understand why Steve Waugh was the most loved cricketer alongside Warne, McGrath & Gilchrist....

​@@20shouryaour current bowlers are good but Steve Waugh scored against likes of ambrose walsh Donald pollock Wasim Akram Waqar Younis even in today generation he will give tough fight to our team

Steve Waugh means Australian cricket

Why are they trolling Cummins? His mother is dying.

When you elect a leader like Modi as your PM and re-elect him, don’t expect the people of the country to be of the highest caliber or have any emotional intelligence.

I don’t count them as fans. People who go to troll players going through tough moments (especially everything with his mum), do not deserve the title of cricket fans

@@anirudhanagarajan7530 exactly. Furthermore, people who have nothing going on in their lives and have nothing to offer but hatred for another community or people cannot be expected to have any semblance of empathy bc they’re already dead from inside. Zombies.

@@taimurhuk543 More than Zombies, they have the emotional maturity of 5 year olds. In Wisden’s post celebrating Harry Brook, they are throwing their toys out the crib because they think it’s an attack on team India and it’s players that an English magazine is celebrating an English player. Again not everyone, small percentage of their population which makes so much noise

Adelaide I imagine? Short square boundaries

47.36 Average

Played that way his whole career and was over 50 avg in his prime and one of the best bats in the world. Didn't look pretty but chose a gameplan that was hard to compromise.

@@Shivian124 , right

Yeah bro i think you are leaving in the past

Posting these videos so that Indians can click and complain.

Cheer up mate it’s just a game 💁

I'd add Mark Taylor to that list.
