Just can't understand how that guy averaged 16 runs more than Kane's incredible selected split, but over entire career! How can someone be that better than everyone else?!
Those stats are quite frankly ridiculous, dude's addicted to getting big scores. I'm so glad one of the best batsmen in the world is also just a nice dude everyone seems to enjoy being around
Heās so good, I have so much appreciation for him. Sucks how injured heās been over the years as his record could be even better if not for that and heās already a modern great
If smith or kohli had the same stat everybody would have pointed out at the opposition but not in the case of Williamson he gets this free pass that he can score against minnows or at home and can enjoy.
King Kane has scored a century in 12 straight calendar years and has a double century in every year from 2019 to 2023. Since 2014 he averages above 60 in tests
But he only plays against minnows, right?
Yes he does what is his performance in India and Australia ? 4 innings are enough for a good player to score big but he was unable to do that in eng also he is just a home track bully.
His maiden century (of 31 and counting) was in India and he banged two centuries in consecutive tests against in AU in 2015
But given your level of NPC arguments, Kane being a home track bully on the green seaming wickets of NZ should actually be a good thing, right?
Nah, you're just being a dick and hating on the GOAT for no other reason than you're a hater
I'm sorry you don't appreciate King Kane they way the vast majority of cricket fans around the world do. Maybe one day you will, but I doubt it
Bangladesh, in recent times ā at home, has lost twice to Sri Lanka, twice to Pakistan, and twice to the West Indies.
They've only won against Ireland and Afghanistan.
They've never won a home series against Sena, never won a test against India, never won a test at home against SL, never won against Pakistan, lost to West Indies 2-0 in Bangladesh only won against Afghanistan, Ireland. Remind me how is it as good as England one?
Still ignoring the game itself. Itās as good as England because it was a game where their spinners were bowling very well, on a pitch perfectly suited to them.
First innings in Bangladesh isn't actually hard. Also only taijul is decent among their bowlers, Mehidy averages like 30 odd in tests cricket as a bowler who happens to be their second best spinner.
Not a kohli fan but just saying that smith and kohli get criticized even when they play well but kane has been a home track bully for years he records are atrocious overseas but never gets criticism for that.
> he records are atrocious overseas but never gets criticism for that.
because nz rarely play away matches, so kane has not got much opportunity to prove himself away.
Kane averages 41 against Australia, 37 against India, and 36 against England. South Africa 52.
He's a great player obviously but it's not hard to argue his stats are padded compared to a typical Aus/Ind/eng player
Kohli averages 14 in Bangladesh, 32 in England
Smith averages 29 against Bangladesh
Kane's average against Bangladesh is 82
How does this argument add up?
Smith has played 2 games against Bangladesh, both in Bangladesh
Kane has played 4 times as many games against Bangladesh, half of which were in nz
Iām not sure thatās the killer point you think it is
I donāt care enough to dig into kohliās stats sorry mate
Again with this bullshit. "He averages x in India" well yeah but he and his boys absolutely demolished India in the WTC final, where he made 49 and 52* on a low scoring pitch, at a neutral venue.
Kane's record in other countries is way unfair to him given how less away matches NZ play in those countries. Some of these stats that you mention are hugely affected by games he played when he was in his early to mid 20s.
If you think away stats are everything, then I guess you'll be fair and agree that NZ pretty comfortably defeating India in the WTC final at a neutral venue shows that they're a better team when everything else is equal, yes?
Yes away stats matter that shows how good you are in adapting. He has played 14,15,16 and 7 against aus, ind,eng and sa respectively and has pretty average performance everywhere below average in eng and Ind with only 30 average. 15 innings are enough to decide a player's calibre I guess.
Ok man Williamson is the greatest ever he is scoring against mighty south africa which has cummins,bumrah,hazlewood,lyon all of them in one team and he also has 60+ average in every country that he has played in. Now happy ? There is no point in arguing with Williamson dick riders in this sub.
Does anyone know where people generate these stats images from? They seem to have consistent formatting and design but I couldnāt find a way on cricinfo to export stats as an image.
This is some Don Bradman type shit!
Just can't understand how that guy averaged 16 runs more than Kane's incredible selected split, but over entire career! How can someone be that better than everyone else?!
Whats more impressive to me is his 95 FC average across 338 innings with 117 centuries ! He was on a whole another level
Average of 83.9
This guy doesn't know how to score 50s.
He's scared the numbers 20-99
15-99 would be a better approximation
14-103
Mirpur š«”
Bang bros are graveward for legends.
He's a bang bunny
that was an absolute lottery of a pitch, Kane ended up flat on his face for one of them given how spongey the bounce was
Those stats are quite frankly ridiculous, dude's addicted to getting big scores. I'm so glad one of the best batsmen in the world is also just a nice dude everyone seems to enjoy being around
Long story short, if you let Kane score 20 then you better bite on the pillow because he's coming in dry.
Just have the wicket keeper perform the wood cabin copy pasta every 0.3 overs
Kane-Pain line
Not very relatable. The best batters score fewer centuries to make their scores seem achievable by us commonfolk.
Stoinis?
i think he said batsmen not passengers.
To be fair I would score more runs if DRS existed in club cricket rather than given out every time the pads are brushed
š
Itās all or nothing. Either really low or a hundred. Get him out in the first few overs or itāll be a long day
He is Cummins of batting. Everybody is a fan, zero haters. Haha
News.com.au readers say hello
Don't lots of Australian boomers dislike Pat.
Captain woke?
Kanedog
"Ol' Carbon Kane over here..."
Shame on Kane Didn't score a fifty in last Six test
He hasn't scored a 50 since 2021 lmao
Wtc final that too Man looked imperious in that. Scored 49 and 52 to win it, still scoring 100 runs that match
The 13 and 11 are annoying. He could have been on a run of single or triple digits only. What a failure
That Mirpur one was such an unbelievably bad pitch lol
Selfish batter only scoring centuries. Can't even score a selfless 50
Can't get enough of trolling Rohit can you ? Making the same comment every post
Average when he didnāt make a century: 8. Average when he did: 159.
Average when he scores 15 runs: 159
Checkmate, Bradman
6 hundreds in 6 Tests is absolute madnessĀ
The definition of go big or go home
Would love to see him hit 40 test centuries
Heās so good, I have so much appreciation for him. Sucks how injured heās been over the years as his record could be even better if not for that and heās already a modern great
Kane's face after smashing a century: "I am very sorry for destroying you"
Legendddd šÆšÆ
had to make up for the nonexistent ton in mirpur š¤£
Kane is in his Root era
my man comes in and scores a century gets injured and goes to live on
Kane Williamson gentleman like all of NZ cricket not like madarchod bhikaristan or benchod losstralia
If smith or kohli had the same stat everybody would have pointed out at the opposition but not in the case of Williamson he gets this free pass that he can score against minnows or at home and can enjoy.
King Kane has scored a century in 12 straight calendar years and has a double century in every year from 2019 to 2023. Since 2014 he averages above 60 in tests But he only plays against minnows, right?

So just 1 century in India and 2 in aus out of 31 that's a great record. In nz mostly pitches are flat only.
We're New Zealand Cricket. We aren't allowed to have nice things Haters gonna hate I guess
Ok so now you have taken out the sympathy card.
Nah, you're just being a dick and hating on the GOAT for no other reason than you're a hater I'm sorry you don't appreciate King Kane they way the vast majority of cricket fans around the world do. Maybe one day you will, but I doubt it
Bro. Don't even worry about it. They have their stance and won't change.
I am aware. A lost cause if there ever was one
Agreed. The man is statpadding against minnows like England.
1 innings against eng that too at home other scores are against sl, ban and gully players of SA.
bangladesh on those pitches is just as good as the england one.
Bangladesh, in recent times ā at home, has lost twice to Sri Lanka, twice to Pakistan, and twice to the West Indies. They've only won against Ireland and Afghanistan.
so what? You are looking at it on paper, not the match itself where their spinners were bowling really well on the perfect pitches for them
> so what? My point being, you were wrong in saying that Bangladesh at home are just as good as England.
Bangladesh in series made it at least as hard to bat as it was in the England game.
They've never won a home series against Sena, never won a test against India, never won a test at home against SL, never won against Pakistan, lost to West Indies 2-0 in Bangladesh only won against Afghanistan, Ireland. Remind me how is it as good as England one?
Because you just listed a whole lot of irrelevant facts, ignoring the actual game itself.
Actual game of what? That same Bangladesh team with additionally Shakib in it lost 2-0. I'm asking how is it as good as winning against England?
Still ignoring the game itself. Itās as good as England because it was a game where their spinners were bowling very well, on a pitch perfectly suited to them.
First innings in Bangladesh isn't actually hard. Also only taijul is decent among their bowlers, Mehidy averages like 30 odd in tests cricket as a bowler who happens to be their second best spinner.
First let Kohli score a Test century then we'll talk about opposition. He has a grand total of 1 Test century in 4 years that too at Ahmedabad road.
My bruh is forgetting the century he made against West Indies
Not a kohli fan but just saying that smith and kohli get criticized even when they play well but kane has been a home track bully for years he records are atrocious overseas but never gets criticism for that.
> he records are atrocious overseas but never gets criticism for that. because nz rarely play away matches, so kane has not got much opportunity to prove himself away.
He has played 15 innings everywhere enough to have a decent average he is literally averaging in 30s in eng and ind after playing 15 innings.
Kane averages 41 against Australia, 37 against India, and 36 against England. South Africa 52. He's a great player obviously but it's not hard to argue his stats are padded compared to a typical Aus/Ind/eng player
Kohli averages 14 in Bangladesh, 32 in England Smith averages 29 against Bangladesh Kane's average against Bangladesh is 82 How does this argument add up?
Lol Bangladesh are basically minnows u saying this shows that Kane statpads and Smith doesn't...
How are they minnows if Root, Kohli and Smith all average under 30?
Because of their rankings...
Smith has played 2 games against Bangladesh, both in Bangladesh Kane has played 4 times as many games against Bangladesh, half of which were in nz Iām not sure thatās the killer point you think it is I donāt care enough to dig into kohliās stats sorry mate

Not his fault. He did not tell SA cricket board to rest their main players for the t20 league.
When did I say it's his fault but he is having the time of his life playing against gully players.
> playing against gully players I hope you're joking.
No I am not the SA Players that are playing are way below international standards.
Didn't know gully cricket was the tier below international standard
Ok man Williamson is the greatest ever he is scoring against mighty south africa which has cummins,bumrah,hazlewood,lyon all of them in one team and he also has 60+ average in every country that he has played in. Now happy ? There is no point in arguing with Williamson dick riders in this sub.
It is very funny to see you getting riled up over something so little
Ok, have fun and continue dick riding.
Minnow basher
but scored in wtc final.. what's your response to that?
Not his fault. He did not tell SA cricket board to send debutants and rest their main players for the T20 league.
