Removing not outs - TRINIDADDY - 04-26-2014
The averages of batsmen based on runs contributed in each innings discounting Not Outs. The criteria was at least 2000 Test Runs and an average of 45
Massive drop by Chanders.

Discount ?

In any system if there is consistency in the application of the variables and rules then you so do on a level playing field.
Removing not outs would therefore set a new benchmark, similarly.
TRINIDADDY have to assessed the impact on the top 100 players under the current rule?
You can also argue that any century above 200 should be counted as 2 ETC. Also adjustments for 50 etc so id aplayer scores 369, he is awarded 3 centuries and 1 fifty in his statistics.
What do you think?
Re: Removing not outs - ketchim - 04-28-2014
I advocate that 11 men must be OUT .
12th man should be used at the odda end BUT cannot bat :
similar to a runner or substitute fielder
Hence NO batsman can be accused of manipulating this Great game to remain NOT OUT :
even though I think that is a silly argument :-[
