But exactly how good was he? Let's have a look.

    Hey Cricket Lovers🏏, who do you think had more impact on Indian Cricket? Gundappa Vishwanath or Sunil Gavaskar?

    Yes for sure,
    For some who don’t really know Vishi who never care whom vishi likes.
    And that’s one and only one Sunil Gavaskar because no one can have that perfection about the bating.🙏

    I might enjoy aggressive brutish stroke play in today's times but deep down i also enjoy the elegance of old school Batting style where flick of wrists combined with superb timing sent the ball speeding towards the boundaries ❤😅. And no these guys didn't have leather ball murdering willows with thick edges and bulging sweet spots . Just pure technique was enough to do the job 😎😌.
    I have seen old folks from dad's generation talk about who was better sunny or vishy , now i can clearly say that Vishy was better even if he didn't have appetite for runs like Sunny 😅. I would love to see some more videos on old school legends who made Batting look elegant and classy like Azaruddin , vvs laxman,Dravid, Yuvi ( the last batsman to have old school elegance which was beautifully mixed with brute force of modern batsman) and many more. Please make it happen 🙌.

    I would hazard a guess that an average in the 40’s through the 70’s, taking in to consideration inflation 😜 and the improvements in the game today (technology, equipment, playing conditions, reduced super stars and so on) that today his average is easily worth 60+!!

      Rubbish and it is hurting me as I have been following Vishy even before Suni gavaskar knew him
      and you can ask Vishy himself. He always says I am his most vocal fanatic for the past 54 years.
      I have hugged him on the ground, on the pitch on many occassions, including that epic 97 not out.
      I used to beg, borrow or steal to see him play anywhere in India - Bangalore, Chennai, Bombay and Delhi

    many think Vishwanath's best innings was his 97 not out in Chennai in 1975
    No, it is thoroughly wrong. It was very ordinary when u compare it with his 124 against windies in Chennai in 1979
    the differences
    1. Gavaskar didnt play in the 1975 match
    2. Gavaskar also played the 1979 match
    3. 1975 pitch was only fast, but the 1979 Chepauk pitch was just horribly under prepared. Sylvester Clarke and Norbert Philip were faster than Andy Roberts and both cud kick the ball from good length. Gavaskar failed in both the innings, exposing his weakness against sheer pace on a wicked wicket. he was happy to be out soon in both the innings to escape body blow
    But Vishy ? - stood like a rock, tamed both the quickies and scored a bold manly innings of 124, without helmet, arm guard or chest guard
    I bet - Virat Kohli orTendulkar could not have scored even5 runs or survive a full over of those devils on that deadly pitch even with helmets
    That is Vishy for you

    He was good but not great.His best years were 1978 and 1979 when the best players were playing WSC which inflates his average by 2 to 3 runs.

      @jlg5967 3 месяца назад

      He's a shade below Doug Walters who played in the same era.They both don't cut it as greats (like Gavaskar or Greg Chappell) because Walters failed in England and Viswanath struggled overseas,36.31 against 47.32 in India.

      ​@@yellowNredThat's not right. India never lost a test match when vishy scored a century. There were drawn matches also inwhich he scored a century.
