Williamson is by far and away the best batsman, but Sir Richard Hadlee will forever be NZ's best Cricketer....
That's my opinion....
Close to being the greatest fast bowler of all time, his stats are eye popping to this day. And he was a great all rounder at that
Stats yes. Talent its Crowe by a mile. Crowe got his runs against the big boys and looked elegant. Kane is a tradesman who's worked hard at his game. Kane can be horrible to watch at times.
@@pat1589 horrible to watch is very unfair. May not be the most elegant and grafter at times, but horrible ? Crowe though was something else, I saw him in a tour game back in 1995 and you could watch him even just defend all day.
@@whatevermate3 yes if crowe misplayed a shot he still looked good. I fully stand by my comments on William's. I'll never forget a 3 game one day series in Oz 2 or 3 years ago. I think I all 3 games were played in Cairns, it was in the spring. Williamson couldn't hit the ball off the square. He cost us victory in 1 game with awkwardly slow batting, then cost us another victory with lame captaincy. I find his back foot drive ok, apart from that I'd never ever pay money to watch him bat. I saw Martin Crowe bat 4 times. 2 of those times he got a good score, the other 2 out in the teens. Hes the best batsmen I've ever seen. Brilliant against spin and quicks. Crowe would sweep nathan lyon into oblivion. Crowe, M Waugh and D Gower for me.
@@pat1589 When Crowe played India, they didn't have seamers anything like Bumrah and Shami. Also, Kane has faced Cummins, Rabada, Steyn and Philander: As good as any bowlers in history.
Nah Hadlee the greatest that man went to ozzie and took everyone on,team ,crowd media.Kane a legend forsure though
Revered Hadlee then, and there's not a fast bowler from NZ that is even close. And he was a bona fide all rounder, part of the all time once in generation quartet with Imran Khan, Ian Botham, and Kapil Dev
Legend h par jeeta kuch nahi. Abhi bhi harega Aussie se hamesha ki tarah
@@muditmalhotra4161lol he is wtc winning captain
And yeah NZ and his performance in icc events playing finals and semifinals is still ya big job consistently
And wtc he won
And for your kind formation NZ defeated Australia in icc wc 22 yeah aus are dominating but still harega humesha ki tarah proves you started watching cricket from yesterday
And he is the reason why we lost so many icc events to nz
This time we won especially bcoz of host advantage your comments makes no sense
Harega hamesha ki tarah lol kid
Wc 19 I think I shouldn't give any excuse whole world knows kumar dharmsena poor empiring
Atleast they put a good fight every time
And btw he is Wtc winning captain cry hard
Fred Goodall was NZ greatest wicket taker, scored a fair share or runs too
Williamson averaging in the mid30s against the big three. Hadlee had world class numbers against all opposition.
Hadlee is currently the greatest NZ cricketer of all time. Only Williamson comes close. But if Williamson can make it to 40 centuries with an average of around 55, Williamson will be amongst the 5 greatest test batters and the mantle will have changed hands.
.........however,,..Richard Hadlee,,,,,Martin Crowe,,,,,,and Ken Williamson form a beautiful 🔺️ 🔺️ ◀️ triangle...........and always gave great time to the country & commentators............🏏🎄💜
Kane is legend
Hey Sky Sports, at 1:30 , what year did Ricky play upto?
1012 😂
I didn't know they played cricket all the way back in 1012 lol
Kane is a great, but Martin crove is their best batsman.. Wasim akram said crove played him best
The greatest newzeland priduced is Richard hadlee..
I think Hadlee is the greatest from NZ but you can’t objectively put Crowe above Kane at this point given his stats
This is why you have to take the opinions of experts with a grain of salt. The idea of Kane Williamson being as good or even better than Hadlee is just ridiculous. He does not have a good enough record against the top teams and especially away from home:
Average against:
Australia: 36.95
England: 36.85
India: 37.87
Away averages:
Australia: 42.85
England and Wales: 30.53
India: 33.53
South Africa: 21.17
These numbers make it hard to justify Williamson as being even an ATG on a world level whereas Hadlee is unquestionably one on the world stage and while he might not be the bowling GOAT, he is in that conversation.
If you take the minnows out of Williamson's record, the results are catastrophic. By minnows, I mean Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, West Indies, Zimbabwe and the visiting third-string South African team earlier this year who might have had only three regulars in it and were missing their frontline bowlers.
With the minnows:
100 tests, 8743 runs at 54.99, 32 100s
Minus the minnows:
64 tests, 4826 runs at 44.69, 16 100s
His average goes down by 18.7% and his number of tons is HALVED!
Now Hadlee with the minnows (Sri Lanka):
86 tests, 431 wickets at 22.29, 36 5WI, 9 10WM
Minus the minnows:
80 tests, 394 wickets at 23.19, 34 5WI, 8 10WM
His average goes up by just 4.0%, his number of 5WI goes down by just 2, from 36 to 34 and his number of 10WM goes down by just 1, from 9 to 8.
A test batting average of 44.69 is not THAT impressive but a test bowling average of 23.19 at 4.93 wickets per test is still outstanding.
Richard Haddle will always be the greatest cricketer
@larrygerry .. You say that Richard Hadlee is the greatest cricketer.... Surely you can take a little more care to spell his name correctly....
In 33 test series, Hadlee was Player of the Series in eight of them. Seven of these were against top teams while only one was against a minnow (Sri Lanka in 1984 in a 3-test away series). Of his seven awards against top teams, six were in away series and only one was at home. Six of the seven awards against top teams were in 3-test series and the other one was in a 4-test away series.
In many more test series, 52, Williamson has been Player of the Series just four times. Three of these were against minnows (WI (3-test away series), SL (2-test home series) and this year's gutted SA team (2-test home series)) and just one was against a top team (Pakistan) in a 2-test home series.
In summary:
Player of the Series awards against top teams:
Hadlee: seven in 33 series, six away and one at home, six were 3-test series and the other was a 4-test away series.
Williamson: just ONE in 52 series in a 2-test home series.
Again (see my other post below), how can anyone in their right mind possibly think that Williamson is as good or even better than Hadlee??? It's beyond absurd.
NZ greatest cricketer except against real opposition like Australia hes either out injured or doesn't play., they have him well worked out as they do also with the whole NZ team..Oh Look we just got hammered again in the T20 series
the Aussie teams of the 80s with Lillie, Thomson etc or even the West Indies greats of the same era, Garner, Marshall etc.. Kane wouldn't survive
Look up the stats for today-hes only scored 2 of his centuries against Australia and they were 9 years ago...
You make it out like he plays them all the time - he’s literally played against them 4 times since 2015 and scored 97 in one of those innings. You fail to mention those 100s were 166 and 140. What stats don’t show is that he has been batting 3 for NZ since he was 20, practically opening due to poor openers.
Don’t comment if you’re going to be so clueless
Hammered in the T20? Mate, no one cares about that form of the game. It's candy for the crowd, and quickly forgotten. Kane scored a century in Brisbane against the Aussies, with Bill Lawry moved enough to say he could become NZ's greatest ever batsman. NZ hardly ever plays Australia so your "he has only scored two centuries against them" argument, is a crock of brown stuff. What a pity this series in NZ is only two tests.
Vvs took games away from aussies unbelievably well more than 4/5 occasions..but never ever mentioned by aussies
This is about NZ though?
@@11hitmanDagenius
Am not mentioning about this particular video.. Am pointing about generally they praise Sachin &Lara only ..
But Vvs played as good as or even better than anyone under preassure..
167,281, 200 not out 148,103,178,73 notout all these are incredible knocks against aussies.. Also Couple of 65+ in low scoring matches that helped india to win against aussies...
Fabulous insight from the legends!
Fantastic interview. Didn't realise how brilliant flem's cricket brain is.
Hadlee
Hadlee then Williamson
Bradman then Warne
Tendulkar then kapil dev
Akram then Imran
Stokes then root
Stokes? Are you kidding me?
maybe compare bowlers to bowlers and batters to batters... otherwise u have no metric to base ur statement on
Last one is absolutely wrong it has to be
Root then Stokes
Stokes them root. That's final
@@ayushmishra91 yep Stokes then root.
Hogan and Paddles will forever be NZs greatest for me. Both of their careers were heavily dampened by injuries and it was also a more competitive time for cricket. That's no slight on Kane who is magnificent.
Being injury free is a measure of greatness.
@@harifederer what? Dan Carter is considered to be the GOAT 10 but was injured a lot. Paddles held the world record of 431 test wickets for a long time. Is he not great?
Hadlee and Martin Crowe r the best that the Kiwis have thrown up!!
Williamson and Chris Cairns too.
Kane never scores runs against Australia. Handle destroyed Australia on multiple occasions.
For everyone saying Kane will never usurp Hadlee: Think how good he would need to be to surpass Hadlee? Ponting obviously thinks he will. So how good is that? 10,000+ test runs and 40 test hundreds?
If you're talking greatest test bowlers, Muttiah Muralitharan should always be mentioned.
800 run outs ! Incredible !
There's a reason why Warne is always considered as the greatest spin bowler ever and McGrath, Akram, Steyn as the best seam bowlers.
@@ayushmishra91 Add Hadlee, Trueman, Marshall, Ambrose, Donald and Lillee to that list.
08:23 Fleming: "The game has never had more money in it but, international cricket has never been poorer." WHAT ????
Martin Crowe way better than Williamson. Williamson is terrible to watch at time. Hadlee our greatest Cricketer, the Aussies feared him, they dont fear Williamson.
I guess we'll see tomorrow.
@@ethancoster1324 open your eyes.
@@pat1589 Cummins vs Williamson will be legendary.
@@ethancoster1324 it will be good. My point is Crowe scored his runs against the big boys, and looked good doing it. Williamson very rarely looks good to me, a tradesman who's worked very hard at his craft though. Crowe, M Waugh and David Gower, I'd pay good money to watch that, Kane no.
@@pat1589 KWs scored two hundreds against Australia. Three+ against South Africa, a couple against India and England. His form ATM is top notch and his record is the best going around as well. We'll see just how great he is today against a quality attack.
Ponting's bigotry is still quite present ,isnt it ? Imagine not talking about an Indian player like SRT who has 100 international 100's .For me ,Its SRT,Lara,Sir Viv,Virat ,Kallis, & Bradman & Ponting himself as the GOAT batters.Stephen is a VERY underrated batter .I remember a STUNNING 100 from fleming in an world cup against SA.
I agree with what Punter is saying. Skill wise Lara was beyond Sachin. As good as SRT was, he hasn’t won as many tests as Lara single handedly has. If Lara had a team like Indias, he would have had remarkable numbers
@@ankushrawat4826can say the same about Sachin in odis and the longevity, the stats & pressure of a billion people in both formats…. Sachin never played in a team with match winning bowlers like India has now…… ponting acknowledges the same when he is giving interviews elsewhere but Sachin’s achievements would hurt a contemporary. Some burnol & ponting wines for ricky!
y r u crying, its his opinion and I agree with him. Kallis is by far the greatest cricketer, just check his numbers
@@rohitp8900 Fair point. Lets just savour the fact that we got to see some of the greatest players ever together
@@subhamshankar3670 Bro who is crying? If he can have his opinion, can I not have mine? What's with the needless toxicity.
