you get a lot of old foggies and misguided young lads on this forum praising the likes of trumper and stuff to the heavens and beyond. many of them are decidedly biased against the modern cricketing generations due to a variety of reasons.
this thread is meant to be a celebration of the achivements of the like of jayasuria, tendulkar, kumble, inzamam, waugh, gilchrist, warne, azharuddin, thorpey and numerous others who catch the wrong end of the weight-of-history stick. their longevity, their commitment, their performance puts them on a completely different pedestal to fellas like ye olde morris and trumper and tayfields and a bunch of others.
cross-generational comparisons are useless, but i'll come out and say that, if anything, in almost every case, the modern cricketer is far superior to their predecessors. and yes, it matters when you're trying to determine someone's greatness.
