@Larrfullashyte


A 30 avg is mediocre?


Yes. And so is 60 wickets after 18 Test when he is still being billed by the Pommie press as the next Mikey Holding.


But the stats don't lie and he's nothing more than a poor man's Mikey Holding.

@LarrFullashyte


Here is a perfect example of an good bowler with very good stats after 18 Tests, unlike that mediocre over-hyped wannabe Pommie poser.


18 Test Matches - 78 wickets at an ave of 17.85


Let's see if you knuckleheads can figure out who he is.

@WIfan26


BTW calling Archer "Mediocre" is as idiotic a take as there is.

@Larr Pullo

He still looks like he comes from Alabama to me but nevertheless he is still much older and experienced than the rest I would expect him to be a quick starter was actually my point!!!


Archer is fast no doubt but most times he’s injured and never at full throttle!!! How many games has he helped England win compared to others I’ve named???

Thu, Jan 8, '26 at 11:01 AM

@WIfan2630.02

Alzari has a test avg of 33.46, ODI (27.8cool T20 (24.59) Archer test avg 30.01, ODI (24.3cool T20 (23.34).

Tell me who is statistical the better.

@tc1

Alzari Joseph plays for WI Archer’s stats are probably skewed by green English wickets!!!


Do you think Alzari is mediocre???


Archer plays for one of the best teams in the World and can’t average under 30 if he was good as you think he is he should easily average under 25!!!

@WIfan26


What these clowns can't wrap their heads around is that a 36 year old journeyman bowler has played the same amount of Tests matches as Archer and has stats of an elite all-time great bowler.


Yet, the great Pommie hype can't even muster an ave of less than 30.


Archer is the Darren Ganga of bowling. Looks the part technically, but there is little substance when it comes to performance and results.

@Larr Pullo

England had bating failures.

Thu, Jan 8, '26 at 12:56 PM

Who was WI or OZ bowling coach during the late 70's and early 80's

Thu, Jan 8, '26 at 1:01 PM

@camos


News for you, England had failures on both sides, or rather, all sides of the ball. Everything was atrocious. Tactically, field placement, you name it.
