Mark Richardson
Bit of a debate going on about Mark Richardson going on only the England forum - http://www.world-a-team.com/showthre...3943#post93943

Just thought I would start a poll simple question, was Mark Richardson one of the greatest Test openers of his generation, or was he an average batter who made the most of his limited ability?

I do admire Mark Richardson for what he did, but I would not call him one of Test Cricket's greats, particularly as he did not even get past 3000 Test runs and only scored 4 Test Match centuries - although he did have a good average - 44.

So what are your thoughts?
