This row is an example, not a clue. It says the answer also bats right-handed and debuted in 1995, has slightly fewer Tests and runs than Ponting, and many more wickets.
Close means within 5 years, 15 Tests, 1,000 runs or 50 wickets. AR is an all-rounder and WK is a wicketkeeper.
Still chasing Sachin
Sachin Tendulkar retired in 2013 and still holds all three of these records. This is how far away the nearest challengers are.
