Question is how much would he have scored if he was batting at that bowling green stadium with 50 metre boundries where Shewag scored his 200+ score as opposed to the 90 metre boundries where Warner scored 163? My guess is well in advanced of 200.

Neon/viru correct me if I am wrong but I'm sure there has only been a couple of one dayers at that stadium so no the rest of the world have not had a chance bat Wimbledon centre court.

Neon don't go on the defensive I was comparing two knocks where Warner played really well on a large ground and I was wondering what his score would have been on the small ground Shewag batted in. He hit a lot of balls that were 4s on that ground but would have been 6s on that stadium where Shewag made 200.

Apples and oranges.
I've hit a straight six at Pinebanks, the home ground of my former team. The ground was (it has since been sold and is now houses I think...) one of if not the largest in Norfolk.
Not only was it a six to the longest boundary (90ish m and down a slope) but I also cleared a 20ish feet high fence several yards beyond the rope. It was quite probably the best, cleanest hit shot I have ever made.
Does that make me a better batsman than Warner, or Sehwag?
