Maybe, but what it highlights is nearly every batsman out there has better stats at home then away
And a few theres a large difference between Home and Away ( I think Kane averages 44 away, which isnt that bad) -

44 is still very good and KW rightly sits in the pantheon of all time greats.

How many have reached said milestones?
19 players have reached 9000 test runs.
16 have 10,000.
Brian Lara suffers marginally in these lists because he got so few not outs. Most guys got around 20-30. Kallis got 40 and Chanderpaul got 49 !!!! Always good to boost the average a bit.
Lara got SIX.
Not an exact measure but to me he’s the best batsman of that list.
Younis Khan, Jayawardene and Sangakkara the most underrated.

There is to be a reunion of the 1999 cricket team which beat England 2-1 in England this weekend in Wellington. Most of the players will be there apart from Vettori (with Aust team) and Doull (overseas commentating commitments). Chris Cairns is also in NZ, which means he, McCullum and Vincent will be likely be in the same room since the 2015 Cairns' perjury trial. The management team apart from the late DJ Graham will attend the festivities.

Retro jerseys for the super smash this year. They actually look pretty cool I think. I don't think I've ever seen someone wearing a domestic cricket jersey (unless they're actually in the squad), wonder if this will change anything.

Great series that one. Still remember waking up and seeing Cairns come in at 39/6 on an awful oval track and coming in and belting Phil Tufnell all over the park on his way to 80 which changed the match and won us the series. The slower ball which became a massive weapon of his bamboozled Graham Thorpe and Chris Read notably.
Rain saved England in Manchester, we collapsed badly in Birmingham where Alex Tudor scored 99 not out as nightwatchman, and smoked them at Lords where me old cricket coach Matt Horne scored a century. Top bloke he was. Vettori was also lethal in that series, he could turn the ball back then which made him a nightmare to play against.
Ahhh the memories haha. Cairns and Vettori in 1999/2000 were something else.

McCullum and Vincent were still 2 years away from debuting back in 1999.

Read the article. I assume they are meaning all are in Wellington this weekend for different reasons, not just the reunion.

Yeah Vincent got a fantastic ton against a legendary Aussie team ( plus 50 in the second innings ) on debut. Seriously, every single Aussie player was a gun.

Your point stands regarding averages, but the question was for aggregates. The first list in the image is also fewest innings to get there, so also takes no account of a denominator with not outs. Lara sits 4th on both, as you correctly say Kallis gets a big boost from 10th to 3rd!
The point of that is that the fewest innings list is quite a good reflection, that isn't distorted by not outs, and the associated position in a batting order that the player frequented.

For an aggregate run total not outs in theory hurt you because you could have got more runs if you didn't run out of partners. In particular, I think Chanderpaul is probably affected by this, since from memory he batted at 5 a lot in some pretty average west Indian sides so probably ran out of partners a lot.

Yeah Lara had exactly the same problem but sounds like he hit out a lot more.
The analysis of their records is interesting, Not poles apart in terms of averages and Chanderpaul was great in his own way but Lara was next level.

Seven minutes. Or another over of playing a dead bat. That’s all that stood between former Black Cap Jeet Raval and the world record for slowest century in first-class cricket. The Northern Districts opener and captain was almost apologetic when he raised his bat first ball after lunch at Mount Maunganui on day four of his team’s Plunket Shield match against Central Stags on Tuesday. He’d just reached a marathon century at Bay Oval. After nearly nine and a half hours of resolve, his 551-minute knock was just six minutes quicker than the slowest first-class century of all time.

So Santner is now officially the white ball captain. Maybe I'm missing someone but feels like about the only realistic contender once you rule out Kane and Latham, since I'm not sure there's anyone else who is both a guaranteed selection and ready to be captain.

Has a cricketer ever as maligned as Santner ever had a turnaround like he has ?
Very impressive stuff
