Test average is not brilliant, particularly if you take out the gentle dobbers from India, New Zealand etc.
As for the game in general it is universally accepted that it has been a 'batsmans' game for some time now. You only need to look a the paucity of the England pace attack to see how standards have fallen and county batsmen don't even get to play against them.
