Cricket is a team game and in a team game the momentum matters. A middle order batsman going into bat after openers have laid the platform finds it a lot easier to score as opposed to a situation where the team is 3 down for 30. Similarly a spin bowler finds it a lot easier to bowl when the pace bowlers have taken wickets up front and built up pressure.
This is where the advantage of being in a great side matters for an individual because that cricketer can play with a lot more freedom due to the platform/edge provided by his teammates.
