Best batsman today ?

[Cricket_god]

And typcially he couldn't keep up with it. Much like Graeme Smith whose quite similar to Sehwag, except Smith had the captaincy which kept him in the side. Both used to average well over 50 in Tests but got found out, much like Hayden has but he found a way of getting around it. Get Sehwag to play as many Tests as Hayden has and see what his average overseas is because after 52 tests (the same ammount as Sehwag has played), Hayden averaged well over 50 overseas.

And at what stage did I say his uncapable of making big runs? I was merely replying to someone who was mockingly saying by my logic that Sehwag's the 2nd best batsman. :

the way he played at perth he will go on to get many aruns and if he played in australia most of ti me he would well average above 55 as he is more
of a backfoot player and struggles in slow conditions

Yeah, saying Tendulkar is better then Bradman is allot like saying Ganga (from Windies) is better then Tendulkar.

what a condradiction mate,you say ponting is alot better than bradman in the
bradman thread and say that bradman was a not that great against spin and he scored more runs as boundaries were shorter those days and now this post,its really shows up here

ya totally agree but they just reply on what they read in the replies and a new topic starts

 

[Howsie]

Chanderpaul is the best batsmen in the world right now. Look at what he has been doing over the last year.

Get the witch doctors out, it's time to resurrect Bradman.

 

[WestIndian]

Chanderpaul.

 

[Pak_cricketer]

Chanderpaul.

Agreed. Chanderpaul is extremely under rated. In the last 4 years his average in Test cricket has been 62.42.

 

[Kayne_esp]

i believe that Chanderpaul is the best batsman today...he is very consistent and scoring while remaining unbeaten if only he had help around him
