Who do you guys think is better?

I think its got to be Tatenda Taibu, more consistent and he can really bat long under pressure. However, Ashraful is more entertaining to watch when he's in form but his inconsistent batting has cost Bangladesh lots of games. He's in the team just because he's been playing cricket for 7 years and played some good innings for the team.

Taibu. Taibu is one of the top wicket-keeping batsmen playing the game and it's a shame he's gotta play for a confused Zimbabwe team.

What a comparison. A keeper against batsman. :p

Taibu is better overall. Dogged batsman has made run against every side with good bowling attack. Good captain as well and good with gloves as well.

Ashraful only for 20-20.

Tatenda Taibu, As well as being statically better, He is also more sensible and more than useful with the gloves.

Ashraful could be a legend if he used his talent right.

I can't say. I like them both too much.

I'm voting for Taibu because he's more consistent. Every Zimbabwe scorecard he has runs. Ashraful has played a few good innings but gets himself out a lot.

Tatenda Taibu is better, he is more concistent and have some quality in him. He is a tremendous fileder what Ashraful is not

Ashraful has no consideration for the match situations sometimes IMO

He does, but it's as if his body just doesn't allow him to play sensibly, just pokes at deliveries fatally and gets out.

Well I think Ashraful has already lost the poll when him being a top order batsman is being compared with a wicket keeper batsman

Actually they both use to come at 2nd down for their respective teams so it is not the case that you can't compare them at all for their batting abilities.
