worst batsman to watch you have ever seen?

Who is the most useless or boring batsman you have ever seen play?

For me it was derek Kenway for Hamshire against glamorgan last year he made a 50 i think but he never looked in and insisted on taking his guard every single over without fail. I also watched a very tedious century for sussex agaisnt hampshire he didnt seem a bad player but it was very dull.
watching zimbabwe bat at lords a couple of years ago was also very embarsing. Anthony mgrath got 5 wickets that pretty much sums it up

When Chris Tavare was in defensive mode he was horrible - didnt even attempt to rotate strike let alone play attacking cricket.

Graham Fowler scored a century against WI in 1984 where he seemed to miss more than he hit.

kepler wessels...for a left-handed batsman, he had a very awkward batting style, very ugly to watch...of course he was quite effective... :)

while i think he's a really good batsman, i find stephen fleming's complete lack of a backswing frustrating, for no particular reason.
