Who is the best young batsman around right now?

The answer to this thread is clearly Shaun Marsh.

Or Shane Watson, it's hard to split them.

Unmukt Chand looked far better than before when I watched him bat this month. Haven't followed his scores too much, so don't know how did in that front.

Smith, Williamson, Root are far and away the leaders of this pack


Kohli and Warner are good, but not on the same level imo

Don't think you can fit a fag paper between Root and Williamson. Could swap one out for the other mid-innings and no one would know

International Coach


Virat just logging on to CW on his phone to explain to you ****s that it is him that is the best young batsman in the world.
Bloody hell.................. he became an ATG ?

We should do one of these threads soon.

Most, say 3 and 1/2 years back which is around mid 2015 have rated Kohli below the likes of Smith, Rahane, Williamson, Root, Mathews at 6.

That's just wow.....

I really don't think the batting front in WC is at the moment something to shout about its very mediocre to be honest I reckon the next decade will look not too dissimilar to international cricket captain in that you'll end up with many more low scoring matches.
Only good call in this thread
