Andy Flower vs Adam Gilchrist vs Les Ames

I've been saying this for some time, and someone has finally agreed with me!.

Yk he used to rate Hayden>Tendulkar......

Gilly was an attacking batter down at 7 for all his Test career. He had a very position specific role he carved out for himself. It would seem de kock was pretty damn good when doing that position specific role too.

Given he averages 38 overall would mean he was pretty **** when not performing that position specific role as well.

Gilly is a better batsman than Flower

alright, back to topic, I think Flower is better than Gilly with the bat but not a huge gap.

Gilchrist having more impact on his team than Flower is a very poorly thought out joke. He batted at 7 behind one of the strongest sides Ever, unlike Flower who carried his team on his back.

Hmm, I'll grant you that on the impact side. But Gilchrist is the better of the 2. His attacking style did the best to maximize, given his position, so we shouldn't overlook him based on that position alone.
