There are some votes, but no one's replied yet, so I'll give it a go. It's always tough to compare when one player's career is not over. For me though, Shakib al Hasan will almost certainly have a better all-round career by the time he retires. The averages are misleading here, because for mine Shakib al Hasan is a significantly better bowler, due to the higher WPM he's had, over a longer career, in terms of more Test matches. I'd just about give Faulkner the nod as a batsman, but Shakib has been a much more important and influential bowler, so wins the nod as a better allrounder for mine.

This is actually an interesting poll. I don’t care who was better but they’re probably the two best pure all rounder spinners of all time. Both would play tests based on their batting or bowling.

It depends which draft this is for. I've got Shakib for the one we are voting on at the mo, and Faulkner for the draft we are halfway through.
