If you excluded Joe Root, this would be far, far more interesting, as he's winning this by 17 miles.Vote for the Best Batsman here
KP is arguably the worst batter here, between him and CookIf you excluded Joe Root, this would be far, far more interesting, as he's winning this by 17 miles.
In such a poll I would pro ably go KP, but as I said could be a lot more interesting.
Didn't see him, edited post accordingly.KP over Barrington, @Coronis and @DrWolverine will like that
Yea deleted mine after seeing your edit lolDidn't see him, edited post accordingly.![]()
he's number 5Root easily and as mentioned previously, no 3 after Hutton, Root is the real debate.
I meant post warhe's number 5
I think Brook has so much ability and potential, and he genuinely has a chance to be seen as an ATG and filling two vital roles on their AT team. I'm definitely one who's rooting for him.lol, lost his spot for one game.

I reckon Root and Brook will end as the two best English Bats since Hutton, I don't know who will finish as better between them, probably a heated debate by the time Brook retires, maybe Root by a little.
Always wondered why you don't talk about Kevin Pietersen. He fits in your idea of perfect batsman. Destructive all conditions player who took on the best bowlers in the world. Strike rate in 60s which is very high for top 4 batsman. Played some of the greatest innings of all time. Agree with your Brook assessment, he can end as ATG. Similar to KP very destructive and likely all conditions player.I think Brook has so much ability and potential, and he genuinely has a chance to be seen as an ATG and filling two vital roles on their AT team.

Just remember the legacy of one Kevin Pietersen, and let's not out the horse ahead of the cart.
He is special though.

Kp has atg series winning 186 vs ashwin(through early in his career). Brook failed on turning tracks in pak.
