Dravid vs Pietersen, who was better against high quality bowling?

[PlayerComparisons]

Dravid obviously had the far greater career but who would you pick against a really high quality ATG level bowling attack?

KP. Much more likely to do well against a bowling lineup of McGrath, Steyn, Warne and Murali.

Can’t believe Dravid got so many votes against Abdv too

That's like saying I am going to have a chance to have a foursome with Aishwarya Rai, Megan Fox, etc, etc. it’s a ridiculous scenario

That’s only a threesome so yeah, pretty ridiculous.

People think saying a player being worse against high quality bowling makes them a worse bat. Not true. You also need consistency aside from that against mid and low attacks which KP lacks.

Yeah dravid was one of the best ever against low quality bowling but he was underwhelming against high quality bowling a bit like Inzi/Root
