For an average cricket team, I would pick a decent keeper who can bat well over a great keeper who can’t bat
Do you believe that Pant would be picked ahead of Knott? Yes or no?It doesn’t matter if it is small or big but there was a gap between them and Knott was picked for his batting.
I would definitely pick Pant ahead of Bob Taylor thoughDo you believe that Pant would be picked ahead of Knott? Yes or no?
If two keepers are of similar level with the gloves, the better batter should be picked no doubt (hence Knott>Taylor). If the batting gap is too big, I'd even allow a keeper that may be one or two tiers below with the gloves, but still very good.
Everybody would. The batting gap is too big.I would definitely pick Pant ahead of Bob Taylor though

In an ATG team where I have six great batsmen including Don Bradman himself, I don’t need him.Pant was a better batsman, no?
But both were ATG keepers, Flower was objectively poor.Bob Taylor was considered a better wicket keeper but Alan Knott picked over him because of his batting.
ThisAllan Knott was picked because there was little to no keeping gap, but a huge gap in batting.
Pretty sure they wouldn't pick Pant ahead of Knott.
Healy was a fighter who could legitimately hold up an end though.For an average cricket team, I would pick a decent keeper who can bat well over a great keeper who can’t bat
