He can ditch the gloves surely if he's the best batsman. Basically become SA's Sangakkara.Different skill-sets and dynamics to our squad. He is our best keeper as well.

The only constant in life is change. People change batting positions all the time. Dravid started at 5,6. Laxman started as an opener. Ponting started at 6. It's very common for young test batsmen to bat lower when there are senior guys at the top but then slowly move up. Kohli batted at 6 too when Dravid, Laxman and that midget who wouldn't move from 4 were still playing.Nah it's speculation to suggest that QDK batting higher = more runs. There is no evidence to back this theory up and you risk ruining the one thing that's working well.
I am never a fan of changing something that is working exactly 100% how it is intended to. Like he is literally the best functioning player and you want to risk moving him around? That's how you handle a player who is great in his role? By changing it?
Nah, disagree entirely. At most I agree with moving him up to 6 with an allrounder under him. But to redefine him as a middle order batsman and to change the one thing that's working in the hope that you can get better...nah.
South Africa has top order problems. It doesn't seem as if other top order batsmen coming through are as high quality as him. He is clearly the best young batting talent in the country (and probably the world at his age).Nah it's speculation to suggest that QDK batting higher = more runs.

Huh, you're right. Weird, I always assumed he started at 5 for some reason.Kumar was never moved up actually. He was always batting at #3 even while keeping.
