It's close as I think Dravid averages around 49 without minnows and Clive never played any and managed 46, both have some distinct advantages in their play but I don't think you can argue Lloyd was a better Batsman overall. Batting position plays a part.

Close. Both underrated on this forum. But Lloyd is underrated more. If Viv Richards didn’t exist, his star would have shined more.

International Captain
I think it's close. Lloyd was very prolific in an extremely long career, holds certain advantages and is arguably the greatest touring batsman in India. Think batting positions is the decisive factor.
