Here I am ranking in order of merit a list of 2 most artistic batsmen who played together in a test team.

 

 

1.Zaheer Abbas-Majid Khan

No batsmen posessed such a devout silken touch resembling those of a painters brush.Grace in the height of divinty.Zaheer was master of the cover drive while Majid was a champion in executing the hook shot.

 

 

2.Frank Worrell-Rohan Kanhai

 

Elegance personified with Kanhai taking batting art to regions of the sublime and Worrel posessing the ultimate epitome of elegance.

 

 

 

3.Mark Waugh-Damien Martyn

 

Resembled ballad dancers stroking the ball effortlessly.

 

 

 

4.Gundappa Vishwanath-Dilip Vengsarkar

 

Vishy tok batting prowess to region sot traversed in his wristwork while Vengsarkar executed the most glorious drives.

 

 

 

5.Mahela Jayewardene-Kumar Sangakaara

 

Both very graceful exhibting a flute playing.

 

 

 

6.Mohammad Azharuddin-Saurav Ganguly

 

Azhar's leg-side play had the touches of Rembrandt's brush or Beethoven's compositions with supreme oriental touch.Ganguly was simply the connoiseurs delight with mastery on the offside.

 

 

 

7.Alvin Kalicharan-Lawrence Rowe

 

Technical mastery at its supreme depth posessing a subtle grace.

 

 

7.Ted Dexter-Colin Cowdrey

 

Bating technician swith great style.For elegance Dexter was supreme while for artistry Cowdrey on his day was a magician.

 

 

8.Saed Anwar-Salim Malik

 

Great strokplayesr with a sublime touch.

 

 

9.Aarvida De Silva-Sannath Jayasuriya

 

Aravinda was calculating and organized while Sannath was more explosive than anyone on his day.Stil both were very stylish.

 

 

10.Greg Chappell-Kim Hughes

 

It was majestic sight witnessing Hughes dance down the wicket to the spinners or Chappell gloriously driving through the onside.

Remember 2 players together,not one.Gower had no stylist partner 

Did Gooch not play with Gower? For me personally style means nothing if you don't score runs.

Correct answer should be Graham Gooch/Gower if they overlapped. Graham Gooch I think was the first one to take baseball like stance with backlift to cut down on the reaction time. Looked ugly but was so innovative.

Just a QQ did you watch all these lives travelling across the globe..... Coz i am sure most of these matches were not live telecast when these oldies played. And i have never seen anyone hyping pakistani batsmen as much as you... even Pakistani don't do that ,they hype their bowlers though.
