Which 2 batsmen of the same era rolled into one made the perfect batsmen?

[MechEng]

Rahul Dravid + Viv Richards = Vivul Drachards.

 

Can defend and play a rearguard innings on a minefield and switch gears to aggressive pulling/hooking on bouncy tracks vs fast bowlers.

 

Skin colour and physique of Viv Richards, face of Rahul Dravid with Viv's beard. No helmet, wears a cap only.

 

Speaks exactly like Rahul Dravid with a hint of Antiguan flair....Vivul Drachards.....

Kedar Kadhav and Md Hafeez- 2 players blessed  in all facets of the game. Kedar’s side arm+ Hafeez’s chuck = 1 proper bowler and they can keep dabbing to 3rd man against pace from every angle as well. Fielding well these 2 can make 1 good fielder.

 

Overall All Facets * 2

 

DK+Joe Root= Dk will solve Root’s conversion issues. Dk’s mandatory 20-30 might get Root over the 100 hump that he usually misses out by.

sunny + viv : Tighest compact technique with swagger 

Otherwise, just sachin tendulkar

what will happen if a batsmen made out of sehwag and dhoni facing an offspinner ?

sehwag wants to hit every ball to six , but dhoni would ask him to defend

KOhli + Abdv will be outrageous.

what does ABDV's game has that Kohli cannot achieve ?  or how would they complete each other. 

 

For me thats the reason they are not right at the top, may be ABDV sweeps better and has a bigger arc of hit zone. Kolhi has more endurance and concentration, they both manipulate the field like no one we have seen ever.  The thing with some of the era combos is that they were totally differnt batsmen who brought different styles and skills and were great.

Nonsense thread

[zen]

A fusion can potentially create an imbalance. For e.g. how can a Gavaskar be a Gavaskar if he tries to play like Richards and vice versa. The strengths that make them extraordinary can be nullified reducing them to average batsman 

 

Rather than combining contrasting batsmen, if I had to combine two batsmen, I would prefer complementary characteristics so may be a Barry Richards-Gavaskar instead of Viv Richards-Gavaskar

AB is bit of a risk taker. Kohli is a ground stroke player.

Sehwag-Sachin would be awesome combo.

Assumption is combination of the skills. Like one guy who could change his game at will to encompass both the types of playing.
