Hahaha. Please. Bevan I agree was pathetic in tests. 

Iyer has a clear weakness vs short ball. Hope he csn fix it. If he can then j see him doing well. Can he though?

Found it and he this doesnt contain his catches dropped in IPL which he does many

Kohli is a legendary catch dropper for sure across the formats..

Don’t put Livingstone in the same category as Symonds, atleast let him do something of significance before saying we need players like him.

With Bevan, it does not necessarily mean not having the ability to accelerate when it matters but being able to play clutch innings in pressure situation.  Even in T20s, you can afford to have a player like that.

 

Iyer can accelerate enough when required and has shown the composure to handle pressure situations and play clutch knocks. This is exactly what the greatness of Bevan is known for because he did it day in and day out. He played in the same era as Klusenar, was not as attacking as him either but ended up as a greater finisher of the game because he could come up at 22-5 and chase down 230 totals with quite ease.

Klusner, bevan all were finishers who mostly batted at 6,7 and iyer will be mostly at 4,5 when he plays so comparison shud be made with players who batted at those places 

At 4,5 we need guys like ABDV, KP, Lara, yuvi and we already have pant n KL . Once gill improves his attacking game which he will , he ll be a big contender for 3,4

Changing the complexion of the match in a big game with two individual excellence on field.

 

Under pressure situation, he has always been good. Symptoms of Bevan indeed!

Bevan is awfully underrated.

 

He would have crushed it in this era.
