Jamadagni Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 Warner ABD Russell Pollard Gayle Unfortunately, no Indians in top 5, and probably wouldn't be in top 10 either. Majestic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chakdephatte Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 (edited) Considering players with at least 5 seasons only- ABD- As he batted at a tough position, was so versatile, and destructive Warner- His consistency over 10 years is unmatchable Russell- Tougher role. So average is not high but impact performances are countless. Gayle- Destruction Raina- Game awareness Want to see more of Buttler before putting him there.

Majestic Posted April 5, 2023 Author Share Posted April 5, 2023 Mine would be( purely on batting): Warner ABDV Gayle Buttler Raina The likes of Watson, Russell, Pollard will be right up there in terms of all round( bat+ bowl) performance. bowl_out 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It takes me an hour. And still its a total hack job of the batter. BacktoCricaddict and express bowling 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would still put buttler ahead of raina. for consistency, brat has also done quite well, albeit not as much as warner. good list, and I agree with most of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't compare Raina to an opener. Wanted a list with representatives from all batting roles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tibarn Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 (edited) These are my top 5 I like to watch ABD Watson Butler Virat Dhoni Top 5 are probably from this group: Gayle ABD Raina Warner Watson Kohli Rohit Edited April 17, 2023 by Tibarn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Majestic Posted April 18, 2023 Author Share Posted April 18, 2023 Also, I feel Samson is getting there too. Just need to be a bit more consistent with that strike rate he has maintained. He has been playing from long time too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vvvslaxman Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 Rohit has an average IPL history. Overall 129 strike rate. That is Babar Azam level. https://www.mykhel.com/cricket/players/rohit-sharma-ipl-p3516/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vvvslaxman Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 Gayle/AB/Raina/Warner box office players. Most of the others are either just run accumulators or wildly inconsistent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tibarn Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 1 hour ago, Majestic said: Definitely not Kohli and Rohit Their strike rates are low, but they will probably be the largest aggregate run getters by the end of their careers. People will probably rate them highly for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
