vaibhav_delhi Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 Katich and Chadrapaul, although very effective, have the most ugly stance and sideways movement before the delivery. Stylish batmen : 1. Sangakara 2. Tendulkar would pay to watch them bat. Could watch them bat all day. Admire Sehwag for the absolute dominance.
EnterTheVoid Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 Katich -- Him walking across the crease is an eye sore but its effective. With that technique, he gets runs and runs in difficult conditions, so no complaints. Afretard -- stupid mofo, can't stand those ugly hoicks of his. Stylish; VVS for me.
vaibhav_delhi Posted November 26, 2010 Author Posted November 26, 2010 ^^ agreed VVS is one stylish batsman. Those on-drives, cuts, cover-drives and pulls are just awesome.
ZodiaC Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 Katich, Dhoni, Chanderpaul - Ugly, but effective batsmen. VVS, Sanga, Tendiya, Lara
girishk14 Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 stylish - laxman, mahela (on flat pitches), KP, Mike Hussey ugly - dilshan, afridi, ravindra jadeja (cant help but pity the helpless way in which he swings to try n secure his place),
sreej Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 ugly - dhoni, collingwood, prior stylish - dravid, gayle, pietersen
spectre Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 Ugly - Usual contenders like Dhoni, Katich, Chanderpaul, Smith Stylish - Mark Waugh, Dravid, Raina, Kallis, Lara
DomainK Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 I find Tendulkar the "most pleasing to the eye" batsman when in full flow. Most left handers are quite stylish, Lara being the best of them probably. Apna dada also looked quite good with some of those amazing cover and square drives. Out of the right handers, besides Sachin, I would include Mark Waugh, Azharuddin and Laxman. Ugly is not a word I normally like tn use, but some of the names suggested above are quite close.
Watson87 Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 ugliest ones - raina (against short balls), dhoni and yousuf pathan class - sachin, laxman, dravid
ZodiaC Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 Ugly - Usual contenders like Dhoni, Katich, Chanderpaul, Smith Stylish - Mark Waugh, Dravid, Raina, Kallis, Lara Smith? Graeme?
The Dark Horse Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 Stylish - Sachin, Laxman, :punter: Ugly - Dhoni( when he comes down the track and takes a single)
spectre Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 Smith? Graeme? Yep, I find his batting style not so pleasing
ZodiaC Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 Yep' date=' I find his batting style not so pleasing[/quote'] In no way ugly.
Andy Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 Dillshan has to be the Fulgliest Batsman i have seen in many years. Every Indian batsman is stylish in their own way.
SachDan Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 Stylish - Sachin, Laxman, Yuvraj, Sangakkara, Jayawardena, Gower, Greg Chappell, Richie Richardson, Lara, Anwar, M.Waugh, A.Desilva, M.Vaughan, Astle, Damien Martin, Cullinan (not when Warnie was bowling) Ugly - AfRetard, Chanderpaul, Katich, Dhoni, Mark Richardson, Ijaz Ahmed, Shastri
jusarrived Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 Dhoni was the ugliest for a longtime , but Fawad alam wins this hands down now . VVS the most stylish imo . Yuvi deserves a mention too as hes one of the few batsmen who looks good playing bothe ground and aerial shots .
vaibhav_delhi Posted November 26, 2010 Author Posted November 26, 2010 Dillshan has to be the Fulgliest Batsman i have seen in many years. Every Indian batsman is stylish in their own way. wannabe sehwag of srilanka...lol
Shane Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 Stylish - Sachin, Laxman, Yuvraj, Sangakkara, Jayawardena, Gower, Greg Chappell, Richie Richardson, Lara, Anwar, M.Waugh, A.Desilva, M.Vaughan, Astle, Damien Martin, Cullinan (not when Warnie was bowling) Ugly - AfRetard, Chanderpaul, Katich, Dhoni, Mark Richardson, Ijaz Ahmed, Shastri Spot on, covered almost everything. Ijaz was one of the ugliest from the 90's. Disagree about Mark "Dead Bat" Richardson though.
