The Most Aesthetically Pleasing Style of Batting and The Least Aesthetically Pleasing Style You Have Ever Seen?

[FischerTal]

Most aesthetic- Lara Least aesthetic- Phil Hughes

[Pagalpanti]

Lara for me. Even when he wasn't in full flow, the high back lift, the power in those punch drives. It was just an awesome sight to watch!!! As far as big hitting goes, you gotta love Gayle and Dhoni comes close. They hit bowlers with absolute disdain, to a point where even bowlers probably question their existence :haha:

[SLICKR392]

Laxman and Michael Vaughan. the worst - gayle' date=' razzaq,[/quote'] I like watching Gayle's shots unlike the other blind sloggers, he is class.

[Number]

All time - Mark Waugh. Current - Jayawardne.

[MCcricket]

Lara, Laxman, Ganguly, Gower, Richard pleasing to the eye, Chanders, Hughes, Shastri, Langer, Waugh, Bevan, Dhoni not to good to look at.

[Mahaa Raavana]

Most aesthetic - :hatsoff: Sanga :hatsoff: Least aesthetic - Dhoni

[carnish]

Best - Lara, Laxman, Azhar, Inzamam, Jayawardene, Mark Waugh, Martyn, KP, Ramesh Worst - Chanderpaul, Dilshan, Charles, Gayle, Rahane, Vijay, Kaif, Vijay Bharadwaj

[nikred]

Laxman and Yuvi on song are a treat to watch.

[Jersey #10]

Sachin

[Square Drive]

Best - Mark Waugh, Martyn, Jayawardene, Inzamam, Azharuddin

and Aravinda, Lara (sort of different way).

Worst - Hughes, Dhoni and the most baseball style hitters who uses heavy bats kills the art of batting.

[KFC_Zinger]

Aesthetic - Azhar, Laxman, Stewart, Gower, Martyn, Aravinda DeSilva Not Aesthetic - Chanderpaul, Kaif, Ijaz Ahmed

Adding a few Aesthetic - Sachin / Ganguly ( Off Drives ) / Anwar / Sunny / Vishwanath / Cook / Clarke / M waugh Not Aesthetic - Bell / Dilshan / Kallis / Grame Smith / S Waugh ( earlier in his carrier)

If you include Kallis in Non- Aesthetic, then 95% batsmen will come in that list.

Respect for his achievements :hatsoff::hatsoff:
