Future of world cricket

[gakgupta]

Now that ABD is in verge of retiring, can we say virat along with Joe Root and kane williamson are the future of world cricket...

Yeah...there is not enough to say virat has solved his issues with his offside play esp around 4thbstump but recent SA test at home have shown some evidence....

For me Steven Smith is like cook....he will soon fade away

More concerned about the bowling.

In ODIs no bowler debuted after 2003-04 and managed to keep his avg below 25. Morkel may be the only one.

In tests bar Steyn and Philander no bowlers avg below 25, compare that to 90s to early 2000s when lot of teams had a couple or more of them (Ambrose, Walsh, Bishop, McGrath, Gillespie, Warne, Wasim, Waqar, Akhtar, Murli,Donald, Pollock, Devilliers)

Although you can only bat against what is put in front of you but for me its difficult to rate batsmen of today anywhere close to SRT, Lara, Dravid or Waugh.

 Kane Williamson will be the best batsman in the world.

Would love for Kohli to move from very good to great in tests too.
