Brooke is laying the smack down and hitting some daddy knocks very early in his test career. Sounds like a great prospect and already a star. Averaging in 60s now.

Saim Ayub is Mr No Look, the most stylish batter ever since Azharuddin retired. He’s already winning matches for Pakistan and playing knocks that look royalty.

Jaiswal is also in a great form and is scoring some good runs and has a solid FC record behind him.

It’s clear that the future of batting belongs to these 3 kids.

Which one do you think will end up as the greatest of this generation?
 
Saim needs to do well in test cricket to be in the conversation with the other two. He certainly has the talent to be a great player though.

Right now I think its Harry Brook, Yashasvi Jaiswal, and Rachin Ravindra that are the most exciting future batting prospects.
 
No Rachin? I think he's just as gifted as the others. And more watchable than all of them too

Brook stands out because of his ability to score heavily off good length deliveries with damn good strike rotation.

You have to get him on tough spinning pitches or with seam movement before the kookaburra ages more than 30 overs.

After that , he's a nightmare to bowl and set fields for.

You can't drop him thrice like NZ did today. Criminal.

Ya.. I think Rachin is criminal miss from the list.
 
Brooks and Jaiswal are your big deal.

Saim Ayub won’t have a successful international career and few years later Bhaijaan will move on from him.

Ravindra will be a good batter but I don’t see him being as prolific as Williamson in home conditions. He will be world class but most likely become a Conway in long run.
 
Jaiswal is heads and shoulders better than Saim and Brook skill and talent wise
 
@BouncerGuy

Brother, if it is acceptable can you please also add the name of Rachin Ravindra. I think I just forgot about him there and early posters have rightly pointed that out.

Thanks

Bro you rate saim alot do you see him becoming next saeed anwar?
 
Very thought provoking thread as usual by @Bhaijaan.

I did a lot of analysis and looked at stats, correlations, memorable innings and potential paths for greatness etc.

After doing all of this I concluded that I don't really care, I am not interested in their achievements, and no matter what these guys do they won't be able to hold a candle to the epic duels we were used to in 90's and 00's.

Nowadays I am only watching cricket to see if Joe Root can break Tendulkars record. After that my friendship with cricket will end ( on a positive or negative note depending on outcome).

It all depends on Saim.
He has the spark in him. But does he have it in him to stay focussed and take this game to the next level? If he dedicates all effort towards it, he will become one of the premier batters in the world.
 
Saim is way more talented than anyone else. He already has a 53 ball 100 in Odis.
 
In terms of talent

1) Jaiswal
2) Rachin Ravindra
3) Saim Ayub
4) Harry Brooks (I don't rate him, just a flat track bully)

In terms of achievements atm

1) Rachin Ravindra
2) Brooks
3) Jaiswal
4) Saim ayub

No point in comparing achievements jaiswal is an infant and saim has flunked in t20 and been bamg avg in tests. Only showed promise in the 3 to 4 odi games he's played.
 
Anyone here thinks Tristan Stubbs deserves to be in this conversation?

I never liked Brook and thought he was a poor replacement for the fizzled out Jason Roy.

He's a solid and certified flat track bully and on such pitches he'll be an asset to England as he'll be a nightmare to the opposition.

However he's just a bootleg rohit sharma.
 
Bit sad that Shubhman Gill who was supposed to take the baton from Virat Kohli failed to be that guy.

Ya true he doesn't even seem confident where ball even turns a inch i mean its one thing to struggle this guy just play the most weird shots against spin i seen his batting last 2 tests he just looked like a hack batting against noman and sajid.
 
Jaiswal, Rachin and Brook will have better stats, more match winning performances , impactful knocks and more overall achievements in their international careers.

But Saim Ayub is more talented as he's a Pakistani.
 
Kamindu, Brook, Rachin, Jaiswal are already Test stars. Saim is not. It is almost like we have no one to compare with Saim and end up with comparing with guys who are well aheado of him. May be we can compare with stubbs. But stubbs is a serious T20 batsman. Not so much in other formats.

Stubbs just scored a lovely 122 in test bhai :ROFLMAO:
 
I think brook practically on the right path and have achieved some great milestones.. hopefully Jaiswal wil catch him up soon!
 
Brook smashes an ATG Test century today in NZ.

Jaiswal gets out on a golden duck
 
1) Jaiswal
2) Brooks
3) Rachin
4) Saim.

^^ This is all formats( Yes ik jaiswal hasn't played odi but talent wise he'll be >)

But in tests Brooks is no 1 atm.
 
Brook and Jaiswal look ready to take on the world, Rachin needs to be more dominant. Kamindu deserved to be here.
 
Saim is the future of PAK batting. I said it from day one when everyone was doubting him, and now he is proving it. Believe in your players instaed of writing them off. When someone has the talent you should be able to judge it, even if they go through struggles or rough patches.

I would say the same for Rachin, Yashasvi and Harry Brook.
