Useless 8 thousand runs ever. King of Soft runs.
His 8k runs have been as useless as Younis Khan’s 7k runs.
Won numerous matches for best part of his career.
Last 1k or so you could call useless though. Should have called quits an year ago
He only won soft matches for South Africa that any half-decent opener in his stead would have. He scored big against weak attacks bowling first, and he was only good for chasing sub 250 totals. He flopped nearly every time SA conceded 300+.
A massively overrated ODI opener who has a stellar record on paper, but will probably struggle to break into the top 15 ODI openers of all time. Even in his current generation, he is comfortably inferior to Rohit, Warner, Dhawan, Roy, Bairstow, Finch, de Kock and even Guptill.
He has played some wonderful clutch innings in Test cricket though. He was phenomenal from 2010-2014, but he has been average either side of his purple patch which is why he can't even average 50 now.
