If You Had to Pick a Batsmen to Bat For Your Life…

[160KPH]

Who are you taking?

I saw some stats recently about how absolutely ridiculous Virat Kohli’s stats are in chases. If you had to pick one batsmen for all conditions and scenarios, to chase a target, who would you pick?

 

[SamNJ]

Steve Smith among the current batters.

 

[Hitman]

Rahul Dravid in his prime. He would bore the opposition to death.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Assuming they are at top of their game, Kohli/Dhoni.

 

[Rana]

Asif Ali

Remember the name

Remember my name afterwards too

 

[Ab Fan]

Aus - Smith/ AB
SA - Kallis
IND - Dravid
Pak - Younis
Eng - Cook
NZ - Williamson
WI - Chanderpaul
SL - Sangakkara

 

[Ashmal]

Aus - Smith/ AB
SA - Kallis
IND - Dravid
Pak - Younis
Eng - Cook
NZ - Williamson
WI - Chanderpaul
SL - Sangakkara

Steve Waugh should also make it from Aus.

Steve Smith is my pick among current players

 

[jnaveen1980]

I think OP Is talking about LOI based on his point about Kohli's chasing ability. Test players are not going to do zilch other than survive.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar

 

[shamaan]

Javed Miadad

 

[BunnyRabbit]

If I want to live a long long life, then it'd be Jacques Kallis or Kumar Sangakkara

If I want to go all gun blazing, it'd be Brian Lara or KP.

 

[Hitman]

Rahul Dravid in his prime. He would bore the opposition to death.

Keeping in mind it's all about not getting dismissed, not about scoring runs.

 

[Sunny_majoka]

Virat kohli

 

[Anis Shivani]

Boycott, Viv, Miandad.

 

[sweep_shot]

Babar Azam.

 

[Raja111]

Someone to bat for my life :

It would be "Little master Sachin Tendulkar"
I could watch him bat all day!

To chase a target

It's none other than the greatest chaser of all time "Chase master Virat Kohli"

 

[gazza619]

Javed Miandad.

 

[bujhee kom]

Any and all formats: IVA Richards.

He is easily the best player I have ever seen. If records mattered to him, he'd own them all.

 

[Zaz]

Hard as nails Alan Border

 

[shamaan]

Javed Miandad.

Definitely I didn't need to think twice.

 

[Waleed93]

Sir Vivian Richards, the man was just too far ahead of his time.
