Most promising young batsman

[kiwiviktor81]

Williamson and Akmal both with averages around 36 now.

And Williamson with two fighting hundreds: one against the then ranked No.1 team and the other against probably the next No. 1 team.

 

[Mike5181]

Williamson should have a decent average after the Indian and Sri Lankan test series this year.

 

[Shri]

Kohli.

Thats all.

 

[grecian]

tamim/n not a bad shout here, fom me.

 

[smash84]

tamim the best of the new lot.....easily

Well, Williamson is putting his hand up.

 

[Mike5181]

Achievements-wise yeah. I'd take several guys on that list ahead of him based on potential though.

 

[Flem274*]

Tamim could be seriously ****ing good tbh, by world standards.

Pity his team is ****.

 

[Shri]

Kohli > Tamim

[morgieb]

Wow some of my selections were epic fail.

 

[Agent Nationaux]

The only decent one in that list is Williamson and maybe Pujara but haven't really seen much of him. Most of the rest are ****. Can't believe that hack Ukmal got so many votes. And where is Kohli?

 

[Jono]

This thread was made in September 2009, no one was listening when I was telling them Kohli was a God back then.

It is why I was forced to flood this forum with Kohli pics. Everyone eventually came around

 

[Agent Nationaux]

You will always be a **** for torturing the forum with all this Kohli pics and then starting a Kohli craze.

 

[SeamUp]

FUUUUUUUUUUUU.

Just realised that Pujara was over 20.

And missed Adrian Barath, too.

What the hell happened to Adrian Barath

I remember his test hundred at the Gabba I think.

Unfortunate ends for Hughes and Taylor.

But Tamim, Brathwaite, Rossouw, Williamson, Kohli, Pujara hanging in there quite nicely. To think this was 7 years back.

 

[Pothas]

Vince has made a habit of getting to 20 odd and then getting out but I am sure that is an issue that can be overcome with experience.

Yeah this worked out.

 

[Pothas]

Got big hopes for him, have not seen him live yet but looked excellent a couple of weeks back in the Pro40. Struggled a bit in the four day game of late, got into the 20's quite a few times but has failed to go on. Think he is tending to be caught behind the wicket a lot and my dad said he played at a lot balls he should have been leaving when he saw him a couple of weeks ago, this is all stuff that can be worked on but I am trying not to expect too much yet.

And again....

 

[SeamUp]

Early days obviously, but so far I've not been too impressed with Smith's batting. It'll be interesting how many chances he gets especially in the four day matches this year with NSW having a billion batting options.

How times have changed ey Nooofers

This was the original original best young batsman thread.

Umar Akmal anyone ?
