Chris Gayle vs Desmond Haynes
- Thread starter sayon basak

No.
Gayle is arguably the greatest T20 batsman.
Haynes is not the best one day batsman or opener

Cook opened. Trott, Bell played for some time too. Wasn't all that bad. 30-3 is a way overstatement.

Is Haynes even close to being so? I don't think so.
I'd probably have AB ahead of Gayle in T20.
capt_Luffy
International Coach
Not in T20Is, where AB has a bad record
DrWolverine
International Debutant
Haynes was not even the best opener in his team

in that timeframe Cook kind of became useless and we were running through the Leeds, Burns and Bess and Denly and even ****ing Jason Roy, but yeah, Post Cook decline-Pre Duckett is where Root was truly supportless, whole career thing is an inside English cricket joke for overdependence on Root.

Virat would be higher then, but I don't see any reason to restrict T20 only to T20i's.

International Coach
I just stated the obvious. No point ofcourse, but ABD wasn't that great in T20Is
DrWolverine
International Debutant
Do you take ipl into consideration when talking about t20?
DrWolverine
International Debutant
ABD was **** in t20i

T20= all of T20's, every league (not with the same weightage tho)
Silver Silva
International Regular
Wasn't he also a mega choker even in T20 comps, has he ever won a major T20 competition ?

I think Haynes was more productive overseas than his away average suggests, whereas Gayle's numbers are flattered by the era and also not playing as deep into age.
Haynes having a better home record than Viv, Lloyd&Greenidge is also creditable while Gayle flopped badly on the only WI tracks that remained interesting during that period.
