CW Ranks the Batsmen

Trumper fans will hate me for this.
Your vote wouldn't have been needed had I voted, anyways I am happy :)

My votes in this round:

1. Everton Weekes
2. Javed Miandad (this is a strategic vote; otherwise it would have gone to one among Graeme Pollock, Walcott and Barrington)

Surprised seeing no votes for Barrington at this stage also...

Graeme had a very fine test career, but one that, like so many of his countrymen of that era, was truncated. His average is behind only DGB in batsman with over 2000 runs still, so must be due to go in soon.
Thought my days of recycling votes was over, but sadly not.
