Kane Williamson vs Joe Root

[PlayerComparisons]

Honestly, complaining about KW's away record; and then putting Sehwag ahead of him is REALLY baffling to me......

Time for a Williamson vs Sehwag poll

Why does this forum seem to go through waves of going on and off Root to a massive degree and then I check and he still just averages 50. I thought I’d missed him going on a massive tear or something.

He shot down the "Bazball ruined his batting" cope so he is being rated fairly rn.

But don’t you know he’s ranked #1 in tha world?!!

People be acting like he averages 55 lol. Will probably end with a sub 50 average.

 

[thierry henry]

Is this….is this because he made some runs at home against SL and WI? The **** is going on?

only one of the Fab 4 will end with a sub 50 average

and it's not Root.

Post 2000 debut,

Sangakkara
Younis
Sehwag
G Smith
de Villiers
Clarke
Pietersen
Amla
Cook
Smith
Kohli
Root

All these names are better batters than Williamson.
Among those who are below Williamson and world class:-

Hussey
Warner
Taylor
And whoever comes after or I missed.

Smith, Root, Sanga, ABD and Kohli are clearly ahead of Williamson for me, with a case for Younis and Amla. For the rest, I'll have Williamson ahead

 

[Johan]

Cook>Kane is certainly a stance

It's very bold, I must say, to think Smith will average sub 50.. ..

Yea this is fair

 

[Johan]

wait a second

someone please break down Clarke>Williamson for me.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Well he's a promising keeper batsman, but I think he'll average less than Pant and Rizwan.

 

[Coronis]

Fun fact, its been 3 and a half years since Joe Root’s average dropped below 49. Has fluctuated between 49.09 and 50.93 since.

6 years since it surpassed 51.

 

[Johan]

ah so boosting Root's average above 51...

Pakistan:

 

[centurymaker]

Root and Kohli will finish sub 50.

Williamson and Smith in the 51-54 range.

This is stupid

This is stupid

I believe they’re listed by debut rather than ranking but yes, still stupid.

Taylor in this discussion seriously? Bloke has RPI of 35 without zim, ban and couldn't bat for life against quality bowling when pitch wasn't mega road. Stop it.

Would have most guys in your first list ahead of Kane, but he's better than Sehwag.

And he's better than the three batsmen in the next list.
