Yashasvi Jaiswal vs Kamindu Mendis vs Rachin Ravindra vs Harry Brook

[PlayerComparisons]

40.05 avg for smith (20 tests)
50.94 avg for Root (22 tests)
40.28 avg for Kane (34 tests)
39.46 avg for Kohli (29 tests)

It’s pretty cool he predicted it right pretty early. All of them became greats and the best 4 bats of this era.

Yeah its not like any of them got off to lightning starts. Pretty impressive.

It would have been awkward if one of them stayed averaging around 40 while the rest went up to 50 lol

 

[Johan]

what makes it better was that he created the fab 4 right after Kohli's horror tour of England in 2014

On the poll, I hope these 4 have the same sort of careers the previous fab 4 did.

Just based on whatever little I have seen of them, at the moment, I would go -

Brook
Ravindra
Mendis
Jaiswal

It would have been awkward if Mr.Crowe included Darren Bravo and made it a Fab 5 .

At the time Bravo ticked all the boxes, similar age to the Fab 4, comes from cricketing royalty (West Indies) , and his record at the end of 2014 was 32 Tests , 2311 runs @43.60 which was better than Steven Smith , Kane Williamson and Virat Kohli ..So Mr.Crowe really was a genius with this prediction before his death .

Rachin Ravindra should not be on this list. He is atleast a level below the other 3 in Test cricket , maybe more ..

He only averages 39 in Test cricket currently and even that is bloated by a 240 against a weak SA bowling attack that toured NZ, I think Gill will have a better Test career than Ravindra.

I would say Jaiswal has the best chance out of these lot to be the greatest of his generation, he's the youngest and his appetite for big scores is really good. I've been impressed with Kamindu too, looking forward to seeing him later this year . Brook has talent but Bazball could lead him to being inconsistent.

 

[BazBall21]

Mendis or Brook I think

 

[HouHsiaoHsien]

Any one of Brook, Jaiswal or Kamindu. Love all three as well, but my heart is with Kamindu in tests and Brook in ODIs

 

[sayon basak]

One of those polls which will look pretty odd after a decade maybe. And really tried to sneak rachin ravindra in there.

Saud Shakeel or Bedingham could easily end up being a part of the fab 4 replacing one of these guys

I think it’s gotta be four guys around the same age

I think it’s gotta be four guys around the same age

Fab Four and Fab Five are both alliterations of the same letter.

Then let's track the progress of Ravindra. Or we might need to start calling it a tremendous three
