who is the world numberone batsmen

KP

Chanderpaul

Its really funny how people give others thumbs down just because their favourite batsmen was not voted. For those who do this, please check the official ICC rankings. Save yourself the embarrassment. Its a bit like disagreeing that 2+2=4 jus because you like the answer 3 better.

that would be my grand mother

no clue but it could tendauker.

chanderpaul

At present l would say Chanderpaul, though Ponting has been good lately.

World No.1 is Shiv Chanderpaul currently. Here is the Top 10 list:

1] S. Chanderpaul
2] K.C. Sangakkara
3] Mohammad Yousuf
4] D.P.M.D. Jayawardena
5] K.P. Pietersen
6] M.E.K. Hussey
7] Younis Khan
8] G.C. Smith
9] R.T. Ponting
10] G. Gambhir

Tendulkar is at No.18

Edit: Thumbs down for telling the truth? Ok, l say Ricky Ponting is the best batsman now. The legend is back with 200 runs in this test.

Shivnarine Chanderpaul


He averages over 106 in the last 2 years of Test Match cricket, he is almost impossible to get out.

If your Indian, you could be looking for the answer Sachin Tendulkar?

the link is self explanatory for highest number of runs and centuries in both forms of the game ~

god bless!

the best all round batsman is tendulkar! he can play any shot & can play against spin, pace or swing on any type of pitch in any condition without difficulty!
when tendulkar is in form, l will tell ya, there aint none better!
even sir donald bradman said tendulkar is the best batsman he has ever seen! his technique is re-writing the batting text books, it is absolutely perfect! he can play all round the wicket, & u cant shut him down! & he is dominating! he is the best since bradman!

Hussey is runs as a percent in series played work out to 7.73 whereas Shiv is is 9.49, Mahela is 10.79, Sarwan is 10.28, etc. & hence l feel that Hussey can not be first
