    I went to middle school with him and played junior Rugby with him. Was a good mate. But even back then we all knew he was going to be a great batsman. He was also a pretty decent footballer as well. Was normally the winner of one touch, one bounce. Didn't grow that much though!!! Plus because we have the same first name we were referred to by our surnames. And mine ain't that great!!!!

      I don't know, I can watch both just as easily. I prefer style over slogging, like most cricket fans, so with you there, but I would also never classify Gayle as a slogger. There is an art and a skill to hit as far and cleanly as regularly as he does, no doubt aided by his physical size and strength. He also has two test triple centuries, which speaks to a high level of concentration as well. Bell is stylish no doubt, though. Funnily enough their test averages are almost identical. 42.7 for Bell and 42.2 for Gayle.

      Yeah, that surprised me. They came here as the best team in the world but then lost 4-0 in England and Australia in succession.
      But a year later they had their revenge against Australia, drubbing them 4-0 to return the favour. It was a strange era. England, India, South Africa and Australia all won The Mace but couldn’t keep it for long because Post Ponting, none of the big teams could win consistently away until South Africa went on a run for a while the year after.

    The most pleasant batsman I have ever watched after Rahul Dravid. Good against swing, played spin well, and scored a lot of runs because of his rock-solid technique. In my opinion, he was underrated because he played with Kevin Pietersen, Alastair cook, and Michael Vaughan. I expected him to lead the English team after Cook's retirement, but ECB had other ideas.

    I'm biased by being an England fan but Bell is easily my favourite player to watch when playing well. I think that it's a real indication of how easy he could make the game look that he finished with an average over 42 and many still talk about him as though he was a failure. That average doesn't mark him as one of the greats but the way he could play at times suggested that he should have been. If you were to watch just a little of Bell and Steve Smith, I'm sure that you'd think that Bell was the one averaging 20 more than the other. Just goes to show how much of a mental game cricket can be. Regardless, Bell was a fine servant of England cricket, having all but won them one of the home Ashes series with several centuries in the series.

    What a batsman. Cant help but notice how defensive Dhoni gets in a test match when it isn't going his way. I've actually noticed that on a number of occasions, especially in overseas tests. Not sure why no one appreciates the match winning passion Kohli brings to every test.

      Dhoni is best for limited overs cricket
      But Kohli just changed India in test cricket and made it more dominant
      In test as a captain Kohli > Dhoni
