When both players are on fire...

Which is the better batsman to watch??

Hayden is a great stroke player but has so much power....he makes it look effortless....whilst Gilchrist can smack any ball anytime, anywhere

For mine.....Gilchrist gets the nod slighly for sheer entertainment.....

Hayden gets my vote, for much the same reasons as I think Nath is the best AFL player - he is the more consistent performer at a supremely high level and looks good too

Well, PP'03, since you put it that way ... Gilly. He hits a higher percentage of boundaries and gets dropped less. Lol.

Well one generally faces the new ball while the other doesn't

Also depends where the match is!! If its in India then Hayden anyday.

Hayden is great but give me Gilly. He is the most explosive batsman in world cricket and turns many games on his own blade.

Gilly by a mile!

You're showing admirable control, Mrs Taz.

Yes, I realise it was only out of two batsmenm but you did really well not to mention Slats.

i think when both batsmen r on fire,i think they are gr8 2 watch,especially gilchrist,just the way he plays his shots,and also hayden,when on fire is also great to watch,but i think gilly is more of an attacking player than hayden,at times i think hayden takes abit more time to fire up than gilly does..

cheers bryan..!!

LoL ok Donny point taken I talk about Slats too much but you haven't seen anything yet wait until I see him for 5 days straight next week I think you will be deleting my posts! That's if he is playing if they drop him I'm going to be killing some selectors! Anyway back to the original topic Gilly is more entertaining as he is an aggressive player as pies4ever mentioned and that reminds me of someone I love LoL!
