england's best batsman of the last 20 years is probably pietersen.
produced some incredibly high impact scores. cook's scores are often of less impact. barring injury cutting his career short, root will probably be considered better. |

Got some Pak at 5.2. It's a gamble rather than a really solid trading position but I don't rate many of England's top order and I do rate the Pak attack. Will have to decide when to jump off if they do take early wickets though as the market may love England too much to escape.

By:
I'm tempted with a punt on Pakistan for starters too FS.just as a gamble

Kp is withour doubt England's best batsman since 1970 but I think Root may well go on to surpass him. Not sure KP gets in my all time England X1 though!

03 Aug 16 10:57 you worried about the negative effect he'll have in your imaginary dressing room WD? Not at all! Might have forgot what my all time XL is but Hobbs, Sutcliffe, Hutton, Grace, Hammond would take some beating who bats at 6? I T Botham? |
