The year's coming to an end so lets see who you guys think was the best [Test] batsman of this year.
For me, the only and the obvious choice is Mohammad Yousuf. His record speaks for itself. He needs approx. 150 runs in one test to beat Viv Richard's record tally of 1710 runs in one year. You might say that more tests are played these days so obviously its easier to score more runs. BUT Vivian Richards achieved the feat in 19 innings, and so far Mohammad Yousuf has played 17 innings. He has only 2 more innings left to have a go at Richard's record. Along with that, Yousuf has already equalled Viv Richard's and Arvinda De Silva's record of most Test centuries in one year (7). So if he scores one more century in the last test, he will also break that record. Keep up the great work Yousuf!
I also think he is best batsmen of the 2006. But unfortunately Ponting got the Award, but I'd have to agree, Yousuf was the best batsman of the year. I'm sure that he will easily break both those records.
Obviously Yousef will break these records very easily,unfortunate for him that he misses out his Double hundred for thrice in this year now.I feel if he would have get thoise double hundered then he was going to claim that Best Batsmen Award(Test).He is in brilliant form middeling the ball very well and having the Average oif 200 plus ina aseries is fantastic.isn't this another record?
I also agree with you regarind Yousuf. As per the detail performance presented by cricketboy, Yousuf has been a great perfomer in this year. If he continues to play such cricket, he will surely get rewards.
