Ranking Top 10 current Test batsmen irrespective of ICC Rankings
Test cricket is into an interesting phase in the last couple of years.
2. Kane Williamson
From his U19 days, Kane Williamson was interpreted as New Zealand’s future star. He led his team to the U19 World Cup semi-final in 2008. Two years later he got the national call-up for both ODI and Test team. On his debut against India in 2010, Williamson notched up a century in Ahmedabad. Along with handling the pacers with ease, over the years Williamson has become a potent player of spin as well.
He continued scoring runs throughout his career and he hit his purple patch in 2015. 2015 was Williamson’s year. The right-hander scored 1172 runs at a mammoth average of 90 and placed himself perfectly in the fab four. Williamson averaged 62 and 59 in 2017 and 2018, respectively.
Williamson is an astute mind as a captain. He led the Kiwis to a historic test series victory in UAE last year. His average of 64 in 6 matches in the UAE proves his mettle as a brilliant batsman in dry conditions. In recent years, the Kiwi skipper has become a complete test match batsman. Williamson is known for his class as a batsman and as a human being too.
