Srikant: One of the most unpredictable players the game ever saw. Afridi: Probably the most 'pure slogger' and a very powerful stroke maker. Lance Klusner: Great hitter Andrew Symonds: He is very aggressive Sanath Jayasuriya: Was a pure slogger in the world cup that Srilanka won. Then he matured into a very good batsman. ------------- The robbed that smiles steals something from the thief. |

I love how in these threads "ever" generally seems to equate to the last 10 years

Hussey's good at hitting fours but not the big shots. He once hit 4 fours in an over! ------------- Consistency is the key. |

| Shoaib Malik can hit the ball also, also Imran Nazir springs to mind once him and afridi made an explosive 100 opening stand against south africa, sharjah final. |

| I would like to say either Afridi or Klusener from the modern day form of cricket. Both brilliant bats who can take any side apart. |

Brett Lee can slog, but also defend as he showed in last years Ashes to save the Old Trafford match. He is a very good player to have, very useful as he is great with bat and ball (though ball more obviously so) ------------- County Sim on extended break until I've got less work and more free time. When I have a specific date, I'll post it in the thread. |

| If this is "The best Slogger EVER" Then you can't forget Sober's six sixes. He was actually caught on the fifth ball but the guy fell over the boundary line! |

| true, but I think calling him just a slogger would be doing him a great disservice |
