How is Faf overrated?

Averages 69 in Test cricket, played one of the most important innings in Proteas Test history when he scored his magnificent backs to the wall 102* on debut.

He's a fine T20 player, averages 30. And he's the captain.

His only blip is his ODI record.

Yeah Faf is not overrated !

Faf has had a very good time in tests and that knock of 110* on debut was amazing. I was referring to his elevated status in ODI and how he has become an integral part of the team despite not doing too much. As for the test record, surely that average will come down once he plays more.

Joe Root

I see people taking about him being the next so and so.

Faf's improvement over that last 2/3 seasons in first class cricket, at present, justified his 69 average in Test cricket.

His overall first class record is offset because he was used as a specialist field for the first 5/6 years of his career.
