Though not world-class players, Vikram Solanki and Steve Davies at Surrey at both very elegant.

I want to add Marvan Atapattu to the list as well. When he was on he had great shots, especially that cover drive!

Can't believe no mentions for Mahela or Kallis!! Could watch those bat all day. Also used to enjoy watching Martyn and Vaughan bat. Of current players Kane Williamson is very easy on the eye, as is Ian Bell.

In my minds eye, I am the most stylish batsman I know (particularly the leave).

However, when I watch myself on video, I have to admit to myself the horrible truth - that Lara just about shades it!

- I've just had a flashback to the film 'Twins'.
