Speaking on the Love of Cricket Podcast, Buttler picked India’s batting icon Virat Kohli for his iconic cover drive, calling it a thing of beauty. Virat Kohli’s cover drive is pure elegance that has made many of its fans.
For rock-solid technique, the former England captain has selected the ‘Wall,’ Rahul Dravid, for defense. The legendary Indian batter and former head coach was known for his ultimate wall of resistance. Dravid's defense was built on technique, patience, and mental strength.
In an exciting twist, Buttler has picked India’s T20I captain, Suryakumar Yadav, for the sweep shot. Suryakumar’s sweep shot is fearless and innovative, leaving his fans in awe of his flair in the T20s. When it comes to attitude, the English batter crowned the West Indies great Sir Viv Richards as the ultimate symbol of confidence. He was known for his fearless attitude that intimidated bowlers.
Two West Indies icons make the cut in Jos Buttler’s Dream Batter
And to complete the package, Buttler said the overall dream batter would be none other than South African legend AB de Villiers. The former South African captain was known as "Mr. 360" because of his rare ability to play shots in every direction of the ground.
Whether it was behind the wicket, over the keeper, scoops, reverse sweeps, or powerful drives, AB de Villiers could hit the ball anywhere. And the Proteas legend’s unorthodox style, quick footwork, and creativity made him one of the most dangerous batters of his generation across the formats.
