In my mind, the only name that comes to my mind is Vusi Sibanda, His shots were so pleasing to the eyes and he failed to live up to his potentials. He was such a great talent and even batsman of Younus Khan’s calibre once said that Sibanda would one day become a star.

BS.
You can see more style in one Raza innings on a YouTube game highlights than anything Sibanda did, who couldn't keep his place in the team longer than 5 minutes.
Besides stylish means nothing in cricket.
Taylor and Bennett look like retards at times in the middle but are effective.
Look at Chanderpaul too.

Like assuming a weightlifter will make a good prop because of muscles.

Graeme Hick?

Sean williams

Shoaib akhtar once said on a post match show in 2020 that williams plays like marcus trescothick, when zim beat pak in super over

Let’s keep statistics and success aside, I am talking about the elegance and timing with which he follows through with his shots. No one here disagrees with me I guess that he was a great talent who failed to make it big at the highest level.

Both Sibanda and Matsikenyeri looked good when in form, unfortunately they struggled for consistency.
