they aren't low. we have allowed malicde, ill will and bias to corrupt every level of our cricket. sarwan, darren bravo and gayle had their careers destroyed for perceived recalcitrance, that is the plantocracy-influenced definition of recalcitrance

well that's not true...both Desmond Haynes (42.29) an Gordon Greenidge(44.72) had better.....just to clarify having played 100tests or more.

KB does indeed have the lowest average among opening batsmen to play 100 tests or more.
His average of 32.90 is the worst. The second lowest is Mike Atherton at 39.14.
Everyone else averages over 40.

can you dissect further his average after 50 test?....cause batsmen get better with age/experience to a "point" whereby if you dissected their whole career their stats are usually better in the 2nd half than the 1st as they perfect their game an learn the art of batsmanship....just seems to me KB has got worse which apart from having the lowest ave he would qualify as being the biggest dunce!!!

Was the question posed in relation to openers only?

primarily for batsmen only with 100 test or more...selected for their batting only....so this excludes all rounders.

Cricinfo has done the legwork for us, if you scroll to the section "In the spotlight".
So, in conclusion, KB is the worst Test batsman to have played 100 tests.
Here are the stats (excluding wicketkeepers) to confirm the statement. Even the allrounders in the list (Kallis and Stokes) have better averages than KB.

No Test batter has played 100 Tests with a lower average than his 32.83.

it's not hate, it's the reality of our low standards .... he not only has the lowest average but has faced more balls than any other batsman ... it's not a lack of opportunities but lack of skill.
