Misbah-ul-Haq is making all the headlines after some really consistent performances with the bat for Pakistan as skipper. He lies second in the all time list of batsman with the highest averages as a captain in Tests.
Sir Donald Bradman is still untouchable with an average of 101.51, and it is very likely that he will stay there for decades to come.
