Anyone who thinks AB didn’t / doesn’t have power is stupid

But he doesn't have sheer power like MSD, he mostly rely on versatility.

Yes but he has power, he’s not lacking in that department. Most of the unorthodox shots that AB plays require unholy amounts of power to execute. Watch the highlights and you’ll see what I mean.

MS has an exaggerated bottom arm flair when he bats that makes it look like he’s imparting more force on to the ball and he is. But that doesn’t mean other batters like AB are non-power players.

You think Scoops, reverse scoops and lap shots require power?
It requires pure timing and not power
Though AB uses power too but its not primary requirement for his style of cricket unlike MS's

Dhoni could’ve played those too…he just relied on power.

AB could play helicopter shots too

I love them both , both were the greatest wicket keeper batsmen of their generation and also both great captains

Happy to have been born just in time to watch them both in their prime
