Disagree on Buttler, I think he's followed where Morgan and Pietersen lead

Don’t think Morgan or Pietersen, played the ramp shot, as much or as good or with as much consistency of success as Buttler does mind.

I agree they don't but Buttler wasn't the first player to play the ramp. I don't remember anyone switch hitting before KP or playing shots like this before Morgan:

No doubt Buttler is a fantastic executioner but I just feel that he's following the true innovators in KP and Morgan as nobody played they way they did for England before
