In my opinion, I like allrounder players because they can do every move and I am also training to become an allrounder player. I also want to know others thought on this question and also alois say me the advantages and disadvantages of both types of player.

Hi Abhinav,

Most of the top players are offensive players now.  It is difficult to defend against a good attack consistently.

It is good to develop the all round skills but still look for the attacking opportunity when you can.
