KW by a huge margin. But these people still has to prove themselves in IND on turners. 😛
I cant believe i am saying this but smith looks so freaking hillarious when there is some swing. 😆

I dont think any of these 3 batsman will play well against ashwin ,jadeja and mishra in indian pitches theymay perform very well against pakisthani spinners in uae and shrilankan spinners in shrilanka , but these 3 batsman will fail against indian spinners in indian conditions , because of excessieve turing pitches , Kohli Captaincy , Ashwin ,Jadejeja , And Mishra Form and Due to SG Ball which turns more than other balls
2) Smith Had Scored 1 Double Century And 2 Centuries in England .

All three are great, but I think Smith is a tad better.

All round better player in all conditions against all attacks. More consistent when it comes to home & away performances.

The Pitches smith scored were super flat . He has to prove himself on the green and swinging pitches like Lords 2014 where rahane scored a century.
Smith will as always fail on indian pitches but i have hopes KW and root may not because there technique is strong. The reason smith succeeds is because of his unorthodox technique. Smith forces the bowler to change his plans because of his different technique. And when the bowler does that it becomes more easy for smith. If a bowler continues to bowl on good areas in a swinging pitch smith will eventually fail.

If The Pitches Were Super Flat Why England Lost 2nd And 5th test vs Australia .

Because no team has the batting power to match the australians on these flat tracks. The world cup, the recent ODI series and the 4 test series v ind in aus is a testament to that.
AUS prepare flat and dead pitches to take the bowling out of the equation and it just becomes a batting game and the team which has better batting will win.

World cup : AUS won because they won the toss and got the chance to bat first, the chasing in world cup semis got to ind.
4 test series:
1st test: FLAT pitch , any team could have won but we lost it due to brain fart of our batsman.
2nd test: Again even more FLAT pitch, Situation on 3rd day was so dire for aussies that they may have to forfeit the match but a freak injury to dhawan in nets and we paniced.
3rd test: FLAT PITCH and draw.
4th test: FLAT PITCH and draw.

The recent 5ODI series: All match were a slogathon. We won the 5h one because we kept our head and didn't panic.

Now to the ashes series: how can any team get all out for 60 🤣 who scored 400/500 ??
Simple answer, they can play only only on flat pitches. 😆

To be able to answer your question I need to follow their matches regularly which i don't So I don't think I can really pick the better one having said that they all are top quality players .
But from what I have seen of them I will choose Joe Root for his consistency across all the format and scoring runs all over the world .
