Jack Hobbs - 5410 runs at 56.94 16. Ian Botham - 5200 runs at 33.15 - I included down to 16 as the last 6 includes arguably some of the greatest batsmen (Jack Hobbs, who, had it not been for the war, could have topped the list. He boast 199 FC hundreds, the most by far of any batsmen) - Englands current batsmen Andrew Strauss is close to making this list, Kevin Pietersen is also fairly close.
