ten Doeschate has the highest average of 67 after 33 matches but obviously the quality of opponent isn't as high.
even if someone bats at 6/7/8/9 wherever it is still ridiculously hard to average 50 in ODI cricket, dhoni and bevan are way ahead of the pack still averaging over 50 after 200+ matches each. i reckon if someone else is to be up their then de villiers will do it, amla might hold onto a 50+ aveage with such a great start to his ODI career and kohli is there to.

Apologies for not mentioning high amount of ODIs being played; AB De Villiers is the one next who has the highest possibility to be around 50 after 200 matches; Hussey's average is falling very slightly; we have to wait for Amla, Kohli and Trott but all of them also have some high chances to remain there about 50 (as they are Ponting, Dravid and Kallis-esque I would say by the time they finish they will end around average of 42-45)
