No he isnt. Broad is a good batsman who should develop into a number 7 in Tests. Bresnan is good, but not as good.
Neither are (yet?) all rounders.
Bresnan is a better batsman than Broad. England don't have an all-rounder but Bresnan is the nearest thing to it.
One to agree to disagree on, but I would happily place a bet on who ends up with the better record.
