velu Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Yeah but this list (of players who consider Sachin best after Bradman) is highly biased towards Sachin do you have any data to support this or just throwing the stone in the sea :giggle: Link to comment
bulbul Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Sachin>>>Lara , but why should it matter :hmmmm2: Link to comment
SLICKR392 Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 and sachin rates lara above himself :giggle: :hmmmm2: Link to comment
adi B Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Lara rates Sachin above himself...so don't get these random quotes....anyways :agree: with Blee yup.this should settle it once and for all Link to comment
CSK Fan Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 do you have any data to support this or just throwing the stone in the sea :giggle: Why not look at any World XI made by any ex cricketer, from Bradman to cricinfo and see who features in them? Lara only features in second world XI. Sachin is the only modern player to feature in all world XIs. Not to mention direct comments by Bradman or Richards Link to comment

Yoda-esque Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 In a test match scenario, if there was one person I would trust to bat for my life,it would probably be Kallis.The man is a wall. Link to comment

Old guy Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Kallis better than Sachin, Dravid and ponting - Ganguly :cantstop: another thread coming :blink: No just his opinion same as yoda e..but I think tendulkar if u only consider batting was better again just my opinion and I am not a fanboy :cantstop: Link to comment
velu Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Tendulkar...he was easily better against more quality sides while Kallis bullied attacks like India . tendulkars legacy was built on ODI heroics .. hardly he won matches for us in tests esp in away matches Note:- i presented the proof for my above point with stats years before , but the targeted audience is yet to counter it :giggle: Link to comment

Agree with you that given Sachin has played 200 tests, by the law of averages he must have had enough chances to win matches away, which he failed. But the blame is not entirely his. Our bowling is so ordinary that it is difficult to blame the batsmen fully for these things. Link to comment
Desi Cartman Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Thank god, the world was just wrong with Lara > SRT statement. Im glad that balance has now been restored. Link to comment
