| robin are you dumb(lol)??....
dude dint i say VIV IS ONE OF THE MOST DESTRUCTIVE BATSMEN OF ALL TIME.....I DID....CHECK AGAIN
i just said lara is more destructive than tendulkar not viv...IMO viv richards,brian lara,jayasuriya,gilchrist etc are all TOP DESTRUCTIVE BATSMEN OF ALL TIME in ONE DAY CRICKET...
Techincally Lara is ARGUABLY THE GREATEST...he had it all...his first test match hundred in australia against australia in just his 6th test was a DESTRUCTIVE 277 with 38 fours at a strike rate of 74...not to forget it also saved west indies in that match...now 277 isnt even the overall H.S. of their career for many batsmen like sachin etc....and if you want me to stretch this lara vs tendulkar debate i can do so by showing you some facts...lara is the only batsman in cricket who has got all scores of 100,200,300,400,500 in first class cricket...sachin hasnt got that...lara has 9 double hundreds against sachin's 5 if iam not wrong...lara has 2 triple tons as well in test cricket out of which one is quadruple...and lets not forget sachin hasnt got any hundred in the top 10 fastest hundreds in tests or odi's....lara is there in both the lists...
all i was trying to say is sachin is a GREAT batsman but he is not a demolisher like lara...
there are genuinely GREAT batsmen....there are GREAT hitters
LARA was both....which is a very very rare thing in cricket. |
