Sachin Tendulkar

Forget retiring, he is right on the top of ICC rankings, above ponting and co.
 
Just as people seem to jump he bandwagon about him not being what he use to, he pulls out some spectacular innings
 
Yes he is. The greatest player since Sir Donald.

Some stern competition.

Players like Headly and Hutton don't count because they only had to play against three other teams, and didn't average 99.
 
All great players, but IMO Sachin is better than all of them. Even Don said so.
 
I would count Viv Richards ahead of Sachin from the old matches I have seen from 70s and 80s.
 
So would I, and an overwhelming proportion of judges seem to rate Sobers as the greatest Batsman of the post-Bradman period.
 
I rate Richards above Sachin, but only just.
