I respect your opinion very much. Nobody has been able to destroy the fiercest bowling attacks like Viv did. He is one of a kind

Greatness is determined by one's superior mental ability which is employed in one's discipline or skill and that is demonstrated in Brian Lara's ability to concentrate for a longer period than any other batsman that has ever stood at the wicket . Greatest is determined by the power of the mind the organ of which is the brain. Brain Lara is the greatest, he is the number ONE 😊

I have said this many times. Sobers was the master but the best batsman i have seen is Lawrence Rowe. He is the one that i would go back outside and pay again to come back inside the park. There were others who gave me pleasure in watching the game, Viv Richards, Lara, Kanhai, Tendulkar, Gower, Majid Khan, Barry Richards.

Bradman is the best of all time. Lara was a great batsman and a joy to watch, definitely deserving of his third spot, slightly edged out by Tendulkar for 2nd methinks. I would put Viv Richards ahead of Ponting though. Ponting always struck me as a capable and methodical batsman that was a bit of a workhorse. He had good pull shots and a capable cricket mind. Viv Richards however just exuded danger. He was more like a Dean Jones style of heavy hitter that could play just about any ball. Not only would a bowler have a hard time trying to work on a way of getting him out, but they'd be hard pressed to avoid being hit for 6 while trying to do so. So for my money it goes Bradman, Tendulkar, Lara, Richards, Ponting.

Again a great list, putting Bradman at no 2 below Sachin was a courageous things to do- the Don averaged 100 plus in his away tests- amazing! However I am still inclined to agree with your choice of Sachin Tendulkar as the No 1 batsman of all time. He is. The don played only against England and maybe South Africa. Cricket was so different in his time. Sachin Tendulkar by all yardsticks is the best batsman of the world, no doubt about that! However I am just a bit uncomfortable with one choice - Greg Chapell. There are a number of batsmen from test playing nations who could be more than a match for Greg Chapell. Geof Boycott of England, Sunil Gavaskar of India, Javed Miandad and Younis Khan of Pakistan, Martin Crowe (whom Wasim Akram rated as the best player of swing bowling ever) of New Zealand, Allan Border of Australia, Hashim Amla of South Africa.... If Greg Chapell can be there so can any one from my list. I would have put Sunil Gavaskar there. Otherwise, an excellent list

Thank you! I felt the same way about Bradman and Sachin, Bradman only played in 2 countries (England and Australia) and only against England apart from 15 combined tests against India, South Africa, and West Indies who were all emerging nations at the time. Since Sachin has broken nearly every batting record over 200 tests, the #1 spot just had to go to him. #10 could've gone to any of those players you named, but Chappell was named "the best since Bradman" for a reason

Viv Richards should have been all time best but he never took his talent seriously and batted carelessly much before he retired. Kallis had great appetite for runs. Pointing is ranked higher which is wrong. Gavaskar should have been there in the list as he started the era of how to bat against hostile n very good fast bowlers.

should add Mohomad Yusuf or Javed Miandad from Pakistan and Alastair Cook from England if admin is ONLY concerned with the averages and total runs. greatness should not be measured by individual performance. The winning percentage of Sachin's centuries was 53%, pontin's 55%, and Lara's 23.52%, a great player should be a part of the team's success. the best example is Virat Koli, he will break Tendulkar's record, but a few years later everyone will forget how they missed the 2023 World Cup opportunity and will talk about his total runs.

With due respect to other greats, it is Bradman , Viv and Sachin in that order for me when all formats combined and all things taken into account.

Only records don't tell everything. Cricket is an entertaining game. People watch the game for entertainment and thrill. Richards, Lara, Kapil Dev, AB Divilliers and the likes entertain the spectators by thrilling display of fearless batting. Tell me how many ICC tournaments Tendulkar has won for India single handedly? Only Kapil has done that. Kapil along with Yuvraj and Dhoni are great entertainers. I rate them above Tendulkar. Only by amassing records one cannot be great.
