SACHIN TENDULKAR VS BRIAN LARA

Cricketers Views on

Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar

Desmond Haynes

In terms of technique and compactness, Tendulkar is the best

Viv Richards

He is 99.5 per cent perfect. I'd pay to see him

David Boon

Technically he stands out as the best because of his ability to increase the pace at will

Steve Waugh

There is no shame being beaten by such a great player, Sachin is perhaps only next to the Don.

Barry Richards

Sachin is cricket's God:

Sunil Gavaskar

India's fortune will depend on how many runs the little champion scores. There is no doubt Tendulkar is the real thing.

Mohinder Amarnath

A complete batsman ? he's the best in the business.

Jeff Thompson

Sachin is an attacker. He has much more power than Sunny. He wants to be the one to set the pace. He has to be on top. That's the buzz about him.

Dennis Lillee

If I've to bowl to Sachin, I'll bowl with my helmet on. He hits the ball so hard.

Steve Waugh

You take Don Bradman away and he is next up I reckon.

Shane Warne

I'll be going to bed having nightmares of Sachin just running down the wicket and belting me back over the head for six. He was unstoppable. I don't think anyone, apart from Don Bradman, is in the same class as Sachin Tendulkar. He is just an amazing player.

Shane Warne

When it comes to judging the best among these fabulous band of batsmen, my vote goes to Tendulkar. He has an uncanny ability to come out on top under different circumstances and under different conditions, whether it is Test cricket or one-day internationals. And more importantly, he has done this so young.

Michael Kasprowicz

Don't bowl him bad balls, he hits the good ones for fours.

Allan Border

Hell, if he had stayed, even at 11 an over he would have got it(after India won the Coca-Cola cup in Sharjah).

Greg Chappell

He is a perfectly balanced batsman and knows perfectly well when to attack and when to play defensive cricket. He has developed the ability to treat bowlers all over the world with contempt and can destroy any attack with utmost ease.

Mark Waugh

It's scary, where the hell do we bowl to him: Allan Border. Yeah mate, but that's with all great players:

Ian Chappell.

Sachin's better; Lara is more risky outside the off stump.

Mark Taylor

He's a phenomenon. We have to be switched on when he plays allow him no boundries, for then he doesn't stop.

Ian Healy

Tendulkar is the most complete batsman I have stood behind. I saw the hundred in Perth on a bouncy pitch with Hughes, McDermott and Whitney gunning for him ? he only had 60-odd when No 11 came in. I've seen him against Warne too.

Ian Chappell

Harder he works, the luckier he gets.

Richie Benaud

He has defined cricket in his fabulous, impeccable manner. He is to batting what Shane Warne is to bowling.

Mike Coward

Sachin's the best. I've had this view since I saw him score that hundred in Sydney in 1992. He's the most composed batsman I've ever seen.

Mark Waugh

The pressure on me is nothing as compared to Sachin Tendulkar. Sachin, like God, must never fail. The crowd always expects him to succeed and it is too much pressure on him.

Glenn McGrath

I still think Tendulkar is the best batsmen in the world ahead of Steve Waugh and Lara.

Sir Gary Sobers

He is currently the best batsman in the world.

Tony Grieg

There's no doubt about it. He is the best.

Geoffrey Boycott

Technically, you can't fault Sachin. Seam or spin, fast or slow ? nothing is a problem.

Peter Roebuck

Sometime back I had written a piece that said that Sachin's the master and Lara a genius with his head high up somewhere. That's it.

Kieth Fletcher

A little genius. Reminds me of Sunny Gavaskar.

Eddie Barlow

He is Sachin Tendulkar. I hope he stays Sachin Tendulkar. We need a new player, a player in his own way. He has a technique which is the hallmark of a great player. Everything indicates that he will be a great player and I am sure he will prove me right. Reminds me of Barry Richards.

Barry Richards

Destined to be a great.

Paul Strang

What we (Zimbabwe) need is 10 Tendulkars.

Gavaskar

The original little master, Sunil Gavaskar, had said that the champion cricketer was an example of the perfect batsman.Gavaskar praised Tendulkar for the stillness of his head, his straight back-lift, the ease with which he played his shots and their wide range.

Greg Chappell

I'm impressed with Sachin. The hype and expectations on him is greater than even Bradman faced in his day.

Indian coach

Sachin carries a weight of collective expectation to the crease that few can comprehend. Bradman would not have had the weight of expectation that Sachin has on him every time he went out to bat.

Wasim Akram

"Cricketers like Sachin come once in a lifetime and I am privileged he played in my time"

Brian Lara

Sachin Tendulkar was a peerless batsman with a lot more to offer. Lara, Test cricket's leading scorer with 11,294 runs, regarded Tendulkar the best batsman he ever watched despite the prolific success of Australian captain Ricky Ponting and South African Jacques Kallis. Lara said: "For me, the best batsman in the world is Sachin Tendulkar. I admire Jacques Kallis' consistency and Ricky Ponting, with the purple patch he's going though. Everybody gets 15 minutes of fame. But if there's one person I've admired over a 15-year period, it's definitely Sachin."

Steve Waugh

"we won with ten , but lost to one" told after the sharjah cup finals

Sir Donald Bradman

I saw him playing on television and was struck by his technique, so I asked my wife to come look at him. Now I never saw myself play, but I feel that this player is playing much the same as I used to play, and she looked at him on Television and said yes, there is a similarity between the two... his compactness, technique, stroke production... it all seemed to gel.

Greg Chappell

I'd like to see him go out and bat one day with a stump. I tell you he'd do okay.
