Just because...... I can. :D

Bevan? :eek: Are we discussing test matches of one day cricket here? :) Nope. The Don. :D

Hits the nail on the head. But Sachin can never pull a Lara. The shots, aggresive ness, arrogance. It's something that the little man lacks and The Prince has in abundance. If you saw his innings today you would know what I mean. Pure flipping arrogance, yet class in his shots.

Sachin is on the decline, Lara is at his peak. Not his fault the knocks weren't matchwinning. Funny how you are the only one I've ever heard express this sentiment.

Lara has scored more test runs than Tendulkar. Played far less one-day internationals thus he doesn'thave quite the same amount of runs. Their test and one-day averages are just about on par with each other. Lara has far more double hundreds in test cricket. More triples (Sachin has...

It was in reference to all of you claming that Lara ISN'T a team player. So if a man who has scored quite a few match winning/memorable centuries for his team, with 4 or 5 of them being ranked in the top 20 of all time. Why is a man who has scored fewer match winning/memorable test match innings...

Never said that. Keyword: Sounded. The cold hard fact though, is that he has been virtually alone throughout most of his career. Only people like Chanderpaul and to a lesser extent Adams bothered to help at times. Tendulkar has had the like of Azza, Dravid, Ganguly, Laxman, Sehwag, even...

Lara IS NOT THE ONLY MEMBER OF THE WEST INDIES TEAM!!!!!! Why can't some people get that through their thick sculls? ffs! All your flipping arguments seemed to be centered around the fact that he should be doing it alone. What about the other ****ing 10?!?

......and Lara just loves batting against him. Check the stats of the last West Indies tour to Sri Lanka.

West Indies since the early have been known to have the worst set of tailender to have ever graced test cricket, and it's not The Prince's fault either. The Lara innings you are talking about is the 153* against Australia in 1999, and yes it was Walsh who stuck with him at the end. The same...

46.3 Danish Kaneria to Lara, OUT: Heavy breating and puffing, loses concentration and the ball goes through the gate and Kaneria takes a vital wicket after quite a hiding Ask Kaneria who's the best he's bowled to. I'm sure he'll say Lara, just as Murali and Warne said.:D

Yep. Appreciate greatness while you can.:) He's gone now. Tiredness got the better of him.:( 130 off 120 balls 16x4 4x6 Simply The Best

What about Lara's 153*, 213, 277 all against the best team in the world? He has made other superb centuries including the 3 he's made this year, but it's not his fault the other 10 men on the team suck donkey's ass.

Take a look at the 100 he has just made and you'll all see why he's the best. Fantastic innings coming off a run of poor form. He now has centuries against every test playing nation. Has equalled Don Bradman's 29 test centuries.

My apologies.

You're a funny guy. Should have a regular spot on Comedy Central. I'm just hitting you with the cold hard facts and that's all you can come back with? Pathetic.

After almost 8 months without playing any first class or test cricket Lara came back against South Africa recently and made 196 in his very first innings. It's something that he's done it more than once too. Can you all name a memorable innings from Sachin? I'll give you two from Lara for every...

Hah! It was meant to be.:D I'd like to think the thread starter was talking about batting wise, because the whole world know Lara doesn't bowl. Lara is the better batsman. :boxing

I'm talking about at the end of each year, not the beginning. Oh, and Lara averaged 400 in one innings, it was a not out too. So he wins there also.

In the Port-of-Spain and Bridgetown test matches recently versus South Africa, Lara made 196 and 176 respectively. In both those innings he accounted for more than 60% of the team total. Isn't that what you call a top batsman trying to win games for his team? What about the remaining batsmen...
