The greatest left handed batsman

[T20]

I woldn't rate Anwar as equal or better than Sachin and Lara. As for this topic, I think Lara is the best.

well i think Santah Jayasuria is the best Left Handed Batsmen i've ever seen. lara,ganguli or anwar never has won the world cup for their team. but jayasuria did it for his counrty. i think he changed the oneday game. from that list they r all good. but garry sobers is the best

Stupid choices in this list. I wont be wasting my vote here.

Stupid choices in this list. I wont be wasting my vote here.

and why are they stupid?

 

[ZoraxDoom]

Sobers was greater than Lara.
Anwar, Jaisuriya, and Strauss should be there atleast.

 

[icyman]

i voted for sobers but i feel that you shud have inl\cluded more people in ur poll

 

[shahid6995]

and why are they stupid?

Greame Smith? Bobby Simpson, who isnt even a lefthander? A ton of people left out of the list some of whom have already been mentioned in the other posts? You really want a reason Andrew? Of course Lara and Sobers should be in the list but other than that.... its a completely wrong list.

Wheres Gilchrist
commentators say he is one of the most destructive batsmen ever who can change a game in the space of 10 overs in a test or ODI

I think you have revived a topic in which nobody has posted for 7 long months ! zzzzzzzzzzzzz

At the moment the best lefty is lara but of all time you just cant compare them all unless you've seen them all.But I'd say Lloyd or Sobers

 

[aussie1st]

Lara with all his massive scores is always going to be up there. Gilchrist should definitely be on the list

 

[angryangy]

Duh, the equal best were Gary Sobers and Graeme Pollock. Argue with this and you're some kind of crazy person.

 

[ZexyZahid]

It surprises me that Saeed Anwar isn't in this list.

Of this list I would choose Lara.

 

[carl johnson]

for me it is brian lara

Im indian, but WTF is ganguly doing there??
or even graem smith, someone mentioned strauss should be there?

I woldn't rate Anwar as equal or better than Sachin and Lara. As for this topic, I think Lara is the best.

Anwar was brilliant but not as good as sachin or lara.

Depends what this thread is about. If its about best player out of these left handers..then it has to be gary sobers by a mile. If statistics is what were going by(and since statistics claim bradman was the best batsman ever) then
Gary sobers must be the best cricketer ever, probabily along with bradman. if this is a poll of whose the best batsman out of the lot, then it could be lara.
