Don Bradman in one of his interviews said,"when I see Sachin Tendulkar playing, I see myself in him."
Those day's Indian cricket like one man army.
And Tendulkar himself acknowledged Bradman as the greatest ever, saying it was an honour for him (Tendulkar) to be mentioned in the same sentence as Bradman.
Other Legends (Retired ) ABD, Rahul dravid, Michael Hussey, Brendon mecCulum, Virendra sehwag, Chris Gayle.

@@knowledgeconsumer1289 okay....my bad, sorry
You would have Alan Border or Steve Waugh from Australia before Hussey. Great captains the both of them, and mentally tough. You could always rely on them to score the runs you needed.
Jayasuriya should be a honorable mention..the guy who revolutionized the way of playing the whole sport .along with players like Sehwag
Absolutely.. ABD, Virat, Dravid?
@@ashwindeshpande4834 but sehwag and jaisurya change cricket playing style,
I agree. During the 90s and earl 2000s, Sri Lanka produced some of the most formidable batsmen, but there are a few more that need to be mentioned. However, this is a top 10 list, and I guess they chose the top 10 based on their overall career statistics. So, kudos for the list.
Jaysurya?? Legend?? Pls it should be "Aravind De Silva". The Mad Max!!
his average wasnt that great doe
Bradman is so unbelievable it's almost surreal. In the 1930s test series there was a London news paper that simply ran with two words spanning the entire front page story "He's out" and everyone knew who it was and why it dominated the news - or in 1932 July 21 the front page of the London newspaper simply said "Bradman bats, and bats and bats" and everyone got the message loud and clear. Not long before his death a reporter asked Sir Donald (The Don) if the modern greats of the game were up to your level - and he stunned the reporter by saying "you know I think they are"... then he slyly added - "but you know I am in my 80s now"...
One thing to add to the brilliance of Bradman was that he played during an era that did not cover the pitch overnight so any rain etc overnight effected how the pitch perfromed the next day (a rain effected pitch is virtually always an advantage to the bowler).
@stan roach well, for example, Hedley Verity has one of the best records of any bowler against Bradman (possibly got his test wicket more than anybody in history??). He took 15 wickets at Lords against Australia on a rain affected pitch. On a good wicket, he was often overseen and not selected.
Also, boundaries brought in today, 6 ball overs, batsmen wear advanced protection and the bat technology makes the old school batsmen look like they were using a paddle. Then you've got advanced training, diet, fitness and training aids and technology. We all know what one of his training drills was. Players fly today, they don't take a boat. Bradman's career was affected by no less than a world war. He was 40 years of age when he captained the infamous invincibles to victory. Bradman suffered from chronic muscular problems after the war, and an army test revealed he had poor eyesight. Modern optometry would have helped him immensely. So, yeah, the list goes on. It's extremely difficult to argue this, including the valid point you make.
That era there was no rules for bouncers and not much protective gear. No helmet, no gloves etc.
Don Bradman was voted the best sportsman from any team of any kind in the world.
One thing regarding cricket is it's entertainment value. I think Australia was much more entertained in Bradman era when cricket was all but a capsule to whoever reaches to watch. For any almighty that's tuff business to handle. So old is not just gold but diamond.
Tendulkar is to Cricket what Michael Jordan
is to Basketball and Muhammad Ali is
to Boxing

When they mention the statement of "Don Bradman being the best sportsman of all time" they aren't wrong - his batting skills averaging to 99.94 are basically double the average best players. MJ in the NBA is basically tied with Wilt Chamberlain on an average score of 30 per game, the rest of the best in the high 20s. Now imagine a player scoring an average of 50 pts a game in a career spanning decades and you have Bradman.
There can never be another Sir Don...who played in some of the toughest playing conditions.
Played in england and Australia for lifetime?
Most of the matches against england
Yeah, but he also did not face tough fast bowlers that Sachin faced. But still 99 average is mind boggling
There was only Australia and England at that time. And cricket was a game of royals. So Nope he is overrated
Don't forget that he played on uncovered pitches also
Bradman played 56 test matches on uncovered pitches with no helmet AND a rather large war in between, and averaged 99.94 runs per innings. That's just an unbelievable stat. Also, he never hit a 6 during his test career.
52 tests actually and he hit 6 sixes in tests; five against England and one against India. But I understand where you are coming from; he was not noted for hitting sixes.
And back foot no balls then not front foot - even in Bradman’s day no other batter got remotely close to his average
Pitches are very good at that time and not much variety, bouncers frowned upon, no bodyline bowling, only one major opponent existed back then. Bowling speeds were military medium mostly. The only series he played against what is now normal bowling, he averaged in 50's. That type of bowling modern batsmen face everyday now.
Literally can't believe Virat Kohhli isn't in this list that guy has an average of nearly 50 in all formats!!
After retirement he will be included
He's good. But there are players who made greater impact. Maybe by his retirement he'll be there on the list. But might not be in the top 10
@@venkatadri1299no these are all old batsmen. greatest of all time thing. but virats career is not over so yeah.
He will one day in top 4 .
3rd maybe.
@@venkatadri1299 He probably won't be able to tackle all these legends shown in these lists even when he have better stats. But the impact these players bought to cricket was everything. At a time where cricket wasn't so developed as it now, when it didn't have much fans. Virat can't do what Sachin or Vivian Richards did. He came in when cricket was already revolutionized.
To put into perspective how great Bradman was, his test batting average was 99.94. The 2nd best is only a little over 60. No Batsman comes close to him
Just look at the quality of bowlers that time , it was the worst
@@Hmmm783 why did no one else from either team, average over 55?
@@Hmmm783 The pitches used to be uncovered with no bouncer limits rule in place. And there were bowlers like Harold Larwood.
@@Hmmm783 Yep, you're a monkey alright 🤦♂
@@Hmmm783 That comment doesn't make any sense. If that were the reason everybody else's averages would be much higher too and that just isn't the case.
Ricky pointing got lucky
Two of the best bowlers of his time were in his team
Macgrath and Warne
You don't consider the likes of Bond (NZ), Donald (SA), Muralidaran (SL), Pollock (SA), Younis (PAK), or Akram (PAK) to be top-notch bowlers of that era as well.
Your argument does not make sense
He was a legend. It's not like other countries had bad bowlers. Apart from those already mentioned by @muzza67 there was harbajan, dale steyn, zaheer khan, shoaib akhtar...i could go on. And Ricky Ponting was a brilliant captain.
@@nrb3413 McGrath was on a totally next level than any other bowler from that era .

❤true
There is a very strong case for saying that Bradman is the most dominant player in any sport ever. He averaged nearly double the number of runs of anyone in the game before or since. I would love to have watched him play.
Sir Don Bradman is the goat of all sports no question. In cricket the bats have evolved over time from what they used to be, so the Don essentially was getting an average score of 99.94 with a plank of wood.
Sir Don Bradman says about Sachin that this kid playing exact like me outstanding.
I CANNOT BELIEVE THEY MISSED OUT GARFIELD SOBERS AT #2! Garfield (Gary) Sobers who played for the West Indies from 1954-1974 plus Barbados, South Australia, and Nottinghamshire (English County Championship) and the Rest of the World XI. Is the greatest player I have seen in my lifetime and I know most cricket followers of my generation would probably agree. He laid waste to my England team so many times and I admired him for it. He was a wonderful natural athlete; a left-handed batsman, and bowler who started as a left arm finger-spinner, became a left arm wrist spinner, and then a high-class fast medium bowler, a superb fielder anywhere, captain and dedicated entertainer. Jacque Kallis a great all-rounder is the only one on a par with his figures; but if you were offered a chance to see either Sobers or Kallis score 200 you would choose Sobers if you knew anything about cricket. Sobers maiden century in Test cricket was 365 not out; the highest Test match score from 1958 to 1994 (Brian Lara passed it). He was also the first batsman to hit six sixes in an over (for Nottinghamshire vs Glamorgan 1968). He had the highest aggregate of test runs when he retired from test cricket and the highest batting average (57.78) of any of these players except for Bradman (of course, AND Herbert Sutcliffe who was briefly mentioned as Jack Hobbs's famous batting partner).
I am appalled his name was not even mentioned in this video; all the players mentioned in it (who played after him would, almost certainly, have named him as second only to Don Bradman.
BTW one thing you must bear in mind when comparing statistics of cricketers across different generations is that players of the last 30 years have had the opportunity to play a lot more international cricket than earlier generations so tend to have greater aggregates of runs and wickets.
Mojo gets it wrong quite a lot but maybe they were saving him for no. 1 All rounder.
@@bignose8614 They had Kallis in there! All they see is the people who scored more runs because in their times they were able to play more tests because more tests were played.
Sobers is idolized by many of the greats ... some of whom (alive today) claim he is the best batsman they have personally seen ... all in addition to what he could do as a bowler, fielder, captain ... Did he ever keep wicket?
I'll ditto that. Sobers definitely at #2.
A mistake I noticed at the end 1 Tendulkar has Billions of followers, not millions he's practically Indian Jesus. 2 Sir Donald Bradman was the only one on the list that had a new form of bowling invented to take him out of the game - England created a tactic known as leg theory or "body line" it is the reason only 2 "bouncers" are allowed to be bowled in an over because it was incredibly dangerous to bowl non stop at peoples body's and head b4 the days of helmets to try and get them out like this- riots were the result when the English tried to employ leg theory that was successful against even Bradman in India.
Are you saying they bowled bodyline against India in India in 1933/34? I can find no record of it. England were captained by Douglas Jardine, but Larwood and Voce were not on the tour. Several players were struck during the 2nd test match; however all but one were English batsmen; Mohammed Nissar was recorded as bowling very fast for India and there were problems with the pitch.
Viv Richards entertaining and popular in Australia at that time!
Good list, but a top 10 without Gary Sobers seems weird.
I agree
I've watched cricket for 30 years...I've seen Sachin, Lara, Ponting, AB, etc etc, but the shot that rings in my ears, mind, my whole body, is Mark Boucher playing a stunning back foot cover drive...I'll never forget that shot
Unlucky to get that eye injury
That shift+left+s in Cricket 07 is like a reincarnation of Mark Boucher. He played that shot impossibly well and always scored sixes with it.
Not a single batsman from this generation made to this list reflects the level the cricket has gone down. Miss the golden era
Don Brahman is such a mystic legend ..I would have love to seek him play
Rahul Dravid and AB De Villiers are actually also pure Batsman. Both should have been included in this list.
It is really impossible to do a ten only list-Grace, Hutton, Hammond, Greg Chappell, Border, Steve Waugh, Gower, Headley, Sobers, Weekes, Hanif Mohammad, Inzamam, Yousuf, Kohli, etc could all be argued top 10. I was pretty amazed that Kallis was in over Sobers.

Well this video missed out on a fact .... That Sir Sachin Tendulkar was a genius spin bowler too❤️
He wasn't a genius spin bowler. If he had concentrated on spin he probably could have played as a spinner. Let's be a bit careful how we bandy the word "genius" around
If he's a genius spin bowler.wtf is Shane warne .stupid bloody comment
You should check The Ashes... It is the greatest international sporting contest in the world.
Btw... That video is correct when it said Don Bradman was the greatest sportsman in history... Not just cricket.
Bren Lara and Sachin Tendulkar is best my favorite on old time next react sanjo Samson the master blaster ipl hitter
Definitely check out Viv Richards, one of the most entertaining players ever. His swagger was almost as intimidating as his batting, and so often he made it look like the bowlers had turned up just to give him batting practice!
I loved watching him walk to the crease. His walk announced "The King is here".
There is a fantastic documentary called "Fire in Babylon" about the 1970s/1980s West Indies team that features him heavily. Highly recommended.
@@RichardGadsden Love that film. Saw it at the local cinema where they relayed a live chat with Thommo, Collin Croft, & couple others.
Top 3 Morden day
ODI : Kohli, Rohit, Warner
Test : Kohli, Smith, Root
I wish they included other interesting batsmen like Sanath Jayasurya, Abraham Benjamin(AB) de Villiers and Rahul Dravid. They were great run scorers though not the greatest nor had phenomenal average. But their batting techniques were very unique and troubled bowlers to no end.
It is said that getting Dravid out was an achievement in itself. He won't score runs but keep playing till bowlers got tired from running and throwing the ball at him, causing much frustration among the fielding team.
that's why the nickname-
The Wall of Cricket.
yup ab deserved to be in list .. the complete batsman .. and developed lots of shots which todays players wanna try ..
There’s an excellent Australian TV mini series from the 1980s called Bodyline, about a notorious Ashes test series in the 1930s, and focusing on Bradman. Basically, England devised a strategy to try to deal with Bradman by intentionally bowling at the batsmen rather than the wicket, hitting them in the body and head so they had little chance of pulling a shot. This was before helmets and body padding. While it’s a fictional account of real events, it highlights the incredible skill of the players as well as the outstanding sportsmanship of Bradman and others in the face of some very nasty tactics by the opposition. There have also been documentaries about that period and Bradman himself that are worth looking up.
Cricket Raaz posted a video a few weeks ago called "Revenge of the Caribbean, when the king was hit on the head". This one is about Sir Vivian Richards and how a barrage of Australian bouncers created the fearsome Richards you guys just heard about. You guys should check that one out, great video to react to.
Gary Sobers amazing batsman! South African
Gary Sobers was west Indian not South African.
TDK. Try West Indian.
Yes, he is one of the best batsmen. He makes batting look effortless, just pure skill.
Best ever has to be Bradman,saw him in the 1948 tour where they were unbeaten,scored a century and the side also included one of the best fast bowlers of all time Lindwall,what a team .
But then again Sir Bradman only faced couple of teams during his time even though the game was in it's raw form probably the most dangerous pitches and uneven ground but i feel Sachin Tendulkar is the most complete batsman who faced the "Golden age of bowling" and he dominated it...

Wrong.
Don is GOD and Smith wrecks India aswell.
Its hard to explain just what its like to be in the ground when Tendulkar came out to bat, the anticipation and expectation was something other worldly, he carried the weight of a billion people on his shoulders, and did so brilliantly, but of the eight on this list I have seen play my favourite to watch was Kumar Sangakkara, he was so stylish, and a real gentleman
Don Bradman easily the GOAT batsman, specially considering the poor pitches & equipment of those times. Nobody else even came close to his performance ... before, during or after.
Sunil Gavaskar should be rated a lot higher, probably as the greatest opener ever, considering that he performed so well against many of the greatest fast bowlers ever, again with not so great pitches & equipment, mostly abroad.
Bradman never played half decent spin bowling.
You guys have to do some sort of reaction to Brian Lara. He is the most enjoyable batsmen to watch and most of the top cricketers all say they would love to be able to bat with his style.
Viv Richards was amazing, you could sense the game change when he walked in
My favourite opener was Gordon Greenidge, a mainstay in the great West Indian sides of the 1970s and 1980's
I'm from India but Ricky pointing is my favorite ❤
Sachin Tendulkar should have been in number one spot. Even Don Bradman himself has said that Tendulkar played just like him.
Yeah, what with his average being pretty much HALF of Bradman's.....................................
The Don is King.
Go cry india
R.I.P 'The Don' Best Batsman of all time!
don bradman is the best by a long way, as has been said his test average of just under 100 came at a time when the bowlers dominated the game and it was far more difficult to score runs. the england cricket team developed a strategy called bodyline, where they basically bowled attacking his body rather than trying to get him out to limit his effectiveness
Don Bradman played all his matches in Aus and Eng. He did not play any match on turning pitches in subcontinent. That's why his average is so high.
@@matgranger5061 you are right but he played 37 of his 52 tests against england the strongest test nation at the time and never played weaker modern test nations like pakistan, sri lanka, zimbabwe, maybe he could have averaged higher, that's a scary thought
@@Ian-hg8gx LOL, Australians are weak against spin. They always struggle in subcontinental conditions. Ricky Ponting had an average of 26 against India in India. Sachin played in an era where teams like Pak, SL were better than England.
@@matgranger5061 don bradman played on non curated pitches with a skinny bat with the war all around him . He is the best by far if that was the case there would be a inflation in batters average from he’s era which there is not your logic shows you have no idea . Australia are hopeless against spin I agree just like the subcontinent nations can’t handle pace and bounce
@Joel Brewer Playing spin in Asia is a whole different challenge than playing spin in Aus/Eng. Ball usually don't spin much in Aus/Eng, except day 5 may be. Spin is the reason Aus has not won a test series in India in the last 18 years. You can't compare Sachin with Bradman. Sachin has played in every country, not just in Aus and England. Thus, had to adjust his technique according to different conditions.
reacts to 'kumar sangakara' one of the best batsmen and one of the best wicket keepers of all time..he owns many cricket world records.such as:-
* Most Fifties in consecutive innings(Test matches)
* Fastest to 12000 runs(Test matches)
* Most dismissals in career(One-Day Internationals)
* Most stumpings in an innings(One-Day Internationals)
* Most runs in a calendar year(Combined Test, ODI and T20I records)
* Most Hundreds in consecutive innings(One-Day Internationals)
* Highest partnership for the third wicket (Test matches)
* Most catches in career(One-Day Internationals)
* 5000 runs and 50 fielding dismissals(Test matches)
* Most runs in career 2nd place(One-Day Internationals)
* Most fifties in career(One-Day Internationals)
* 2000 runs and 100 wicketkeeping dismissals(Test matches)
* Most matches in career 4th place(One-Day Internationals)
* Most fours in career 2nd place(Combined Test, ODI and T20I records)
these only few of them. he is not just a batsman he is a great allrounder. batting,fielding,wicketkeeping... he is good at everything. A great captain for The Sri Lankan Cricket Team.Sangakkara won the ICC Cricketer of the Year in 2012 and won many other awards for both Test and ODI cricket. And he is a ICC Hall of Fame inductee.
The legendary Sir Don Bradman, standing tall and fearless against skull cracking, body battering fast bowling of Harold Larwood (England). Sir Don, the man who invented pull shots to nullify the bodyline bowling of England led by Douglas Jardine. Jardine was the first to introduce bouncers, then called Bodyline bowling. To those who haven't, just watch Tele series "Bodyline".
When Don Bradman was a kid, he would hit the ball against a wall with just a stick, he's a legend.

Thanks for doing videos about the amazing sport of Cricket. Check out some of the old footage of matches. Batsman didn't wear protective equipment. True tough guys.
It's very refreshing to watch you guys truly appreciating the skilled game of cricket!
I had the great fortune of meeting Don Bradman as a young fellow. A very humble man and showed genuine interest me as a young person. He is the only great I met in my life (I met several listed here) who actually sat and talked with me for a few minutes.
God of cricket Sachin Tendulkar 🙏🙏😍😍
For perspective.. statistically to be as dominant as Bradman; Jordan would have had to average 43 PPG, Jack Nicklaus 25+ Majors and Ty Cobb a batting average of .392
Watch Rahul Dravid ... technically he's surely in the top 10 of all time ....Watch the highlights of his test matches ...Yup , he's not an ODI player like Sachin , Lara & Ponting ..But in tests he's the most dependable along with Sangakara & Kallis
And we was voted India's #1 Test batsman by Wisden ahead of Tendulkar.
Sachin did not excel in every country he had a problem of getting homesick (tour’s ok but playing full time overseas hence Yorkshire ccc sending him home fact) the don had the bouncer invented for him (body line tour) and still knocked it out of the park truly the greatest batsman ever
The Don enough said
Bradman number one forever!
The Don. Sir Donald Bradman one score 100 runs in 3 overs back in the days when it was 8 ball overs 1st over: 6, 6, 4, 2, 4, 4, 6, 1: 33 runs. 2nd over: 6, 4, 4, 6, 6, 4, 6, 4: 40 runs. 3rd over: 1, 6, 6, 1, 1, 4, 4, 6: 27 runs. This was in a game back in 1931 in a match between Blackheath and Lithgow. Playing for Blackheath, the then 23-year-old completed his century in just 18 minutes.
Bradman was so good the English invented a whole new way of plating just to stop him. React to the Bodyline series. Cricket so violent it almost caused an international incident between Britain and Australia and they had to change the rules of the game to stop it.
Bradman and Hobbs played on uncovered i.e. much more variable pitches and a back foot no ball law that had the fast bowlers releasing the ball a couple of yards cl of ser than in the modern game.
On the whole not a bad list but very modern centric.
As an Englishman there weren't many batsmen we really feared, but Bradman was definitely top of that list.
Sachin Tendulkar is no.1 cricketer in the the world nd he is called god of cricket. He hits most run in the world.
The God of cricket Sachin Tendulkar

"I've seen God, and he bats at no. 4 for India" - Mathew Hayden
"Sachin is cricket's God!" - Barry Richards
"Tendulkar is to Cricket what Michael Jordon is to Basketball and Muhammad Ali is to Boxing." - Brian Lara
"There are 2 kinds of batsmen in the world. One Sachin Tendulkar. Two all the others." - Andy Flower
"I'll be going to bed having nightmares of Sachin just running down the wicket and belting me back over the head for six."- Shane Warne
"Cricketers like Sachin come once in a lifetime, and I am privileged he played in my time." - Wasim Akram
"Sachin is a genius. I'm a mere mortal" - Brian Lara
"When you bowl at him, you are not just trying to get him out, you are trying to impress him. I want him to walk off thinking' that Flintoff, he's all right, isn't he? I feel privileged to have played against him." - Andrew Flintoff
"Don't bowl him bad balls, he hits the good ones for fours."- Michael Kasprowicz
"I saw him (Sachin) 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...hi compactness, technique, stroke production... it all seemed to gel." - Sir Don Bradman
"I didn't see Don but to me, in all my years associated with the game, I haven't seen a better batsman than Sachin Tendulkar."- Sir Viv Richards.
"Gentlemen, he (Sachin Tendulkar) is the best batsman I have seen in my life. And unlike most of you, I have seen Bradman bat." - John Woodcock
Bradman batted when they used uncovered pitches
Can you imagine averaging on uncovered pitches and facing Larwood?
Umpires back then were extremely stingy about giving lbws
Kohli already surpassed Ricky ponting in terms of centuries he scored and with fewer innings, he played. The only one left is Sachin Tendulkar. Kohli will be one of the best cricketers/arguably the best the cricket World has seen till now

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...hi compactness, technique, stroke production... it all seemed to gel." - Sir Don Bradman
"Cricketers like Sachin come once in a lifetime, and I am privileged he played in my time." - Wasim Akram
"Sachin is a genius. I'm a mere mortal" - Brian Lara
"Tendulkar is to Cricket what Michael Jordon is to Basketball and Muhammad Ali is to Boxing." - Brian Lara
Tbh all these 10 are no.1 no comparison .... all faced different quality players competing against them and different cricketing rules and environments
You say you don't know some of the players in video.but if once you understand this game (completely) about three formats (tests, ODIs,t20is).i bet you won't leave this game untill you die. This game is like a drug.
England new T20 World Champs. Didn’t lose one wicket chasing India’s total in the Semi Final and beat Pakistan in the final.
Ms dhoni one of the greatest batsman and most destructive finisher
I would put Virat Kohli in that list as well, even though he’s still playing
great list of amazing batsmen. Bradman stands alone though. His dominance is best seen in the test cricket averages. second highest average score per innings is 61.87 runs. Bradmans career average is 99.96. The next highest average of the guys on the list is Sangakkara at 57.40 . He was amazing.
99.94 mate
Don Bradman played all his matches in Aus and Eng. He did not play any match on turning pitches in subcontinent. That's why his average is so high.
@@matgranger5061 There are lots of reasons why it is difficult to compare players from different eras, that's certainly true. It's true he never played on the sub continent, he also never played on covered wickets or played as many matches as modern players. There was a 6 year break for war and of course travel to places like England had to be done by ship, which took about 6 weeks or so. However, we can still compare him to his peers, no other player of the time was anywhere near his stats, and they had all the same detrimental conditions. We can also compare the opponents he played against and how they went in India. Players like Douglas Jardine increased their batting averages in India, because India was not then the powerhouse of cricket it is today. None of this is intended to malign or denigrate the batsmen that are now compared to the Don, they are not reduced in esteem because he was great. They are great too, but statistically and comparatively to his peers the Don was the greatest of all the greats.
@@matgranger5061 True. And umpires were very stingy about giving lbws
Gangly, Segway and Dravid. Let’s not forget that Dravid , ganging and da him were the first to make 300+ partnerships- with Dravid being a part of the first 2 such partnerships.
It's a great game that has seen so many various brilliant t players from so many corners of the globe. Players would define eras, yet it is such a team game that it was competitive regardless.
Where is the King
Not lifting a WC yet again.
MS Dhoni inspirational story of Cricket Journey
You have witnessed God !! Sachin..it's enough ❤️
Yeah man!
The 1960s film is a bit grainy but you might enjoy Garfield Sobers scoring 6 6s in one over.
It very sad to see that Rahul Dravid is not there in this list for me Rahul Dravid was the best he has best technique of all time
Don bradman rebirth in india and became sachin Tendulkar
bhai don bradman died in 2001 and sachin was born 1974
That's REALLY offensive. Plus you overlook the fact Bradman was alive for MANY years after Tendulkar was born and playing the game.
Test states------ thendulkar
I consider sachin,ponting,sunil viv richards and lara better than sir don bradman because cricket was not so developed at the time of bradman.
There's a story about Viv Richards that a bowler in first class cricket had him swing an miss, and then taunted him "See this red thing, it's called the ball". The next delivery, Richards launched it over the fence into the crowd and replied "You know what it looks like, go f$%^ing find it"....
EDIT: Useless fun fact, the ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corporation) uses the same PO Box number in every capital city - the number they use? 9994. Don Bradman's batting average on retirement was 99.94.....
Kendra lust reacting on cricketing video very happy to see this 😂😂
Sachin sir god of cricket
Wrong.
The Don is GOD.
World test first 10000 run little master Sunil Gavaskar 🔥 legend
Batsmen are ok but bowlers are the true demolition men and more exciting to watch in my opinion.
