Lara came up the batting order (from 4 to 3) when WI were struggling in Australia. But look at what Sachin did in England this year. Though he knew others were struggling, and poor Dravid being thrown around in all position, he never once volunteered to get out of his comfort zone and take up the challenge. Sachin is only good when the pressure is less, while Lara always used to thrive under pressure.

well,it didnt surprise me given how Unfair they are against him even after he was "Pushed" into retiring by west indies Administrators! he is the best test batsman of the modern era..sachin need 15 innings Extra just to catch up to him and given that he was cheated out a couple of times before he made 226 vs Australia! he took back his record under career-ending pressure,so much feats 153n.o that not one of those batsmen on that side could match& bearing the weight of a very weak team!

Prince Lara is simply the greatest match winner of all time in test cricket, can't imagine his best innings came under such a huge player. It is not always necessary to score 50 or small 100s every second match like Tendulkar which have less impact on outcome of series rather to have a series like BC Lara in 1998 against aus 153*, 213,100 simply single-handedly draw the series for WI, and the only obstacle against Australia. Few big series have more impact than getting 50, 60 runs

Friend.. I say both are Genius and not Comparable... U are simply divided that one is ODI and One is test batsmen..If Lara is a Great test batsmen and why he had many and many forgettable serieses??? He played MArathon innings like 277, 213, 375, 400* and kept his average around 52... He has great style and technique but not consistant!!! ...I am watching cricket Since 1990....particularly Sachin and Lara...They are simply awesome to watch...

Seshu Mamillapalli . define the word consistent. Because for a person to be an atlas you have to be CONSISTENT all year round! Tell me a record that is worth breaking and Lara will go for it without a shadow of a doubt! The only man to handle extreme pressure and rise to the occasion everytime day and night! When you have a strong team it is easy to play, but when you got a weak team it is mount Everest peak of thinking and concentration and acceleration!

Even a blind man can tell how much run scored by Lara of each ball. And don’t need commentary by Ian bishop and Holding. Just hearing the sound of wood hitting that hard leather u can tell it’s a boundary. Like bullet shots , beautiful. Azar, another master had super soft hands and so many shots, u could hardly hear the ball touching the bat, so soft touch , angle it in the gap, 4 runs. No power read at all. Two master class super stylish bats. We don’t get to see this kind in today’s cricket.
