    Jack Hobbs vs Sachin Tendulkar

    Same here. Sobers could not have taken a wicket or a catch and I would have him over Kallis.

    Jack Hobbs vs Sachin Tendulkar

    I was willing to give a pass since he has a mixed record against WI. But now I realise that his records in Eng, Aus and NZ are spotty too. Honestly, Miandad might have a better away record.

    Garry Sobers vs Imran Khan

    The 4th bowler dreg was Walsh

    Jack Hobbs vs Sachin Tendulkar

    Yeah going over all this, I think I have to downgrade Gavaskar. I consider Hutton definitely better than him now.

    Jack Hobbs vs Sachin Tendulkar

    Hadlee wasn't anything in 76. We don't reward fifties once a series with ATG points.

    Steve Waugh vs Michael Holding

    Waugh maybe barely makes ATG level. Holding is just below ATG level. I go with Waugh.

    Jack Hobbs vs Sachin Tendulkar

    Hmm yeah he never had a good/great series against Hadlee or Lillee. A bit padded against WI. Great against Pakistan.

    Garner vs Holding

    Yes. ATG tours and pace for dead wickets.

    Jack Hobbs vs Sachin Tendulkar

    Crap. That sort of barrage can ruin any player.

    Jack Hobbs vs Sachin Tendulkar

    Viv was one of the 5 cricketers if the 20th century. I have gone through over a dozen Lord's Cricket ATG XI selected by cricketers of that era and he is almost always called the best. We don't need to pretend it's close as far as peer or pundit opinion is concerned.

    Jack Hobbs vs Sachin Tendulkar

    Yes. But saying Chappell didn't play long enough isn't really a big deal for me.

    Jack Hobbs vs Sachin Tendulkar

    To be honest, I thought Kohli in his early approached the level of dedication towards his craft that Sachin exhibited, but then Kohli fell off the cliff and seems to have lost the fire. I never got the impression Sachin care about anything but cricket.

    Jack Hobbs vs Sachin Tendulkar

    I agree, Kallis is leagues behind Sobers as a bowler. Kallis is a secondrate Sobers.

    Jack Hobbs vs Sachin Tendulkar

    Yes Tendulkar had a second peak but also a dip towards the end. Overall has a notable bump over Lara but Sunny was never rated near Viv.

    Jack Hobbs vs Sachin Tendulkar

    Only flaw is now India really.

    Jack Hobbs vs Sachin Tendulkar

    I definitely give him credit for WSC in WI.cant fault him for that. And he played awesome against Hadlee in NZ in 81.

    Jack Hobbs vs Sachin Tendulkar

    I don't think Sunny struggled against pace collectively. Just that Viv is stronger overall.

    Is there a difference between a greater cricketer and a better cricketer?

    Yes

    Jack Hobbs vs Sachin Tendulkar

    Nah. Sunny struggled against Lillee. Wasn't as awesome as advertised against the great WI pacers in WI. And SR is one thing. Viv rapidly changed momentum and demoralised bowlers.
