I know right. I think my all time XI I'll either pick him as an opener or give him the gloves #IccTeamOfTheYear

Whatever it takes!!!
Think he perhaps defines the term of "knowing your strengths and weaknesses and playing according to that"... I can easily think of batsmen who can do more to good or great bowling than he can but I cannot think of one who will find a way to eke out runs on just about any kinda pitch against any kinda bowling attack. And the best thing is he makes his starts count, perhaps better than anyone else in world cricket. I always thought Sachin was the best at it but this guy is perhaps even better, at least in Test Cricket...

Cricket is more than just a game about statistics. Sangakkara's stats look superb and he is a superb player, but I still have many of his contemporaries ahead of him. In fact I don't even think he's the best batsman in the SL team of recent times. I have Jayawardene ahead of him.

My top 10 batsmen in the last two decades:

1) Lara
2) Kallis
3) Tendulkar
4) Ponting
5) Dravid
6) Jayawardene
7) Sangakarra
8) Chanderpaul
9) Amla
10) Hayden

Amla could make it further up my top 10 list as he's still got a lot of cricket to play.

we should do a 'battle of the second greatest batsman ever'. 32/64 entries. PEWS doing write ups for all of them. For each batsman Days Of Grace can list what his rankings say are their greatest innings. I can vote. Do it Dan

Its the same way old people get congratulated when they are able to go to the toilet all by themselves.

He always does this tbf. Trolls SL and Indian fans incessantly, then when he finally has some praise for either team or it's players everyone's in shock and hits the like button. Pretty sure his posts on Kohli got a lot of likes as well.

Imagine how many likes WW would get if he made a post about how disappointed he is that Narine doesn't have the balls to play cricket until the WC comes around. Same thing.

Sanga is simply a great of the game..the fact that he is mentioned in the same circles as the likes of tendulkar/lara is good enough for me from our little country...
