2. Garry Sobers
3. Jack Hobbs

The vote for the #4 batsman of all-time begins now.

The Contenders

Tendulkar...if he loses now, im going to go crazy

 

[Dasa]

Tendulkar.

 

[adharcric]

With Hobbs gone, I'll go for Tendulkar as well.

For me it was a choice between Lara, Tendulkar and Viv Richards. I'm going to go with Lara. All three have similar averages and played against quality bowlers for the majority of their careers. Lara's ability to score massive totals (8 double hundreds - including 3 against Australia) got him over the line for me.

[FaaipDeOiad]

Toss up between Richards and Chappell for me. I'll go Greg Chappell.

 

[Dravid]

Sachin is being underrated because of his height *joke*

Very true, but Sachin's consistency wins out against Lara's ability to score massive hundreds: Tendulkar. And he scores more hundreds too, though not as many doubles.

4. Viv Richards

tbf, Tendaulkar's scored a whole whooping 2 more centuries than Lara. Not really a valid point to separate them on for mine.

Sachin has had atleast a decent performance more than Lara...thats what he meant...sure Sachin got 2 more 100s, but Lara has gotten out on a lower score more often.
