What's so special about the 70s and 80s when no West Indian player in there?

Remove Warne and Steyn from the 2000s. Too overcrowded. Add...... Sangakkara or Ashwin (or dare I say Kohli, 2014-18 was really peak)

Done.

Has to be Tendulkar.

A true phenomenon. Ended the decade as the best cricketer in the world.

More consistently owned the decade than Warne, Lara, Ambrose and Akram.

I don't see how Ambrose did better than Tendulkar in the 90s. By 95 he was past his best.

his best series of 90s Triumps Tendulkar's best.

Literally Every single commentator used to call him Jack Kallis, not Jacques, that's a tongue twister.

90s Ambrose> 90s Donald> 90s Sachin = 90s Steve Waugh >90s McGrath >90s Wasim >90s Pollock> 90s Warne >90s lara> 90s Walsh > 90s kumble> 90s muralidharan > 90s Waqar.

That's a pretty silly criteria. Lara should be no.1 then.

Tendulkar was a teen sensation start of the decade and then had eight years of worldclass standard.

He averaged 58 that decade well ahead of the rest, only three others averaged over 50 aside from him.

That's Because Steve Waugh/ Australia played majority of matches against big teams

You need both consistency and ATG series, think Ambrose has both in suffecient amount, while Lara was lacking in extended excellence.

Sure and I rate Waugh highly. But Tendulkar was the man who stood out most that decade.

Can someone post Ambrose and Sachins stats for the 90s including team by team records, home and way etc. Sorry if that's asking too much.
