Sir Donald Bradman of course

C'mon, no player has got anywhere near to his average in test cricket. Sachin's a might fine player, but Bradman is out of his league. Bradman is one of the greatest sportsman of all time. 99 average in 52 games will never be achieved again

Answer 9

dead is don bradman and alive mathew hayden

Answer 10

Haven't seen Bradman batting so I'd say SACHIN TENDULKAR

Actually I'm not judging on record but the number of shots Sachin has in his book.

Bradman was great but sorry I wasn't fortunate enough to see his batting.

Answer 11

Sachin Tendulkar in ODIs

Don Bradmen in test

Answer 12

I think sachin, bradman

and then dravid

dravid is an excellent batsman and a gr8 wicket keeper

he's an excellent fielder too

so he'z third on the list

Answer 13

Sachin the little master

Answer 14

OF COURSE SACHIN  BECAUSE BRAD PLAYED ONLY A FEW MATCHES BUT SACHIM STILL GOES ON THE FIELD TO FACE YOUNGER , AGGRESSIVE BOWLERS . BUT STILL PROVING HIMSELF AS IN HIS LAST TOUR OF AUS HE KNOCKED AUSSISES AND LED INDIA TO VICTORY

Answer 15

Don Bradman

Answer 16

Bradman. It will be his 100th anniversary on August 27th.Today, there are a few good ones, Sangakkarra,Kallis,Hayden,Smith come to mind & of course Sachin & Jayasurya.

Answer 17

Don Bradman

second best: none other than my favorite: the little master Sachin!

Answer 18

Sachin Tendulkar.

I was not there to see how Don Bradman batted.So I cannot comment on whether he is best cricketer of all time.But Tendulkar has piled a lot of runs in every country.
