Great Sachin

On back of the record shattering 200 by Sachin, I thought I’ll create a post about my opinion and gather your opinion on a very hot topic, whether i personally dont have any interest in sports, but i m writng just because of sachin's Unbelievable milestone feel me proud..
Finally, Saeed Anwar’s world record is shattered & by none other than Sachin after a long period of 13 years. People have expections
from Sehwag and Sachin in ODI to chase this magic runs, but sachin will create miracle nobody had thought..spring weather always fills colours in this little masters life..
Before 16 years first time sachin was asked to open in oneday cricket..Against kiwis in 1994 sachinn first showes his color and runs 82 innings played just 49 balls fumy. Sachin Tendulkar was the emergence of this.
The world biggest cricket player did not look back.. Sachin's first ODI century, his career [110 runs] the same year was made against Australia in Colombo on September 9..he waited 5 years for his first one day century..however?? but now this little master of cricket has a lots of records..and no cricketer even can't think about them..on tuesday when attacking batsman viru get out soon then sachin showed his original colour n create a milestone of 200 runs in ODI..what makes this innings is outstanding is that he played this innings in last of his carrier in age of 36 years and 10 monhs..
This innings came after 1961 one day international matches..sachin had already amassed both the highest no of runs and tons in one day and test alike..now he has to break only one record of Brian lara of 400 runs in test cricket..the greatness of sachin describes his records himself...five time he had scored more than 150 runs in ODI..now a question arises "is Sachin Tendulkar is greatest bastman of all time"?? i tried to find out d ans..with some facts..

21 years of international cricket performing against different bowlers all over the world, managing the expectations from 1 billion people, surviving the third umpires & super slow motion cameras which assist the bowlers, and finally scoring 93 hundreds(if you count the world record 200 along his hundreds), 147 fifties & 31,000 runs. How many batsmen in the world have done this before?

I am a great fan of Sir Don Bradman. I have preserved a cricket magazine which ran a Don special about 12 years back. So, I am not typical!

Now, the Don hadn’t played under lights, no One day internationals to run parallel with Test matches, no computers to spot his weakness & no hectic schedules. But to his credit(and he’s got plenty), Don played on uncovered(mean & fast) pitches without any protection, handled expectations & kept humble(just like Sachin), and had a long & distinguished career.

Batting averages will imply Sir Don is the best ever. But you consider the number of runs scored & Sachin is simply the best ever. So, what do YOU think?!

The best replies will be compiled on a special page called “The Fan Pulse” which will be linked permanently on the home page.

Once again, the question is:
Is Sachin Tendulkar the greatest batsman of all time?
