Anyway Bell one of those cricketers that look pretty in the eye but don't deliver the numbers.
generally people love them or hate them, this thread shouldn't even be about bell so taking this thread back to topic voted for Lara and Tendulkar.
Lara because he was the best batsman to watch in my era watching cricket quite sad wasn't able to see all his career only saw the last few years.
Tendulkar is the most complete batsman in the last 50 years.
No one has ever average 40 + against all team with good sample size or 40 + in every country.
Tendulkar was also the most complete batsman ever but sadly after the injuries in early naughties he stopped becoming more attacking and was more of the batsman people remember now.
but he could in his day bat like Lara or some of the modern attacking players these days.
one of his greatest knocks wasn't even a proper game.
destroyed Pakistan attack in a exhibition t20 game in 1989, by reports that was a mordern day T20 innings.
