@Karnawarrior Dude, I'm not going to be pulled into this debate. Just enjoy the video and buzz off, mate. I'm sick and tired of Sachin's and Viv's videos being ruined by retarded cunts who are not worth polishing either man's shoes.

@Karnawarrior Listen, both you and yahudidushman need to STFU. Richards is a great player and so is Tendulkar. More importantly, they are both men of honour and wouldn't argue like you two retarded cunts are doing on YouTube. If you are a Sachin fan, let me tell you that the little Master wouldn't be pleased seeing the kind of language you've used against Richards.

@sanjay49700 seems like you just have been following cricket where patta wicket...so-called highways are the name of the game....refer to 80s when..

seaming pitches

no carpet outfields

no mega bats

not so much cricket - therefore, bowlers much fresher and powerful

no bouncer-restriction rules

no Zimbabwe or Bangladesh

and for Viv, he did not need a helmet either to pulverise and dominate attacks...

viv averaged 40 against pakistan and 44 against aussie and nearly 60 and 55 against England india and England why? and man pitches were slower than toay back then. but they were uneven so that balances things out.

an btw everyone wears helmets these days. so what's your point? human race has become cowardly, less skilled in general?

viv is one of the greatest modern batsman. in my books h stands alongsie lara and tendulkar as the best. but he is not undauntedly the best ever.

[ashokatibrewal]

@shr011104 viv destroyes aussie bowlers in WSC aussie leg. but did you know he average 33 with a highest of 62 in 9 complete innings in the windies leg? why? because thommo wins court case to come in the packer squad? or that in the aussie leg non test grounds were used which were sometime tiny primarily for footie? or that dennis was a line and length bowler by the time.

[sanjay49700]

@141cbc look at the youtube videos pitches were not that fast those days. english pitches actually look barren.

and somehow bowlers, batsmen have all declined in quality? maybe next you will claim the ford t- moel was the best they ever built

[141cbc]

Agreed. Viv is on a different plane altogether. Better bowling attacks, who were kept fresher, no bouncer restrictions, slowish outfields and largely helpful picthes for seamers and bats much superior these days....Sachin would have been a fraction of a batsman that he is in this era of batting-friendly rules environment. Viv was something else!!

[shr011104]

Well, DONT castigate all Indian fans are morons. Agree Sachin is one of the best, but NEVER in the league of Sir Viv. He had the GUTS to play the fastest of all, Thommo & Lilliee, WITHOUT a helmet in those days, where NO bouncer rule was there. The game is so much favoring batsmen today that many, many Sachins are due to come, but NOT one Viv. Long Live King Richards.

[HACKO2230]

Whats with all the moronic Indians coming on here talking about Sachin Tendulkar?! If you want to circle jerk each other over him, go watch another video of him and rid us of your stupidity. Oh, and Viv.... you are the man! Respect from Australia!

[mrsyd01]

Sachin is a great batsman BUT never has & never will have, the balls to play like sir viv did !! ..

[manish05able]
