@spiritwithinxx you are just another sachin fanboy, fredrick spotthah (or something) bowlled at 90mph before the likes of bradman, when you watch some of the fast bowling with their braced front leg and arim snap they were quick.beleive me
@oshawaxpress since all the purists always talks about uncovered pitches and how difficult it was to bat in those time then how about present day bowlers they must be far better than all the past bowlers by a big margin since the pitches r flat nowadays,all batsman also wears protective gearings,may i say that bowlers may be so worse in past that even with uncovered pitches and without any protection many batsman averaged 50+ then
Bradman scored 300 in a day, with 100 in each session...how's that for strike rate? If Tendulkar had an average at least in the low 80s (on covered pitches and flat tracks) then there'd be some room for discussion. Just take the compliment that Don called Tendulkar the best he'd seen. Don't mess with Australia's only deity, you guys have plenty of them.
@DeathByRickenbacker AHAHA are you SERIOUS????

Watch the Aus vs NZ test in Bellerive oval and you get an idea what pitches were like back when Bradman was batting.
