player like sir bradman

which youngster do u think have a abilityto be a player like sir bradman in near future

Exactely, the closest is probably Sachin, he is still no where near.

Certainly, he played 54 tests at an average of approximately 100 and played a few hundred tests with an average of 95, pure brilliance and a one off no one will better him for a long time if ever.

certainly, remember alos he played on uncovered wickets, so basically multiply his average by 1 and a half and that is equivalent to what it is worth on conditions these days.

NO one in my opinion

i know that no one can be compared to sir bradman but i simply wanted your thoughts regarding the best youngster in modern day cricket these days thats it nothing more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I highly doubt that Martyn would've gotten an average even close to Bradman's. I don't think anyone will ever get an average near bradmans.

theres a time when a legends are replaced you cant go on forvever saying bradmans the greates cricketer ever if brett lee bowled his super quick delivery to bradman i think bradman would struggle bowlers back then bowled a lot different to the bowlers now

Bradman is just to good on a flight of stairs of how good the batsmen is it would be sachin second to top then 100 stairs up its bradman to good for anyone else.

if he was playing today than he might have developed more ability to play fast blowers like lee,akhtar. so he is always going to be best

Rubbish!! Harold Larwood was seriously quick and hit practically every Aussie batsmen on the 1932 Bodyline Tour! Voce was quick too!

   Pitches weren't anywhere near the standard of today and they remained uncovered in all weathers.

It's silly to compare cricketers of different eras , but don't patronise the quicks of yesteryear - they were nasty fellows , just like todays guys!

Fact is , with the nice pitches and all that armour I'd say today's batsmen are bloody soft - in the old days it was a cap , thin gloves , a brittle box and a ton of courage.

I don't get it. Why does it matter if the pitch is covered or uncovered.

if bradman was playing in this time of cricket i think hes average would be 30 i take nothing away from his an amazing batsmen back in his time if you have to say whos the best ever batsmen probably a recent batsmen like allan border,sunil,gavaskar,brian lara,sachin tendaulker i dont know what was so great about steve waugh

Yea, that's true. Bradman is the best batsman of all times.

I don't think there'll be a batsman like him even in a million years.
