The best batsman since Bradman
It’s been debated ever since he retired in 1948, but who is the best batsman since Don Bradman last played?
Names like Viv Richards, Sachin Tendulkar, Barry Richards, Graham Gooch and Greg Chappell get thrown around, based on records, performances and character, with 200-Test run machine Tendulkar the popular choice as Bradman’s heir.
But after his 36th Test ton and ascension to fourth on the most Test centuries list, Kumar Sangakkara’s name must join the debate.
The Sri Lankan now averages 58.53 through 123 Tests, and among those to have played 25 Tests or more, is bettered by only Bradman, England pair Herbert Sutcliffe and Ken Barrington and West Indian Everton Weekes.
