Lara: It’s difficult… Without thinking too much, they would be Sachin, Viv, Allan Border, Sourav and Ricky Ponting.

Lara like every one else on the planet is entitled to his opinion and his Top 5 picks.

The Rev's Top 5 Batsmen of all time would be:

1. Don Bradman(1928-1948)

2. Gary Sobers(1954-1974)

3. Viv Richards(1974-1990)

4. Brian Lara and Sachin Tendulkar(1990-2013)

5. Rohan Kanhai and Shiv Chanderpaul---tied for 5th


There you have it---the Rev picks----that's a total of 7 batsmen---they said top 5---but who cares---it's the Rev's Top 5---and Rev doesn't give a rat's a$$ about what others think---so that's Rev's Top 5.

How about the rest of you folks ?

Rev

There are incidents where he was given out and he refuse to walk and kept on batting

any sources to read of that?

Soca:

Who told you Bradman was my #1 ?

The Rev's #1 of all time is Rohan Babulall Kanhai----and his test average was only 47.63----stats had nothing to do with my pick of Kanhai as my #1.

In case you missed it---the Rev chose the first 4 picks based on their dominance in the respective era they played in----Bradman was picked first because he played between 1928-1948.

Never try to trap the Rev with NUMBERS or try to match WITS with the Rev.   ;)

I told you the Rev never gets into arguments. ;D  He just posts the truth---his truths--- and leave it at that. ;)

AM I WRONG NOW AND THEN ?

Absolutely!!!


But the Rev never feels compelled to be right all the time and is never afraid to be wrong---and that's why the Rev never gets into arguments---and it's also why the Rev is always a supremely confident man.   ;D


And by the way, confident men admire strong women. ;D

The Rev challenges himself every day of his life---my goal is always to be a better man today than I was yesterday---so I constantly challenge myself.

Anyway, feel free to challenge the Rev---if your challenges add to my thinking or my learning or my education---my thanks and gratitude to you. ;D

Soca:

You said the Rev did not challenge your facts.

Lemme help you out. ;D

You are confusing "Fact" with "Opinion".

You see soca, there is a difference between fact and opinion----what you stated was not a fact---it was an opinion.

Read and learn soca: ;D

The difference between a FACT and an OPINION is, an OPINION is what you Soca think. A FACT is what the Rev thinks.   ;D  ;)  ;D


BOTTOM LINE:

The Rev didn't feel your opinion was worth challenging---Rev is comfortable with his FACT.  ;D hahahaha

No top 5 can be  completed without including Ron Headly. He was in all respects equal to Bradman
