Sachin is the greatest batsman to grace the game. Don bradman didn't play under the pressure that sachin plays. The expectations are pretty huge from him.

You do not have your facts straight. It is one thing to be a Sachin chamcha and another thing to know the truth. Don Bradman was the greatest batsman of all times, whether you like it or not. He played under great pressure too and in those days, they never had protective gear like what they have now. So talk about pressure; you know nothing about it.

Additionally Don Bradman played during the time when 'bodyline' bowling was enacted by the British players namely Harold Larwood. This kind of bowling was considered intimidating and physically dangerous to the batsman. Many batsmen were indeed hurt by this technique. So that was real pressure. Because of that Cricket Law number 41.5 and 42.6 were instituted to protect the batsmen. I hope you now have your facts straight. But because you are the typical Indian, I doubt you will have your facts straight.

That's the problem with typical sachin fans.. They don't know that Players in those era never had protective gears & also the fact was matches were played on uncovered pitches. Sachin would have averaged around mid 30's in such situations.

Absolutely valid point -- we won 20-20 world cup coz sachin was absent . and whenever he represented India in World Cup - India haven't won the Title
