Juswt wait for all grandpas to retire... India will look like the current Australian side in Ashes... India will not win anything aftermath and Dhoni will go to Dhobhi Ghat...
Both are the gem of Indian cricket. But comparing them for achievement is not really fair. If you talk about potential Sachin will definitely score higher than Lax. But again, if you talk about character that needs at crunch situation Laxman is way beyond any other Indian players and he is a proven character. This character that u see, is very rare in every walk of life, be it job, business, sport or any other field. Even I guess his (Laxman) expertise is very rare in World Cricket at present.

If you are talking about patience on Test Cricket, I am agree with you that Laxman is marginally better than Sachin. But as a complete batsman Sachin is much much ahead.
After droping Kallis there is no value for hoping victory. CATCHES WIN MATCHES. Let the batsmens of team India, apart from Tendulkar & Drvid, must go for bouncer training at Australia's cricket accademy.
i think sehwag will cause more damage than Bhajji or Tendulkar or Sreesanth or Ishanth put together!! India should open with Sehwag at one end!! and may be Zaheer/Bhajji from the other end!
.15 am: the weather is at the moment is simply ... epic. It's not cloudy now. Rather bright in fact. The rain drenched Kingsmead last evening shortly after stumps and went away, thankfully.
9.00 am: The heavy rain that lashed Durban last evening has cleared and the weather is sunny on the fourth morning of this wonderful Test match. South Africa need 192 runs to win the series, India need seven wickets to level it at 1-1. There's some bad weather forecast for later but this Test will be decided today.
