Forget Tendya, he records and his years of cricket are waste now. Sangakkara and Kallis are the the greatest and they holds highest test average compared to Tendya and will eclipse Tendya.

Hail!1 next bradmans Sangakkara,Kallis. Also, he playing a match saving innings of 277 against Pak recently is an indication of his greatness compared to Tendya who just cannot deliver such innings when needed

By M sahas - Apropos your last statement that Sachin Tendulkar cannot deliver such innings when needed - the statistics tell a different tale, you should read them first before making baseless comments.
Just to quote a few :
1. His 1st test century * 119* vs England in Manchester Test (1990):
made with India fighting to save the Test on the final day. Composed and poised, it was the 16-year-old’s first brush with superstardom as India came away with an honourable draw.
2.103* vs England in Chennai Test (2008-09): The perfect answer to critics that said he hadn’t won enough Tests for India. A beautifully crafted century on a fifth-day track as India mounted their highest successful chase on home soil. The ton was, poignantly, dedicated to Mumbai.
3.155* vs Australia in Chennai Test (1997-98): Outfoxed by Shane Warne for four in the first innings, Tendulkar came out a man on a mission in the second, overturned a potentially decisive 70-run deficit and set up a stirring victory.
4. 57 vs Pakistan in Sialkot Test (1989-90): Struck on the face by a Waqar delivery, Tendulkar waved away the physio, hit the next ball for four and went on to make 57. A match-saving innings in Sidhu’s company, a display of mind over matter.
These few innings should be enough evidence of the class of the master batsman.
