from the sub-continent. He plays in all conditions. Tendulkar, Ganguly have mostly played in flat tracks only and never contributed when the team was badly in need of their help. Go Sanga Go

You cannot compare Sanga with Tendulkar. Tendulkar is legend.
FYI, Tendulkar has played more than 50% Test Matches on foreign soil (106 out of 200). He has played 106 Test Matches on foreign soil, scored 8705 runs (Out of 15,921 runs) with Avg of 54.74, and 29 centuries (Out of 51). 56.86 % of his centuries have come on foreign soil. 54.67% of his runs have come on foreign soil.
Sanga has played only 40.76 % Test Matches on foreign soil (53 out of 130).He has played 53 Test Macthes on forign soil, scored 4,888 runs (Out of 12,203 runs) with Avg of 53.13, and 14 centuries (Out of 38). 36.84 % of his centuries have come on foreign soil. 40.05% of his runs have come on foreign soil.
See the difference and now tell me who is flat track bully, one who has 54.86% of his centuries & 54.67% of runs on foreign soil Or one who has only 36.84% of his centuries & 40.05% of runs on foreign soil
Add to that in Test Matches that Tendular played on foreign soil, India have Won or Drawn 64 Test Matches out of 106 Test. 60.37% India have Won Or Drawn. In those 64 matches he has 5,633 runs at Avg of 73.15 & 21 centuries.
In Test Matches that Sanga played on foreign soil, Srilanka have Won or Drawn 28 Test Matches out of 53 Test. 52.83% Srilanka have Won Or Drawn. In those 28 matches he has 3,009 runs at Avg of 68.38 & 9 centuries.
Who is contributing more to team wins or draws? One who has 60.37% Win/Draw ration or one who has 52.83% ratio?

And i cannot even compare the respect which Tendulkar commands, not just in cricket world but through out the world.
