First double century in one day international now added to his cricketing records.

Pontificating
Always a hard one but you could be right.
4 tons in his last 4 tests as well, all that at 36 ! the little prince certainly is a living legend, and I dont use that word lightly.

The problem is the majority of his major achievements have been on flat as a pancake home pitches. I'm not doubting he is a top batsman but India's pitches are ridiculous for batting on and he bats on them more than anyone else being his home grounds. I've always thought of him up there with the best but too much is being made of his double hundred in that game, it couldn't have been a more lifeless pitch.

has to be the best cricketer of all time, i remember seeing him play at Headingley scoring 183.
no flat pitch and plenty of movement due to conditions. his range of shots and timing is beyond belief.

I don't dispute that but I don't think it is clear cut he is the best ever. I think he is way better than Lara however as much as it pains me to say it as I can't stand him, I think Ponting is one of the most dangerous and difficult batsmen to play against, certainly for England.
My top 5 are:
D.Bradman (never seen any footage but history/stats dictates he has to be there)
V.Richards
B.Lara
S.Tendulkar
R.Ponting
What order those 5 should be in is the big debate and I don't know how it can be decided one way or another, it boils down to opinion more than anything.
