On form I would have to say The King; Brian lara.On his day he could make the best bowling attack look like they were bowling underarm with a ball the size of a basket ball.375 then 400 in test matches&501 in county cricket.You have to be special to keep that level of concentration up for that amount of time.Class.

Without even thinking, Sachin Tendulkar is the first name that comes to mind He is an absolute legend!
Fair enough, he may not be performing well recently, and people are talking about his retirement, but over the past 17 years, he has bought cricket alive with his records. Watching him play is so entertaining, it makes me proud to support India.
He started playing when he was only 16, and was compared to Don Bradman...that is a huge achievement in itself. He has the most ODI and test centuries, also the most ODI runs. If you spend some time and look at his statistics, they are enough to amaze you.

Of all times, the one that everyone remembers, does not matter if they like cricket or not is
W. G. Grace
However the best Cricketer ever must by Bradman, Now that guy could play. What he would be like in the Modern game is hard to say.

shane warne anyone who in the modern age of physio's and things can still be fat and lazy and get that number of wickets must be damn fine but while he is the greatest not sure he is the most entertaining. Be interesting to see if some of the older legends would be as good in the modern game.

Gary Sobers and Vivian Richards!!!
Tendulkar is certainly NOT the best!!!
He is only good at resting on past laurels

Sir Don Bradman his average 99.94 is way ahead of anyone elses, he's also one of the greatest sportspeople of all time, I'd have him up there with Muhammed Ali and Pele.
