Who is the best batsmen in test cricket?

[vampiria]

Without any doubts Brian Lara.Test matches require long innings from a batsman and Lara has many records in the tests which makes him the nest.

Yes Lara has many records but consistency in the game is another thing. ..and i think Ricky Ponting is best when it comes to consistency,.

I agree with you that consistency is important too but if it comes to consistency then we cant take back the credits from Rahul Dravid and Sachin Tendulkar.

Yes, Rahul Dravid is good ..always consistent But sachin was not as consistent as rahul and Lara.
Though Lara has more capacity to make his team win.

Tendulkar started his test career with a bang but now a days his form is not with him.Maybe because he is getting old and dont have such good health like before.

Yes, he started with a bang. How much old is Tendulkar ?? 34-35 ??
Well , When Inzamam-Ul haq was 38, he was still hitting centuries....Now compare the fitness level... I agree , fitness is the main problem with our Indian cricketers.

Sachin's luck is not with him at the moment thats why he missed many opportunities for making a test century.He continuously 5 times went to 90's but could not reach the milestone mark.

it should be Sir Don Bradman....

That's not at all about luck. It's about will power and control.
That was his sheer nervousness.
