Its always fair to comment on a player you have actually watched or a player who played during your lifetime.
I never saw Hammond, Bradman or Sobers play so its pointless me commenting on them.

Im a huge fan of Kallis,Lara, Ponting and Sachin as I can relate to them and have followed their careers. Its pretty silly that these guys who SET the benchmark in recent years are being called to be dropped the moment they slip below the line.

Cant compare people from as different eras as Hammond and Kallis.

But Kallis has a better average than both Tendulkar and Zaheer Khan in their respective fields which says all that needs saying in my view.

I certainly won't be putting money on him getting another pair any time soon.  I also doubt that he'll go down the Ponting road either.  He just has something about him - I guess 'dependable' is the word! I wouldn't be surprised if South Africa slip a place or two down the rankings after he retires...
