text: pontin,sachin,lara whoz goin to be best?&why? many of u may say ponting due to his current form,but i want ur opinion when all of them would finish their roles in internat. cricket(iam sure sachin will bounce back hardly,lara is gettin it back await for contest btn lara,sachin in ind-wi test series)) apart from records and statistics.. i'd rate ponting the best. the burden of captaincy never affected ponting. he batting well all bowlers. fielding well..mind you he has done 42 straight hit run outs. he stood a role model to his boys. the person who shines repeatedly is the best. so, ponting.
