But When The Time Came, they even tried to bully umpires as we saw Ponting's dismissal in the match against Pakistan, thick edge but umpire turned it down and then Ricky Ponting stayed at the crease and pretended as he didn't nick it but when Pakistanis referred it to third umpire, there was a clear evidence of outside edge off the bat and so the 3rd umpire gave a fair enough decision and ruled Ponting out.

Cricinfo On Ponting' Dismissal:
Mohammad Hafeez to Ponting, OUT, gone! Akmal has held a very good catch and Ponting has to go! Things really bubbling over here. Ponting went back to cut a ball which wasn't really there for it, got a thick edge that Akmal did well to hold. It was given not out originally, but rightly was overturned on review. While waiting for the third umpire to confirm the edge there was some verbal exchanges though between Haddin and the Pakistan fielders and plenty of chat as Ponting was sent on his way

In the QF Match Against India, Umpires as usual were reluctant to give LBW decisions as a result Ponting went on to make a hundred that was also a expected result of his umpire's domination when India had no review left but wondering why such plumb shout were turned down even when Australians had two reviews left and India had none, dodgy umpiring added a few 10-15 more runs to Australian Total so they got 260+ which wasn't an easily achievable total and now Indians need a team effort and every had to contribute but umpires tried there best as we saw how shockingly Sachin was given out off a backfoot no-ball in a crunching situation of the game where he was looking solid after scoring a fifty but surprisingly it probably the first time i saw on-field umpire referring to third umpire for no-ball checking and usually if umpires had a doubt he should have given it as a no-ball because as they say, Batsman gets the benifit of doubt but that was a big back-foot no-ball, just wondering do these racist umpires even these know the rules of cricket but India still easily kicked the sorry butts of the World Cheaters and shown them their way. 

This is What Cricinfo Says About Sachin's Dismissal:

Tait to Tendulkar, OUT, Sachin is gone, or is he, is that a back foot no-ball, it was a length ball outside off stump, and he nibbled it on its way to Haddin, it was very close to being a no-ball, but Tait got away with it, he hadn't grounded the back heel on the line, Sachin has to walk back

Obviously, Sachin Tendulkar is the Greatest Cricketer of All Time according to the facts with Validated Points and Genuine Reasons after a hard lot of Research and Facts, clearly proving that Sachin Tendulkar is a class part and miles ahead of Don Bradman -


1. Most of Professionals Can hit more than 6 sixes in one game (Yuvraj Did It Against against Stuart Broad of England in T20 World Cup 2007) where as it took Bradman a 20 years long career to do so.
It show he wasn't quite capable of hitting the big ones outta the park and was not even close be called an entertainer whereas Sachin has hitten 6 Sixes to Complete his hundred in Six Tests.

2. Bradman played 52 international matches in his 20 years long International career (avg. of 2.3 matches per year) so it was easy to maintain such high average whereas Sachin has packed schedule of over 21 years by playing in 30 matches per year with the passion for doing something phenomenal to make India proud and that's what actually he had done so far in his 630+ International Career Matches including 453 ODIs and 177 Tests.

3. Test Cricket was the only form of cricket existed during the era of Don Bradman but also the only suited format for him as per his Strike Rate of 29.7 shows it all and whereas Sachin Tendulkar adjusted Himself for every format such as T20 (as we saw in IPL 2010), ODIs,Test Cricket and has a much better strike and of around 55+ in Tests, 86+ in ODIs and has a nice average of 38+ in Twenty20 (IPL) but he decided to retire too early from International T20s so it does not affect his natural game but he still cops well within every format of the game.

4. Don Bradman played in the Semi-Professional Era of cricket while there were no such good bowlers as Kumble, Warne, Mcgrath, Brett Lee, Lilllee, Wasim Akram, Malcolm Marshall and Murali (who is unarguably the greatest bowler of all time) whereas Sachin not only faced quality bowlers but also dominated them all through out the 20 years of his career.

5.Bradman scored most of his runs (75%) against the ordinary bowling attack of England and he got used to it there was no real pace, the ball used at that time was not too hard as we have these days and there was no swing (let alone reverse swing), flipper, doosra, teesra, googly, slower, carrom ball, slider bouncer or even perfect yorker was not even known.

6. There was no technology to analyze the weakness of a batsman during the Bradman's era but in today's cricket there is technology to analyze weaknesses under slow-motion, batting style etc.

7. Sachin would even have may came close to the average of even 75+ in Test Cricket and even 65+ in ODIs if he wasn't a victim of such dubious umpiring in his whole career and then he would have easily have made 125 centuries and the landmark of 40K Runs.

8. Dead Pitches are actually easy to bat on ,wonder watching the Bradman's Video with deliveries not even bouncing till the Waist height at such slow speed with no grace and so Bradman has ample of time to play the stroke at those so called uncovered pitches.
Clearly He Wouldn't Had Play Little More Bouncing Balls (than usual of his time) that Well.

9. Cricket Legends and Expertise too have Accepted Sachin Tendulkar is the Greatest Batsman of All Time Without a Doubt.

Sachin The Best of All Time, According to Brian Lara -->

--> Best Quotes on Sachin Tendulkar by one of the most Phenomenal Cricketers & Experts:

#1. "Sachin is a genius, I'm a mere mortal."
- Brian Lara

#2. "I have Seen God, He Bat's at No.4 for India in Tests."
       - Matthew Hayden

#3. "We did not lose to a team called India...we lost to a man called Sachin."
       - Mark Taylor said during the test in Chennai (1997)

#4. "I am fortunate that I've to bowl at him only in the nets!"
       - Anil Kumble


10. As For Bradman, Without Helmet and Modern Equipments such as helmet and It was much easier to play your stroke for that Batsman so Sachin beats him having such unique but heavy modern protection gears where it is not a comfort zone.
As BCC Stated, "Beneath the helmet, under that unruly curly hair, inside the cranium, there is something we don't know, something beyond scientific measure."

"It's very frustrating indeed. The Sydney Test would be remembered forever in the history of cricket, When as many as 11 decisions were made favourable to Australia. These calls were not even close. They were obviously wrong. God knows what must be going on in the umpires' minds at that time.It is even more disappointing when players claim wickets that
they themselves know aren't wickets at all."



List of some umpiring controversies:

Australian 1st Innings

• Ricky Ponting (17) given not out by Mark Benson - Ponting attempted a leg glance off his pads while facing the medium pacers of Sourav Ganguly. He edged it back to wicketkeeper Mahendra Singh Dhoni. The appeal was turned down by the umpire. Ponting went on to score 55 runs.
• Andrew Symonds (30) given not out by Steve Bucknor - Symonds attempted a push outside off to the bowling of Ishant Sharma, but managed to edge the ball to the wicketkeeper Dhoni. The Indian appeal for caught behind was turned down by Bucknor. Symonds went on to score 162*.
• Andrew Symonds (48) given not out by third umpire Bruce Oxenford - Symonds lifted his back foot while beaten by Anil Kumble, Dhoni appealed for a stumping which was referred to the third umpire. While analysing the video replays, Channel Nine commentators Mark Taylor, Michael Slater and Ian Healy speculated that it was out. The 3rd umpire turned down the appeal, commentators at Cricinfo saying "in by a whisker, make that half a whisker". Symonds went on to score 162*.
• Andrew Symonds (148) given not out by Steve Bucknor - Symonds attempted to slide his back-foot into the crease when beaten by Harbhajan Singh, Dhoni appealed for a stumping but Bucknor did not pass the request to the third umpire, adjudging Symonds not out. Cricinfo commentators said "he just appeared to have some part of his foot grounded behind the line". Symonds went on to score 162*.

• Wasim Jaffer (3) given out by Mark Benson - Jaffer bowled by a yorker from Brett Lee. Replays show that Lee's front foot was outside the crease which would make it a no ball.

• Michael Hussey (22) given not out by Mark Benson - Hussey is struck on the inside of the right pad deep in the crease off a ball that turned and kept low off the bowling of Anil Kumble. Hussey went on to score 145*.
• Michael Hussey (45) given not out by Mark Benson - Hussey turns the full face of the bat to the leg side and gets a fine touch to wicket-keeper Dhoni off the bowling of Rudra Pratap Singh. Hussey went on to score 145*.
  
  
• Andrew Symonds (0) given not out by Steve Bucknor - Symonds was struck on the front pad by a top-spinner from Kumble on his hat trick ball. Bucknor adjudged it not out. Kumble missed out on a hat trick. Symonds went on to score 61.

• Rahul Dravid (38) given out by Steve Bucknor - Dravid tucked bat and glove behind his pads as he successfully padded away a delivery from Andrew Symonds. Adam Gilchrist caught the ball and appealed for caught behind and Bucknor gave it out. Replays revealed a small deflection of the pads going almost straight into Gilchrist's hands.
• Sourav Ganguly (51) given out by Mark Benson - Whilst the TV evidence was inconclusive as to the correctness of the decision, the manner in which it was delivered has generated controversy. Sourav Ganguly edged the ball to Michael Clarke at slip who was engulfed by his team-mates in celebration of an apparent catch. Umpire Benson appeared unsure as to whether it carried and instead of referring to third umpire asked captain Ricky Ponting for clarification. There was a prior agreement between the teams that the fielders would be honest about whether the catch had carried. Ponting, having already consulted Clarke about the validity of the catch, raised his finger, telling the umpire that he thought the catch was cleanly taken. He came under criticism for claiming the catch on behalf of his fielder while he was himself not sure about it. He had earlier appealed for another dubious catch off M.S. Dhoni, when TV replays suggested the ball had touched the ground while he was diving. TV replays were inconclusive about whether ball touched the ground for Ganguly catch as well, in which case the batsman normally gets the benefit of the doubt.
