hahahahahaha...flips maicha!!!! no one is comparing people. i am comparing performances. if you want to be remembered as the greatest batsman of all time, you should be able to live up to the expectation that past legends have not been able to. all i am saying is --> sachin --- a master blaster of his era...a great batsman indeed. BUT his best time has gone. what you are seeing and will see is sachin minus his best form. if you want that sachin and wah wah his performance like you used to do during the 90's, then i have nothing to say. team need more vibrant player than someone who is going down the hill. that being said, am not trying to take anything away from him. he is a great batsman of his era and will be remembered like that forever. LooTe PS btw, comparing LooTe with einstein has high probabilty of making einstein LooTe. :P
