VVS against Australia..any year....any time..any venue..is just awesome. I can't compare his innings against Australia  ..be it in 2007, 2004 or that epic 281 in 2001 in Calcutta..with anyone..including my all time fav. Lara. Against others he's never been as good but against Aussies..with Mcgrath, Gillespie, Brett Lee and Warne all at their peak..he was terrific..more than terrific.

Joshit, what do u think of Brian Lara's very high backlift..coming down the track to spinners as if it was a cake walk to hit them over the head for 6, and Anwar lifting anything on the pads on the on side for 6 with such an ease. Azhar..who could pick the ball even outside off stump and place it on the on side at will. Mark Waugh who epitomised the grace I loved the way he batted, so lazily elegant.
