Inzamaam no doubt was the best Pakistan ever produced besides Saeed Anwar, Zaheer Abbas and Javed Miandaad. But Yusuf Youhana (Mohammad Yousuf since 2005), has a lot to prove. Yes, he hit a purple patch in the year 2007 when he surpassed Viv's record of highest aggregate runs in a calender year. Let me give you a whole bunch of great batsmen of last 50 years, who obviously don't rank along Sachin, Lara, and Viv..but nevertheless are/were far better than Yousuf Youhana (aka Mohammad Yousuf).

Aravinda DeSilva, Zaheer Abbas, Javed Miandaad, Saeed Anwar, Azharuddin, Sunil Gavaskar, Gundappa Viswanath, Martin Crowe, Stephen Fleming, Carl Hooper, Desmond Haynes, Gordon Greenidge, Shiv Chanderpaul, Clive Lloyd, Rahul Dravid, Graham Gooch, Mark Waugh, Steve Waugh, Damien Martin, Allan Border, Matt Hayden, Andy Flower, Greg Chappel, Ian Chappel, Dug Walters, Rohan Kanhai, Alwin kalicharan....and so on....

All these players were one of the best in their times. But when it comes to picking the best ever, even the great Don Bradman chose Tendulkar...besides Shane Warne.

Mind you, I am no Tendulkar fan. I waz always an Azhar and Lara fan. I have short of stopped following cricket since Lara retired. But one has to be very objective and respectful to the legends of the game who are widely acknowledged and admired by even their opponents.
