It depends on what do you mean by (or, want from) a 'cricketer': A batsman, a bawler or an allrounder! It also depends on whether you consider tests better than ODIs or vice-verse.\n\nAccording to the latest LG-ICC ranking,\nThe best batsman is: \n Tests: R Ponting (AUS)\n ODIs: MS Dhoni (IND)\nThe best bawler is: \n Tests: Muttiah Muralitharan (SL)\n ODIs: S Pollock (SA)\nThe best allrounder is: \n Tests: J Kallis (SA)\n ODIs: S Pollock (SA)\n\nSo, decide yourself now who is the best!!!

In one-day cricket it's Mohammad Azharuddin. In test cricket, it's jointly held by.... Azharuddin (again!) and Kapil Dev.  \n\nODI: 62 balls Azharuddin (vs New Zealand) \nTest: 74 balls Azharuddin (vs South Africa). 74 balls Kapil Dev (vs Sri Lanka) \n\nInteresting facts about Azhar's century: During Azhar's fastest test century, Indians were sturggling to avoid follow-on when Azhar smashed swashbuckling 109(from 77 balls), well supported by Anil Kumble who made 88. They added 161 runs for the 8th wicket (Indian record) and saved the follow-on. Azhar also smashed 5 consecutive 4s of Lance Klusener's over. Klusener, however, came back with 8 wickets in the second innings.

KAPIL IS THE BEST.\nHADLEE WAS THE CLSSIC BOWLER.HE CANT BE ADDED IN THE LIST.\nBOTHAM WAS GOOD ALL-ROUNDER.\nBUT HE NEVER MADE A HIGHEST RECORD.\nIMRAN ALSO GOOD..ALSO NEVER MADE A RECORD.\nKAPIL IS THE LEADING WICKET TAKER OF ALL GIVEN IN THE LIST.\nAND HE IS THE LEADING RUN GETTER OF THE LOT.\nSO THE LEADER IS THE BEST.

I think Anil Kumble is second only to Murali.I even consider him to be better than the Great Kapil Dev in the bowling department.With Due respect to the other four in the list,there is no contest.

By way of flair & fireworks : Brian Lara\nas for having the best technique and consistency: Sachin Tendulkar     And this is something that counts!!\n\nI know many will disagree with me on the sachin point but look at that man's career records & the immense pressure from 1 billion cricket crazy country men, the way he carries himself on the field; his dignity.\n    One would say that dignity has nothing to do with performance but Tendulkar, had the world at his feet for 15 long years & now his body is showing the signs  wear & tear due to 15 years of non stop cricket. He has maintained his dignity in a country that makes it's heroes only to topple them. And in this world Tendulkar has stood tall- Be it with his dignity or his 35 test centuries or 40 something ODI centuries or his 25k international runs or ANYTHING.\n                   He is by far the best batsman in world cricket now. If there's any need for proof of his greatness - recall India vs Pakistan at the World Cup'03!!!!!!

RAVI SHASTRY.\n\nHE TOOK 60 BALLS TO HIT HIS FIRST 6 RUNS.\n\nATLAST, INDIA LOST TO AUSSIES FOR RUNNING OUT OF BALLS.\n\n{MANJREKAR HITS THE FASTEST 50 OF THE MATCH.}

NO DOUBT ITS RAHUL DRAVID.HE CAN PLAY IN ALL CIRCUMSTANSES.IN TEST OR IN ODI HE PERFORMS ALWAYS BEST V/S ALL CONTRY.WE HAVE HEARD OF GOING OUT OF FORM OF PLAYERS,BUT HAVE NEVER HEARD THAT HE IS OUT OF FORM.WHETHER HE WAS A KEEPER OR HE IS A CAPTAIN HE PLAYS HIS OWN GAME WITH NOT AFFECTED BY THIS.

No.He will not be the best one ever cuz many players are approaching his records.In my opinion Don Bradman and Clive Lloyds are the best

Mark Boucher n Gilchrist r the best keepers undoubtedly ... but when it comes to allrounder keeper  then .. Gilchrist is far superior.. n then Dhoni  also joins the list!

Kapil Dev was chosen as the Wisden Indian Cricketer of the Century by an eminent jury of 35 cricketers, journalists and thinkers in a televised ceremony at Wembley Stadium. \n\nSachin Tendulkar won the People's Choice Award, which was selected on the basis of a popular poll. \n\nI go with the people it is always the master blaster "Sachin Tendulkar".
