i think there are more similarities between brian lara and a r rahman then rahman and sachin. becos sachin can b a bit predictable these days but lara like rahman is very unpredictable and alwaya delivers when it matters most like rahman. lara is the best in his country without a doubt like rahman is the best in india. tendulkar is challenged by dravid atleast in tests. lara has a certain grace while batting as if he is dancing on a rahman song. both are tireless and they love their job a lot. lara is known for playing long innings and rahman for working close to 16 hours a day.
