Lara has big scores vs big teams carring the west Indese on his back. I always felt he should not have been captain then there would not been any wondering who's better. A man carring a load vs a man man with free hands then to me Tendulkar's record should have been greater. Tendulkar was captain, did he not fail? what he did give it up.
