Sachin's record cannot be broken by any one the following:
1. Brian Lara because he is not in is greatest form and he is like 38 years old.
2. Andrew Strauss is good, talented player but the fact is that he plays good for some time and then he could lose form after that. But I want to say that he has a good talent, not that he cannot break record but he still has to score many more runs, and centuries.
3. Matthew Hayden cannot break the record at all because he is an old fellow and he definately cannot break it.
4. Poor Ricky Pointing might have the best chance of all but I still say he won't be able to do it. I say this because every betsmen will go through tough time. Look what happened to Sachin and the same will happen to poor Ricky.
