As per the value of each runs scored, i think sehwag's runs is much important than sachin's because of his strike rate and the runs he gets at the top of the order, demoralizing the opponents and giving confidence to the Team.

I think Bradman was the classic batsman as he did it in that ancient days.
Sir Donald Bradman Ranks Number 1 slot !

there are nine slots empty after that....

Tenth slot is Sachin Tendulkar Ranked at Number 2 !

Since he is that far from Bradman !
