why do left hand batsmen look better ???

Whatever it takes!!!
I don't know why you are saying Sachin is left handed. As far as cricket is concerned, he is right handed. He bowls, throws, and bats right handed. Maybe Lara would have been a better example, he bowls and throws right handed but is a left handed batsman.

Hussain is an epitome of elegance if you ask me.
His off-side driving and pulling cannot be bettered IMO.
I will agree with Hussains driving ability, and to a slightly lesser extent his pull. However to say that those shots he plays cannot be bettered is an insult to a Kallis/Sachin/Lara drive or a Ponting pull.

I don't enjoy watching these lot any more.
I do, however, enjoy watching them equally.
I'd certainly add Atapattu, for one, to the drive list.

I have to agree with Attapatu. I like watching him bat almost as much as ol Marto.

Atapattu's cover drive is a shot of immense beauty. It's one of my favourite shots to watch. :)

But IMO Kallis plays it every bit as attractively.
Hussain plays it in a different way to those two, but I'd still take any one of them with equal relish.

Yea I know , but he writes left handed ( Sachin I mean ) .He confuses me a lot .

Youve seen Lara bowl ? ( I havent ! )

Rumour has it he bowls right-arm "wristspin", but from all reports he bowls far more rollies.
