Dravid and Tendulkar voted #BestTestPair

@ESPNcricinfo #BestTestPair has to be Mahela & Sanga, the number of times they have won games for Sri Lanka together is just remarkable.

@ESPNcricinfo The wall makes bowlers to think to try at other end. And when they do it master shows him perfection. RD and SRT #BestTestPair

.@ESPNcricinfo Hobbs-Sutcliffe averaged *thirty* runs more than the other 4 pairs. #BestTestPair #Bradmanesque

Close call on #BestTestPair- the way Hayden-Langer dominated attacks for the worlds #1 side makes them my pick. #BestLefty pair for sure!

Without a doubt its Sanga&Mahala #BestTestPair it's almost like a perfect love story

#BestTestPair Rahul Dravid & VVS Laxman. For giving 2 most iconic, interesting & intriguing Test Matches in history of the game. Period.

Desmond used paper cuts to finish the job. Gordon, a blunt axe. Equally effective. Deadly together. #BestTestPair

#BestTestPair Hayden and Langer. Smothering fast bowlers and spinners, Intimidating, Controlled Aggression blended with Sound Technique.

@ESPNcricinfo Greenidge and Haynes easily. #BestTestPair . The greatest opening pair backed up the greatest bowling attack ever

@ESPNcricinfo Tough to pick. But for sheer enjoyment in each other's successes & impact on SL, @KumarSanga2 & @MahelaJay #BestTestPair

#BestTestPair Sachin Tendulkar & Rahul Dravid - pure joy to watch two modern greats batting together ...all my childhood

— Sachin Saraf (@sachin434) August 14, 2015

@ESPNcricinfo Heart says MJ & Sanga but stats show without a doubt #BestTestPair is Hobbs & Sutcliffe

— Eranda Wijewickrama (@erandawije) August 14, 2015

Rahul and Sachin, without any doubt. The WALL and the LITTLE MASTER - two of test cricket's premier batsmen. They have scored centuries all around the world, and managed the Indian batting with our notorious record of having poor openers in the 90s and 00s. No one else comes close
- Triple_A

Justin Langer and Mathew Hayden they just gave a new dimension to open an innings in test cricket, scoring at 4 to 5 runs an over in test cricket at there time was something unbelievable

As an Indian, Sachin and Dravid are my favourites. But apart from them, I'm a fan of Sanga-Mahela combination. They are good friends, great players and the bestentertainers when batting together :)

15 century stands in 39 innings. On uncovered pitches. Hobbs and Sutcliffe by a country mile.
- GraemeSA

Rahul Dravid and Sachin Tendulkar. This pair's scoring was probably evenly distributed over the span. They have most runs, 50s and 100s in partnership which are critical in test batting. This pair has scored in home as well as abroad, and that too for a long time span. They have faced some of the fiercest bowling attacks: Donald-Pollock, Wasim-Waqar-Shoaib-Saqlain, Ambrose-Walsh, Vass-Murli, McGrath-Warne-Lee.

The numbers don't lie. Hobbs and Sutcliffe head and shoulders above. Their first class careers are unparalleled as well.

An average of 87.86 during 1920's is astonishing, no matter how many games you play maintaining that average is the unbelievable, Jack Hobbs and Herbert Sutcliffe it is. If one doesn't see that average then surely one is just voting for his/her favorite players.
- HarishVaranasi

Surely its got to be Jack Hobbs and Herbert Sutcliffe. Look at their average. They scored more centuries in so little innings. Its not that their average is more than others by some 5 or 10 runs. Its way way more. You cant be biased and just support people whom you like. Its a sport and got to appreciate others who have done well. So its Jack Hobbs and Herbert Sutcliffe.

If you've watched or followed cricket at least from 80's anyone would say without a doubt it was Greenidge & Haynes. Such a dominant pair specially in the opening has not existed in my view & major factor behind West Indies dominance in cricket for many years besides 'Viv' factor -

Despite boasting a good record i don't count Greenidge-Heynes and Hayden-Langer as they played for the best teams in their time. They had the luxury of never to face the best bowlers as they were their team mates. Sachin-Dravid and Sanga-Mahela on the other hand faced the best bowlers and were still able to succeed.

It is pretty tough to make a call when it comes to selecting a pair. A partnership not only depends on the pair but also the platform set up by the fellow batsmen. To me the pair which took their team to an extraordinary score is Sanga & Mahela. Both lead from the from when they were the skippers. Took the responsibility of the team on their own shoulders. Yeah but it is a really tough call to make when the other 4 pairs have excelled on their own cards!
