Ohh boyyy

 

1.When do openers finish ? When kohli is set ( 1 down pretty much same ) he takes the game till end and finishes it off.. he doesn't leave it for others or make sure he plays for his 100 no matter what the situation is.. He is a complete team guy.

 

2. Coming of new gen kids showed Indian fans how selfless they were and how to put team wins infront of personal milestones... proof of that can be seen in yesterdays match from virat

 

3.Sachin's peak is no where near kohli.. you got to be kidding me. Get me a year and compare to 2016 kohli had.. he would embarrasssssss him

 

4. Look at amount of games we won when he scores 100s and most of the time he single handedly did it. Even sachin has sehwag and dravid infact rohit and dhawan are less consistent.

 

5. Kohli smashed malinga like he was nothing in 2012 in AUS . we all know how sachin played malinga and proof of that can be seen in 2011 wc final.. same with ajmal ended up being his bunny. Virat has god knows how many 100s in AUS he owned last test series and he ll end up having his name in adilade ground. Sachin's name will be no where expect mumbai and rightly so.. Mumbai lobby

 

6. Even if kohli fails today or tomo he will always be remembered as a legend and a guy who played for India rather than personal milestones he has 50+ averages in all 3 formats please don't embarrass by comparing to a phony.  As a player Kohli is beyond everything 

 

About time that selfish record of 100 whatever will be gone and totally broken by the true legend of India Virat Kohli and completely erase those bad days of Ind cricket.

 

Jai hind:rock:

Kohli needs to have a monster ODI world cup and take India to the final to comprehensively settle this debate. He has under-performed in knock-outs against non-minnows in ICC tournaments: Tendulkar averages 48 and Kohli 34 and Tendulkar has played more than double the innings. Kohli's average in WC knockouts is even lower (17). While Tendulkar failed in two WC finals, he made 50+ scores in the 1996 SF, 2003 SF, 2011 QF and 2011 SF, basically performing in 4/7 WC knockout games. Kohli, while sample size is smaller, has failed in all 4 knock-out games. 

 

In the 1996 world cup (against non-minnows), Tendulkar scored more runs than the other top 3 run-getters from India PUT TOGETHER (Azhar, Manjrekar and Sidhu). In 2003, he top scored in 7 out of 11 games and of course, was the highest run getter. In 2011, a 38 year old Tendulkar scored more runs than Gambhir, Yuvraj etc at a higher SR than all (including Dhoni) except Sehwag. And FYI, he scored the second most runs (after Gambhir) for India in the knock-outs put together. No bonafide choker will have these numbers, that's for sure. 

Very true. Kohli is on his way to greatness for sure but he surely needs to add few big knocks in the worldcup knockouts.

 

I am pretty sure he will have a lot of them by the time he retires but then that is why this comparison needs to stop right there as he hasn't scored half the runs which Tendulkar has as he hasn't played even half the games Tendulkar has played.

 

Also even if Kohli goes on to achieve bigger things than Tendulkar, eras can't be compared and Tendulkar must hold a special mention every time the greats of the games are named. 

 

We are one lucky generation to witness both of these champions pretty from the start of their career till the retire or will retire.

Rohit is averaging close to 50 since 2012, Dhawan in mid 40s. How are they less consistent than Dravid and Sehwag who both had lesser averages.

Sehwag can change the game in 1 or two overs and can break opponets will to fight back .. 

umar guul was padosis best bowler in 2011 wc , but two overs of phainta , he lost his plot and allowed india tht eluxury of playing safe till 30th over :dance:

that 2 overs did not change the game at all. We could barely reach 260 huffing and puffing that too with the help of Raina. We were clearly struggling to reach even 250 at one stage. We were 6 down for 205 in 41 overs. Had Sehwag stayed longer even if he had scored at 100 SR instead of 150, we would have scored more.

withiut those 2 overs , we will be struggling even more .. it gave the luxury of playing safe for another 10-15 overs for the struggling batsmen
