Sachin was never able to play like Kohli did in first inning

Sachin was more consistent. He had a much longer prime. But peak vs peak kphli is better. Does anyone get me? 

Kohli had a couple of years peak at max at test level 2016-18.  He was just another good batsman in all other time in his career nothing special.  Nor he had the quality & range of strokes SRT had.

At his best he was better but overall Sachin is superior. Peak vs peak kohli imo was the better player. Too bad his peak was short lived. 

 

A similar analogy would be peak Shane bond. Peak vs peak, imo he was better than even steyn. However his peak was short lived. His career was riddled with injuries.

Sachin was like Federer. Kohli being say Nadal for instance. 

 

Sachin was the maestro. Peak vs peak, Nadal is the better player. However Federer had a longer prime. 

 

In saying that Nadal is probably greater than Federer now that he has won 20 slams.

Yes Sachin would have scored 300 runs with blind fold  and one hand against this pedestrian attack (best in nz history) in damp,overcast condition .could you elaborate me what was the performance of Sachin in our famous SENA victories during 2000-2011 period ,i can count some of his failures .in our famous Adelaide victory he was utter failure , in our famous Perth victory he failed ,in Johannesburg 2006 victory he failed ,tell me his supper cluch performance in any SENA victory where he was highest scorer.I can give you some of Ftb Kohli performance ,Johannesburg victory he was highest scorer,in Trent bridge scored 200 runs in a match,in Melbourne 2018 match he was second highest scorer 82 runs after Pujara .

Adelaide 2003 - 1, 37

Joburg  2006- 44, 14

Perth 2008 - 71, 13

 

Scores similar to 44 are termed as failures for Sachin and indeed he should have contributed more, but for Kohli fans a 44 is an achievement! Nothing more to say

 

BTW, when you get time, do watch 111 at Joburg '93, 122 at Birmingham '96, 113 at Wellington '98 and 116 at MCG in '99.

Bhai ,where did I say 44 is an achievement,I just pointing out those who mocked him like  if there were Sachin who would have scored 1000 runs in this severe condition against  arguably NZ’s best pace attack in their history.he was indeed playing well and very astute about his off stump ,it was his bad luck that match was interrupted again and again and he lost his concentration ,facing 132 balls is a good effort.

Peak vs peak, Djokovic trumps them all. With a positive h2h against both Nadal and Federer, the 19-slam-winning Djokovic -- with a career Slam done twice along with at least two of each Masters --  also happens to be by far the most dominant player of the last decade. In fact, he's the most dominant player of all time with the most weeks spent at no.1 than anybody else (including Federer whom he beat recently here).

Adelaide test- 1, 37

j’burg- 44, 44( only Indian batsman who cross 40 in both innings)

leeds2002- 193( highest score for india)

Perth- 71, 13 ( 2nd highest score in first innings)

hamilton 2009- 160 highest score for india 

Sa 2011- flop in both innings 

 

Its not a bad record.

Nope, at his peak SRT played maybe half the number of tests Brat did? And even less at home, do you remember how many tests Kohli played in India 2016 & 2017 :cantstop:

Kohli is a limited batsman who is basically a front foot player. when compared to Sachin Tendulkar who was good on front and backfoot.

Somehow averages more than him in all formats. Your footwork is over rated lol 

 

Players like steve smith ll never become what they are if it's all about that!

And? LO avg, mainly ODI, has also balloned by around 10-15 for top batsmen of this era, you think SRT wouldn't avg at least 50 as an opener today :cantstop:

 

T20 is hard to predict just based on avg, but peak SRT>>>>peak Kohli, Sharma, KLR or anyone you can think of :bow:
