Re: Virat has to prove his skills in test Matches

Fortunately for Virat, the tracks in SA, Australia, NZ are no more as fast & bouncy as they were used to be during the time of SRT. It's evident from the amount of runs being scored these days on those tracks. Also, another major factor is the quality of bowling which is also on decline. Genuine quality bowlers with consistent line & length & tremendous control over swing are rare breed to find now.
Tell me honestly, in whom from today's bowlers, can you find even 1/4'th of quality, temperament, consistency & ability of the likes of MACGRATH or AKRAM or WARNE or DONALD etc.....

u hv only 2 finals to remember. Sachin average is 55 in Finals, how many batsman have average of even 45 in finals :)
Sachin and Virat are both class apart. No Doubt.But as far as the game is concerned,there can be no running away from the fact Virat has won us more matches batting under pressure and delivering the most when its needed. Sachin has done it in past ( India Vs Australia in Sharjah ) and taken us home, but when consistency is to be discussed, time and again Virat has delivered. So my call is both are good cricketers but when we have to choose a match winner , it has to be VIRAt

If virat hd played bowlers against whom sachin played, virat hd emerged as a mediocre batsman lyk other Indian batsman, virat Is lucky that he isn’t playing against WORLDCLASS BOWLERS :)
Definitely, Kohli is better than Sachin. Kohli is a master strategist who plays for the team and the situation. Sachin played for himself and record book.
As far as batting concerns sachin is better than kohali his sq. cut, upper cut, six no doubt sachin is best. but kohali can handle mental pressure better than sachin. kohali once set never throwing his wicket hence as player kohali is better than sachin dosent matter bolling strength, pitch, or batsman favarable new roles.
