No Comparison

Tendulkar first opened in his 82nd match and at that time he has no hundreds in ODI. Let's see how virat will handle the slump. Playing good and doing it consistently are two different things. He has class and temprament to surpass sachin but look at the period of sachin's career. It was awesome.

I agree, SRT though acknowledged as one of the most dominant batsman at that young age, he started scoring 100s in OIs after his 70th ODI.. and highest number of centeries scored in ODIs then was hardly 7..

Times were different, approach was different. The format itself was quite new to many.. but now its decades old. Comparison is not required, both are Indians and we are proud of them.

It's not only records but elegance is what set sachin apart. Way he execute his shot is unforgettable. Still to find a player who played better cover and straight drives. I don't like watching highlights but I can't miss highlights of sachin's innings. You can see his single shot 100 times from different angles. Any given day I can't find a better player than sachin just for his class and elegance.

Sachin for purists
by Mike Teflon on Mar 31, 2016 06:14 PM

This comparison is usually made for page views and to enhance readership. Yep, it's crazy and both have contrasting styles..

However, Sachin's strokes are exhilarating and are pure magic. He's the one for the purists.

It may not be proper to compare tendulkar with Kohli as they have started playing in different era. But Kohli is the best in terms of handling pressure and finishing matches. He looks determined and composed whereas tendulkar looked as if he was carrying the world burden on his shoulders.

Each of them have different batting techniques. Do not compare but appreciate that India is producing such fine batsman regularly.

Yes. Kohli can bat only in fast paced, flat pitches. Even Rohit sharma.

In today's advertisement-sponsored world, Kohli is the real hero.

Indian fools are rhyming his name like they once did to yuvraj. Shame on you people. It's not a one man's game.

Sachin vs Virat
by Arijit Guha on Mar 31, 2016 10:10 AM  | Hide replies

Is it fair to compare Sachin with Virat? Those who compare some hard facts for them.

1. When Tendulkar played, from his early days, boundaries were at 70-85 m distance. In Adelaide the long boundary used to be 105 m. Kohli plays in an era where the boundaries are at distance of 55 to 70 m, maximum 75 m but that too rarely.

2. Tendulkar in his career batted against bowlers like, Wasim, Waqar, Shoaib, Donald, Shaun Pollock, Klusener, Curtley Ambrose, Courtney Walsh, Patterson, Glenn McGrath, Jason Gillespie, Dale Styn, Muralitharan, Shane Warne, etc. all in their prime form. Look at the players whom Kohli is facing and where they stand compared to the legends mentioned above.

3. Tendulkar used to play in hard bouncy green wickets of Durban, Brisbane, Perth and Wellington. Whereas, with India calling the shots at ICC post Srinivasan, these pitches will never be made anywhere in the world when India is playing.

4. Finally the bats with which Tendulkar played (for that matter all batsman of his era and earlier) are no match for the bats with which present generation players, play.
So comparing to players of different era is utter foolishness.

Sachin Never deserved Bharat Ratna - they gave him that award to win 2014 Lok sabha elections.

If Sachin don't deserve Bharat Ratna than Bharat Ratna should not be here. Actually it's the award which is honored to be with sachin.
