Vitat 10000 vs Sachin 10000
by sudhir anjana on Oct 25, 2018 04:49 PM  | Hide replies

We must not forget that when Sachin joined Indian Cricket Team, rest of Indian batting used to collapse dramatically and individual Sachin was made to score runs for the team almost solely. Such shameless has been poor performance of the rest of Indian batsmen during early days of Sachin's arrival which no body should ignore and forget.
Virat's consistent performance has been awesome, no doubt and he has seen different positive environment from rest of team right from his early days of joining Indian camp.

fantastic sir your comments have been awesome but u forgot to mention that sachin played in an era where scoring 225 runs in australia was a mean feat whereas virat is playing in an era where 300 runs is also not safe in an odi.india was whitewashed in australia in odis despite scoring 300 plus scores.not only that sachin opened the innings after several odis whereas virat is one down from the start

sachin has definitely more shots than virat.one thing that stands out from virat is that he is defintitely the most mentally toughest cricketer that i have come across.more tougher than steve waugh no doubt about that

Sachin came down the order for his first 89 innings and did not get sufficient overs to play.
The present day bowlers are mediocre
Rest is history

This is a feeble defense of Sachin who is a mediocre player when compared to Virat Kohli. In fact Sachin opened the innings in most of the Onedayers and he had more chance than anyone else to make those runs, whereas Virat came at one down only!

Bowling attack was different
by LiveComment on Oct 25, 2018 09:20 AM  | Hide replies

Too much hype. Bowling quality Sachin, Saurav, Ricky, Kallis faced is way way superior than what now Kohli is facing. No doubt Kohli is a good player but if he faces the same bowling attack which others faced then he would not have scored so many runs.

In that case what Bradman achieved is a big zero since there was no foolproof LBW law at that time. And there was no technology usage to decide a batsman out.

Those who run down Kohli and who defend the indefensible Sachin are idolators of Sachin.

Virat sheer luck and destiny
by guru srivastava on Oct 25, 2018 08:54 AM

Previously in olden times there were less matches so the form had to be for years. Now if you are in sublime form you get continuous arches. Moreover cricket has taken a back seat in many countries and less people are playing. There is dearth of good bowlers . West Indies hardly plays calibre players. Australia will not have Smith Warner. Continuous matches at home pitches with weak opposition.
Virat is having advantage of sheer luck

Comparisons are not fair
by Dr Love on Oct 24, 2018 10:45 PM  | Hide replies

No doubt that VK at present is the batsmen and is a living legend of the game, but we cannot compare him other greats like Sachin, Gangulys and Viru Paaji.
1- The rules are not the same, its more in the favor of batsmen now.
2- 25 year old ball rule, ruled out Reverse swing and is not helping finger spinners as well.
3- Kohli don't have to face the class bowlers of high caliber, such as Ambrose, Walsh, Malcolm Marshal, McDermott, McGrath, Brett Lee, Warney, Allan Donald, Pollock, Wasim Akram, Waqar Yunus, Shoeb Akhter, Saqlain Mushtaq, Murlitharan.

As per this logic then every batsman should score. Why only Kohli is scoring. You cannot take away the credit with such comments. No doubt sachin was a great batsman but with time every name changes. after 20 year or so some new player will overdo Kohli as well. Cherish the current achievement do not live in past.

We are comparing Sachin v Kohli, not Kohli v everyone else. Why everyone not scoring only Kohli scoring is senseless question to ask as others are not as good as Kohli but the point is Kohli is not as good as Sachin, Saurav, Ricky, Kallis.
