Virat Kohli’ consistency since 2015 not only made him the best batsman of current generation but also have led to many touting him as a successor of sorts to Sachin Tendulkar.
But, Kohli had said in a TV interview that he felt embarrassed with such comparisons. “It is unfair and Sachin can’t be compared with anyone,” said the Indian captain, “Comparisons are not valid from my end I have looked up to him but want to be myself and definitely draw inspiration from him. He is two levels above any player. Sachin was born with talent and I had to work for it.”
Though, many in the cricket world believes that Kohli is more than capable of breaking Sachin Tendulkar’s most of the records.
