Virat Kohli and Sachin Tendulkar are the 2 best batsmen Indian cricket has ever seen. Both have conquered runs in their careers. Virat Kohli is in the race to join Sachin Tendulkar, who is the greatest player in world cricket. Virat Kohli scored his 47th ODI century in the Asia Cup match against Pakistan.
Virat Kohli can surpass Sachin Tendulkar’s record of 49 ODI centuries if he can score just 3 more centuries in ODI cricket. Virat Kohli can also become the first player to score 50 centuries in ODI cricket. Sachin Tendulkar and Virat Kohli are irreplaceable cricketers for these reasons. Now former Indian player Sanjay Manjrekar has come forward pointing out some similarities between the two.
Sanjay Manjrekar talks about the insatiable desire of both the players towards cricket. “The biggest similarity between Sachin Tendulkar and Virat Kohli is that both enjoy playing cricket immensely. Both players always want to stay on the field. Virat Kohli was not part of the squad for the Asia Cup match against Bangladesh. But even then he had to stay on the field. I don’t think Virat Kohli needs the power of being the captain,” said Manjrekar.
“Virat always wants to play. He thoroughly enjoys being part of the team. Virat Kohli played as India’s captain for a long time. Therefore, Virat does not have any unsatisfied dreams now. Staying with the team, traveling with the players, lining up on the field and being part of the winning moments are the most important things for Virat Kohli in his career,” added Manjrekar.
Manjrekar says that Virat Kohli will not be able to surpass Sachin’s record of 51 Test centuries even if he is in bed with Sachin Tendulkar. “Currently, Kohli has scored 29 centuries in Test matches. Sachin Tendulkar has scored 51 centuries in Test matches.
That is 17 centuries more than Sunil Gavaskar. Scoring runs in ODI cricket is relatively easy for a good player. Because bowlers don’t always try to get wickets. Sachin and Kohli are very special. Because both of them have many Test centuries to their names. However, I think Virat Kohli will find it difficult to surpass Sachin Tendulkar’s record of 51 Test centuries,” says Manjrekar.
