Why can’t Virat Kohli replace Sachin Tendulkar? This veteran gave a very big reason. Sachin Tendulkar is counted among the greatest batsmen of all time in the world of cricket. He is called a complete batsman.
Kohli Started Being Compared To Sachin
But ever since Virat Kohli has stepped in and created a stir with his bat, Kohli has started being compared to Sachin.
It is said that if anyone can break Sachin’s record of 100 international centuries, it is only Virat. But former England batsman David Lloyd believes that Virat can never replace Sachin for one reason.
Sachin’s Record Of 49 ODI Centuries Was Broken
Virat had broken a big record of Sachin Tendulkar in the ODI World Cup played in India last year. Virat had scored a century in the match played against Sri Lanka in Mumbai and broke Sachin’s record of 49 ODI centuries.
With this century, Virat became the batsman who scored the most centuries in ODIs. This record was earlier in the name of Sachin.
While talking to Talk Sport, David Lloyd was asked the question that if he could choose only one between Sachin and Virat in his playing-11, then whom would he choose? On this he took Sachin’s name. Explaining the reason for this, Lloyd said, “I have done a little research on social media.
If You Ask These Questions, 95 percent will Take Sachin’s Name:-
When you ask people this question, 95 percent will take Sachin’s name. There is only one answer to this. One thing that kept coming to the fore is that Sachin used to leave his ego at home. Whereas Virat Kohli speaks a lot.”
David said that he would choose Sachin between Sachin and Virat but if he had to choose between Sachin and the great West Indies batsman Brian Lara, he would choose Lara. He said, “Virat Kohli is fantastic but I would have chosen Sachin.
