Can kohli break sachin's record?

in #cricket5 years ago

Hi all,

Two greatest batsman of their own time, Sachin and Kohli. Both being my favorite.

Records are made to be broken. Sachin broke Gavasker's record and now kohli is all set to surpass sachin.

So now let's analysis the record that has already been broken :

Quickest to 11000 run :

There are total 9 players have scored more than 11000 runs as below.

Sachin Tendulkar (India) 18,426
Kumar Sangakkara (Sri Lanka) 14,234
Ricky Ponting (Australia) 13,704
Sanath Jayasuriya (Sri Lanka) 13,430
Mahela Jayawardene (Sri Lanka) 12,650
Inzamam-ul-Haq (Pakistan) 11,739
Jacques Kallis (South Africa) 11,579
Sourav Ganguly (India) 11,363
Virat Kohli (India) 11,520*

So record was with sachin as he has scored this in 276 innings.

Kohli broke that record and scored in 222 inings.

Average in ODI :

Tendulkar scored 18426 runs in his ODI career at an average of 44.83.

While Kohli has an astonishing average of 60.3 in 239 ODIs .

Quickest to 20000 runs in international cricket :

Kohli scored 20,000-international runs from 416 innings (131 in Tests, 223 in ODIs and 62 in T20Is).

While Tendulkar and Lara, both had reached the milestone in 453 innings, followed by Ricky Ponting who scored 20,000 runs in 468 innings.

Which records may kohli break soon :

MOST CENTURIES IN ODI - Yes kohli can break ( He has already 43, Sachin has 49)

MOST HALF CENTURIES IN ODI - Not easy to break (He has 54, Sachin has 96 ... conversion rate of 50 to 100 is much better for kohli compared to sachin)

MOST ODI PLAYED - No kohli can't break it . Kohli has played 239 ODI, Sachin has 463 . Kohli is 30, even if can play for next 8 years, considering 25 ODI a year his stats can't cross 463.

MOST CENTURIES IN TEST : Kohli can't break (He has 25, sachin has 51 . Now a days India is playing lesser test compared to the era of sachin. Also in test kohli is not more impressive when compared to sachin)

MOST TEST PLAYED : Sachin played 200 and its nearly impossible for anyone to break.

If anyone can again break kohli's record then he is babar azam.

Considering his age (24 years) and quality, then it may happen too.
