Virat Kohli or Steve Smith? This question has been doing the rounds ever since both the batsmen graced the field of play. Fans and experts all across the globe have had their views on the debate but these two just seem to outperform each other day in and day out. Now, the ‘God of Cricket’, Sachin Tendulkar has had his say on the ever-going debate.

If we look at consistency and cross-format batting, Virat Kohli clearly comes out on top. He has been the best batsman across all formats now and has been extremely consistent with the bat. On top of that, he has the responsibility of leading India in all the three formats of the game. This goes on to show how Virat’s batting has improved with the added responsibility on his shoulders.

Sachin Tendulkar Reveals His Choice

Master blaster Sachin Tendulkar has come up with an interesting response on the Kohli-Smith debate. Sachin, who is presently in Australia for the Bushfire Cricket Bash, said, “Let’s not get into comparisons and let us enjoy what both those individuals are doing. They are entertaining the entire cricketing world and it’s a joy for us to watch.”

The star batsman added, “I don’t like getting into comparisons. People have tried comparing me to a number of guys and I’ve said, ‘Just leave us alone’.” Sachin seems to have finally given a great response to the ongoing debate. He is extremely justified to have mentioned that legends should not be compared to each other.

Both, Virat and Smith have had amazing international careers. They have been at the top of the cricket world for a long time now and both of them seem to get better with time. Smith’s career has been stained by the ball-tampering controversy but the Australian star has had his share of punishment and is back on the field of play smashing records. Virat, on the other hand, has been Mr.Consistent in world cricket and is the perfect modern-day cricketer.
