Mumbai: The debate on who is the best cricketer in the world is always going viral. Sachin and Kohli cannot be avoided in this. Both are the players who have accumulated the most centuries in international cricket. Sachin has scored 100 centuries in this. Kohli has scored 74 centuries.
Kohli is expected to equal Sachin’s tally of 49 centuries in ODI cricket soon. It is said that he is likely to break Sachin’s 100 percent record.
In this case, who is the best player between Sachin and Kohli? A private news agency raised the question to Kapil Dev, the former captain of the Indian cricket team. He has given his answer.
“The best players in every era keep proving their mettle. Cricket is a team sport. So one cannot pick one or two as the best player. It may contain my own likes and dislikes.
Sunil Gavaskar excelled in our time. Then came Dravid, Sachin and Sehwag. Currently there are Rohit and Kohli. The best players from the next generation are also going to be identified,” he said.
