In terms of sheer talent , No one comes close to AB himself . Sweeping fast bowlers bowling 90mph+ , reverse sweeps off fast bowlers , reverse pulls off fast bowlers , switch hits.
@@robinsmith3149 what successful?? He never did it for his Country. When he was in his prime he retired just before the world cup. He is just a choker and coward.
@@kedarnayak6826 yes you are correct... Otherwise he would have said Sachin... No worries he'll grow and will ultimately come to conclusion that Sachin GOAT
@@amolsingh7511 Sachin is run machine,he wasn't a big hitter player,run machine and ab devilliers was something very different,he can hit any bowl in any direction of the ground,the kind of shots he played no one else can play. That's why no point of comparison both of their role was different and also batting style
I feel Sachin made us believe that we as Indians can be the best in the world in any walk of life. Certain personality traits of him like humility, calmness, honesty towards the game suited Indian values and that's the reason why he was widely accepted by Indians. Generally success, talent and money brings arrogance but it was exactly the opposite with Sachin.
Because the generation that watched both Sachin & Virat is not much active on social media and have got settled in life... While the new generation has only seen Virat or last drawdown period of sachin, so they don't know how much sachin mattered to entire nation in 90's... All they see is stats only which doesn't make sense cause everything favoured to batsman now.
@@balasumanth2526 If according to you stats is everything 😂 Then looking at Kohli's form now he can't break Sachin's record of Centuries and Runs He have 4-5 years to play and Player's game drops after the age of 32 I am also a VK fan but bro stats is not everything Even though Kohli can't break Sachin's record but that doesn't means he is not a good batsman and also He is the fastest to score 12000 runs in Odi but that also doesn't means he is better than Sachin
@@balasumanth2526 when you don't have knowledge of mathematics and statistics, you compare stats linearly. Stats are to be compared exponentially, not linearly. And so Sachin is way ahead of any current generation cricketer. Only Jaques Kalis comes any close
It's always sachin, for a decade he was taking the pressure of Indian batting, today virat has batsmen if that caliber, who can single handedly win the match even without virat, but sachin had to individually bear the pressure.
Events and achievements at just an age of 30 for virat :: 1)KHEL RATNA (Highest award in india in field of sports) 2)PADMA shri 3)Fastest in world cricket to 10,000 runs in odi 4)DEFINITION OF INTEGRITY and COMMITMENT - Lost father at age of 16 at 2am, but went to play in the morning , saved match from losing, scored 90 runs and then attended the funeral of his father the same evening 5) Total 64 Centuries till date(2nd highest in the history of indian cricket and 3rd highest in world cricket ) with 19000+ runs in international cricket for india 6)Staggering averages in all formats== around 54 in tests, around 60 in odi, around 50 in t20 7) No.1 batsman in Tests and odis and TEAM is No.1 in Tests 8)Two new frontiers conquered by india under virat's captaincy::: a)Winning a Test series in Australia first time ever In 71 years b)Winning an Odi series IN SOUTH AFRICA for first time (virat led from front, scoring 558 runs in 6 odi with 3 centuries) 9)Won Under-19 world cup in 2008 as CAPTAIN and 2011 world cup as a player 10)LOVE STORY LIKE NO OTHER== After being in a relationship for 4 years, then finally getting married to the love of his life, he is a source of inspiration for millions of youth how to love and respect your better half... 11)Doing so much through VIRAT KOHLI FOUNDATION by funding training for next generation young atheletes; is supporting a massive animal rescue center in Bangalore ; has donated personally huge amounts for kerala flood victims ; has donated 50% of his ipl match fees in 2016 to old care center in pune.. And the fact is we can only learn from him and grow in our lives...Any sensible person would be a great fan of his... He doesnt owe us a damn...Its our honor and privilege to be alive when he is playing and living... And any person with a criminal, prejudiced and ignorant mindset only can dare to even think negative of him, reflecting the failure of his /her parents, education and existence itself
baap tera Every word you wrote here is absolutely true. He came close to winning the test series in South Africa had it not been a session of wickets for India, Pujara got run out when both him and Virat were drilling the South African pacers. England series was also a close one though the 4-1 result may not provide the true picture. Half an hour of play with the New Zealand in the World Cup cost the world title for him. New Zealand series other the t20 was a disaster. Rohit was quick to mention that he got injured and left midway. No doubting in his injury but I feel that he has a big ego against Virat. Rarely he talks high about Virat when asked and when virat is asked about him talks very high of him. Just to give you an Aussie example David Warner has absolutely no grudges against Smith in spite of him being one of the explosive batsmen in their line up. You are right though. After Sachin I interest towards cricket had generally dropped but with Virat in the scene around the interest have definitely come back. I would really want him to win a test series in England and South Africa and so looking forward to the test series if corona provides against the mighty Aussies.
Who is the best smith or kohli Ab:kohli Who is best virat or sachin? Ab:sachin is good,but in chasing in under prusre,virat is better than anyone...♥️❤️
in sachin era sachin is a opener and scored runs and give good start to the team but no one finishes the game in virat kohli's era rohit sharma or other opener gives the start to the team and kohli and dhoni/other players finished the game very well so dont compare sachin tendulkar with virat in any situation now a days there are shorter boundaries also which made huge difference in shot selection and when sachin playing for country other team has much better bowlers than todays bowler and techniques also and pitches sachin is living legend virat has 6-8 year remaining then i wiil compare him with sachin tendulkar
Only thing I hate about devilliers : he retired when he was close to 10,000 Odi runs and 9000 test runs in his career. Had he stayed for 2 more years, he would have set some records to his name by now.
Virat Test - 8/10 Odi - 9.5/10 T20-9/10 Smith Test - 9.5/10 Odi - 7/10 T20 - 5/10 Sachin Test - 9/10 Odi -9/10 I love all three of these players , but my favourite is Steve Smith but it's totally correct that Sachin is number one . Kohli is number 2 . Smith is number 3 but the best in test cricket.
You well say bro but in odi virat 10/10 and T20 10/10 don't compare in this both format. And I agree in the test smith little bit better then virat kohli not huge margin
There is no one who comes close to virat in this generation....Virat is a godlevel player in all three formats and whereas when we see other players u can always see they struggle somewhere in atleast 1 format and that's why who is the best player in the world the ans is virat and that's the end of discussion. P.S-If any one has doubts pls feel free to comment so i can u give u loads of facts and proofs so that it get settled in ur mind.✌
@@rohan2362 if u had ever watched him playing him in 90's, then u wouldn't have said "kuch bhi". He was much more aggressive than Rohit, Virat, KL etc; tennis elbow injury ruined his gameplay...

@@cricketcrackle776 while comparing virat with Sachin......please consider difference in pitches.....bowling line ups.......field restrictions.....also Sachin was an opener.......so he had to face the toughest of deliveries......so please consider these before comparing virat to Sachin!
I'm watchig cricket since 1998 regularly, without droping a single match. A fan of cricket. All I can say, SACHIN : The 2nd best batsman in Test cricket after 'Don Bradman'. And the best in ODI. He's hands down the best batsman ever, due to his big sample scale, with wide variations of pitches, against countries/legends he played, cricket rules, under pressure of billion expectations, and many more. Sachin is emotion. Any All time best ever XI of test & ODI team is incomplete without Sachin. VIRAT : Modern Day Great in all three format of the game. Great chaser & overall cricket impact he brought in team. Took inspiration from Sachin & may be learned few skill from him on live TV, during sharing dressing room, or off the field later. 2nd Best ODI batsmen ever after Sachin. T20 right up there at top with others great like - ABD, Gayle, Babar, Warner , etc. In Test he've to do lil bit more. By this date, he'll het feature in All time best ODI team & best T20 team. SMITH : Legend in making for red ball Test cricket. The best Test player in modern day cricket, & lil bit better than Virat. Non-orthodox style. In white ball cricket, he's good player, but he've to do a lot before even we can dare to compare him with Virat. He's not even in comparison there. Till date, He wont be feature in any format of, All time best team.
He is not legend in making. He is a legend in test cricket. See the records although I am not a big fan of the records. Better captain than Virat and a role model. Smith doesn't lack anything in his game.
@@deepakshaw29 Sorry mate, with due respect, I disagree. Fact says, Virat : 55 test as captain with 33 win & 12 loss. Total 60% win ratio. Virat is India's best test captain ever with a series win in Australia. Fact says, Only SteveWaugh & Ponting has better win ratio than Virat. He's role model & carries expectation pressure of billion ppl. From Viv richards, Javed Miadad, Inzamam, Ganguly, Md. Yousuf, Vaughan, ABD to Ian Chappell all finds him overall ahead of Smith. Forget India, England or Africa, even Pakistan has more Virat fan than Babar Azam😄 Steve Smith : 34 test as captain with 18 win & 10 loss. Total 52.94% win ratio. Also in Smith leadership lot of unethical controversies around, like- BrainFade moments in DRS, Sandgate, etc. I disagree that any youngster sud follow him as role model as u mentioned, bcoz apart from his cheating abilities, his unorthodox style of batting also don't suit most. No one can copy Smith nor it looks good as proper cricketing shot. PS : Smith holds little edge in Test matches than Virat, but even his records in test wont give him place in All Time Best Test XI. Bcoz it packed by Bradman, Sachin, Lara, Kallis, Viv Richards, Ponting, Gilchrist, Sangakara, etc. To be in that league Smith need more time, more impactful & match winning innings, thats why I said Smith is 'Legends in making'.
@steve smith you didn’t watch Ab de villiers test matches. Ab de villiers test average is close to Virat Kohli's present average. And ab de villiers strike rate is like 54 or near 54. On the other hand Ab de villiers strike rate in odi is over 100. That's called greatness where strike rate in test is way lower than odi. Virat Kohli could never beat ab de villiers in odi ranking till few months ago of his retirement. Ab de villiers was also number 1 in test for many days. May be year. Okay.
ABD himself is the best batsman .I hope most of the cricket fans doesn't eagerly wait any of the three batsman's mentioned above except fans but if ABD is on the crease no one refuses to watch
Virat is Federer of cricket..Now shut up all! That's the answers. And Sachin is role model for both of us ( Virat and AB) .. Now it's per se an answer.
Viv is the greatest odi batsmen of all time , Bradman is the greatest test bastmen of all time (though most of us didn't watch him) & Sachin is the most complete batsmen of all time. Let smith and Kohli play 160 test matches , then compare them to some of the greatest players of all time.
Just say that *Smith is better than Virat in Test Cricket* And *Never compare Sachin with anyone in this modern generation* bcoz Gods are in different league
Sachin is best because he face many though bowlers than virat. Sachin faced, warn, murlidharan, Akram, akhatar, and many best bowlers of era And virat face just Anderson, Steyn Boult and other
@@balasumanth2526 Just look at the average of kohli after 100 test matches and look at the average of sachin after 100 tests. You will get your answer.... nowhere near.
Oh come on AB!! ,Virat played in an era where world class bowlers were less.sachin played in an era where. Every team had one world class bowler at the least.Not to mention the batting depth of our team back then.
Nope you are wrong don't say it by names show me stats...i have stats..average of top 10 bowlers in sachin era is 23.4 average of top 10 bowlers in virat era 21.7
@@cricketcrackle776 Just tell me the names of 10 world class bowlers of virat's generation.i will give you 10 from Sachin's generation. Also u might be interested to know that while chasing in knockout games of worldcups 2019 2015 ,2017 champions trophy 2014, he could not chase.Please understand that Sachin played in an era where bowling was still hostile,and he scored, not for himself but for the team,even scored with injury.
Well I love abd,but again comparing vk or abd with Tendulkar will be a joke,only 90's kids know the flair of Sachin....being honest batting has become very easy since 2010..... nothing for the bowlers....
For me no one is in the league of Sachin and Lara since the start of the 90s ,,,,, There are a whole lot of players who are in the league next to them ........
FORGET ALL COMPARISONS HERE/........ JUST APPRECIATE THE AB DEVILLIARS ... THE WAY HE MANAGED TO ANSWER TO THESE WORLD BEST QUESTIONS IN CRICKET IS JUST AMAZING 😃😃😃😃😃🙏🙏🙏✌✌✌✌👌👌👌👌
Yeah u r partially correct in someways . But bro. Messi & ronaldo they have been in this battle for 8-10 yrs now where as in virat & smith case virat is all format best player just behind smith in test where as smith is only competing him in test format & virat is bigger match winner then smith over the years . Where as smith has only done on few occasions..
If AB could have play safe cricket like other batters he could have runs till now 12k approx in ODI he play all shots even risky shots in difficult situations most of the time he got himself out.
For me I think the best batsman is Abd Why? Because he is the man who can play in all places on the ground. The cricket has been created for playing throughout in a ground not just for hitting cover drives pull shot etc. You need to be consistent and need to play in all places of the ground. This is why I think Abd is the best player ever.
Virat or Smith? Smith in test matches Virat in limited overs. Virat or Sachin? Virat in limited overs Sachin in Test matches The answer is that simple.
@Music Is Everything Bro BTW I am fan of virat but I think you have not seen a match of sachin before tennis eblow and backpain and even Sir don bradman also said that whenever sachin used to play he remember his own cricket carrier
@Music Is Everything There is main difference between stitches and tennis elbow problem in tennis elbow a person cant lift a weight and in stitches we can lift the weight
@Music Is Everything There is main difference between calling a great batsman and having same honour with great batsman and Curtly Ambrose a great bowler said that Sachin has more compact than virat and brett lee also said that virat is better than smith amd kane but sachin is greater than them
Kohli is 2 times man of tournament better than both you have mentioned and t20 has most pressure his 82* vs aus is prime example then 72* vs sa is again prime tuff opponents tuff pitch still win you with over to spare abd is legend he has seen more then both of us so shut the fuck up..
@b ap What happens to Smith?? LOL. Wt20 2016- NOTHING CT 2017- NOTHING WC 2019- NOTHING other than one 86 in SF which was never going to be match winning anyway. Just 1 100 in a SF in 2015 and he is GR8. He is nowhere near Kohli in White Ball Cricket. And even if he is no. 1 in tests, Virat will be no. 2. Virat will walk into any Test, ODI or T20 team of the current generation unless the selector is a biased hater like you.
I love virat and I always says that he is best. And AB also thinks that virat is best but in fact AB himself is better than anyone at any situation. There is no words to describe him , he is extra special and extra ordinary that's why he is called alien or superman and each and everyone love him .I think he is the only cricketer having no haters
Believe that in pressure condition virat could chase any total but when uh talk about pressure sachin had more pressure then any cricketer in the world. Pressure of expectation while he was in crease. Pressure of performance when he was at his mature age.
Bro why are you even comparing them to Sachin. Even if someone Break his records it doesn't mean you are better than him. The cricket was different back then compared to now. Sachin is the perfect cricketer . He is so humble. There's a reason why he is called god of cricket.
If You Ask Me Who Is Your Favourite Indian Cricketer I Would Definately Say Virat Kohli But If You Ask Me Who Is Your Favourite Cricketer Then I Would Say AB DE VILLIERS.
Pretty sure he’s not seen 2015 (WC Semifinal) or 2017 (CT Final) or 2019 (WC semifinal) all 3 times virat failed. And all 3 times smith got the team out from a difficult situation. That’s one aspect Smith is better than Kohli. Pretty sure foreign batting records too against SENA countries are better for smith.
What difficult situations one Good icc event for smith , where as kohli perfomed more better smith in icc Knockout innings , man of the tournament in 2 T20 WCS ... 2013 Ct final 43 ,2011 final 35 ...

I think we can't do any comparison between both of because sachin is the best player of that time and virat is the best player of present and like both of them very much
We all knw he picks virat but in my pov Smith is way better in test cricket nd virat is way better in odi cricket nd we don't want compare them both nd don't even compare Sachin with current generation players he is legend 🤗
Assume had AB picked smith ahead of virat. We Indians must have gone berserk khata yahan gata wahan ka. AABD - Anti national ABD. "Courtesy Indian media", would have been headline for a week how our brains are getting washed these days.
@@mad-makeadifference275 he isnt gonna make more than hundred centuries thats for sure and 18k runs, no chance. Let him make his 71st century first😂. And as you said, its all about records.
Stop comparing Sachin with others particularly from this era there is no comparison and the reason is simple he had scored runs in most difficult era where every team have legendary bowlers and pitches were difficult I have serious doubt in Virat kholi ability as a batsmen he is never tested because there is no good bowler and all pitches in world are now batting friendly . Now in every match you see 350 plus score which can be chased easily Now standard of cricket has gone down drastically .It has become so easy to chase 350 plus I don't think kholi can chase targets if he was playing in Sachin era because it's not easy to score against legendary bowlers and difficult pitches I will rate AB 100 times better than Kholi You can't compare AB with Virat because Ab has more ability and Skills he can play in any Era
Main difference b/w sachin and virat in sachins time bowlers were brutal and had speed of light he face goats of all time bowlers and virat comparatively has an easy bowling line up to face to yeah Sachin was a beast
I don't want to complicate the things But virat is better than Sachin when team is in under pressure like chasing Or playing sena nations His record at abroad was phenomenal.... He is the chase master.... Smith is the no 1 test player in the world.... Nobody even closer to him in longer format... He is the real gem of test cricket And ABD Himself is the master of doing unbelievable things Like clean hitter of the ball.... He hit for maximum so simple that nobody can do... If I have to choose best among the 4 Then he will be ABD........
