Sachin Tendulkar and Virat Kohli easily rank among the top-five batters that the country has ever seen. Sachin, who retired in 2013 with a plethora of unimaginable records to his name, might even rank among the top few batters of all-time. While Kohli continues to grow in stature, the Indian skipper is way ahead of his contemporaries. He’s well and truly on his way to achieving greatness that can be recognized worldwide.

When Sachin claimed 1000 Test runs against Australia, it included five centuries and two fifties. Similar was the case for Virat when he went past the glorious landmark during India’s tour to Australia in 2014.
