Also, he’s now gone 50 international innings without a century.
Almost every legend of game has gone through it.
But i am sure none has as many contribution in winning as he has.
So, we can be bit light on criticism and not jump the guns.
I still remember vividly that sachin was not able to score 100th hundred.
But still whole world supported him.
Didn't ask for retirement/troll or criticize him.
They respected hiss 99th and several other contribution.
But when i see for virat, nobody has this respect and patience for him.
Just check his average post 2014-15.
This clown scores just one century in a series most of time and clings on playing 11.
This guy plays just one format of game and still has poorest form since years.
The whole mumbai lobby and press has been making him hero out zero and he is surviving because of Aus series (even though a lot of people across country know his consistency in scoring in one match in whole 4-5 match series)
The reason middle order would drag on to one more series because virat is out of form in test format, so if they are dropped people will question virat as well.
But they ignore the dynamics of kohli vs pujara/rahane.
Kohli is firstly captain, plus he never had this bad of a rough patch. He has playing three formats, he is still young and fit.
While pujara ans rahane are around 35 and it's about time to bring new sets of player for WTC cycle. Rahane looks so under confident as if he is debuting every match
This guy who has made a journey from being 11th batsman to opener.
And mind you he has some really great records to his name.
He never had the talent, he learned on the job. Transition from 11th man to open is not some rookie thing. He was a utility player who turned out to do more than one could expect him to.
Scored runs overseas as a opener.
The shashtri kohli duo has fetched us some legendary wins but only left with a ICC trophy.
If virat has his luck(which he never has) and gets ICC trophy. He'll be the best captain even surpassing even MSD.
MSD choked in test cricket so overall he should be better Captain.
Although in white ball exclusiveness MSD is better.

Will be very easy for him to score another 20-30 centuries.
Flat tracks and crap bowlers?
I mean your useless comparison can only be put to the rest by asking sahcin to come out of retirement and play again.
Because time machine is not available at the moment to send virat back to the history.
Also, if bowlers are so crap and flat pitches then why don't many present cricketer has such many hundreds?
Smith/Warner/Rohit
The fact is sachin was talented(gifted), he was meant to be for there.
Kohli worked hard to get there where he is.
Also, how many times Sachin scored a century and India won? Comparing to virat?
20 matches and 70+ in fixing?
