Tendulkar – www.publictrustofindia.com https://publictrustofindia.com Odisha English News Fri, 21 Jul 2023 12:36:56 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 West Indies legend rates Kohli 2nd behind Tendulkar among India’s greatest batters https://publictrustofindia.com/2023/07/21/west-indies-legend-rates-kohli-2nd-behind-tendulkar-among-indias-greatest-batters/ Fri, 21 Jul 2023 12:36:56 +0000 https://publictrustofindia.com/?p=2435 Bhubaneswar: West Indies legend and former great speedster Courtney Walsh rated star batsman Virat Kohli second after legendary batter Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar among the greatest Indian cricketers.

Walsh also stated that both Tendulkar and Kohli are within top five batters in the world. Walsh’s statement came after the former India skipper displayed another magical innings in his landmark 500th international game and in the ongoing second Test match against hosts West Indies.

“Well, as an Indian great, I would rate Kohli just behind Sachin. Sachin is one of the greatest I have seen and played against,” said Walsh during an interview.

When asked about his opinion about top cricketers globally, Walsh said, “I will put Brian Lara and Viv Richards up from a West Indian point of view. Ricky Ponting and Steve Waugh from Australia – two gentleman I played when I was a youngster, Graham Gooch from England and Javed Miandad from Pakistan.”

“But the value they put on their wickets reminded me of Virat Kohli as well. He doesn’t want to get out. So I will definitely have him in my top four, top five greatest cricketers I have seen,” the former speedster added.
