10 cricketers and their cricketing idols

2. Virat Kohli – Sachin Tendulkar

Its high time that the ICC should ban Virat Kohli for making the professional sport look like a child’s play. Such has been his consistency that even the net bowling machines are looking for cover. Keeping the jokes aside, it can be said that with this pace he is going to break every possible batting record. Right now, he is the only international batsman whose batting average is above 50 in all the formats.

The Indian captain has already achieved some remarkable feats and he is just 30 years old. Nowadays he is leading the country to great heights with his leadership skills. It is amazing to see his undying passion for the game which has brought him closer to his role-model, Sachin Tendulkar. The God of cricket doesn’t need any introduction as his batting records speak for himself.

In a career spanning over 25 years, the Little Master became the giant of world cricket. Many times he has single-handedly won games for the country and now Kohli is emulating him. He is always looking to improve his game which is similar to Tendulkar’s hunger for success. In difficult situations, he has sought the help of his hero. Especially after his disastrous 2014 England tour Sachin’s words of wisdom did wonders and since then he has turned into a run-machine.
