Dominic Cork says Kohli can be better than Tendulkar

Former England fast bowler, Dominic Cork believes that Indian cricketer Virat Kohli has the potential to be as successful as batting legend Sachin Tendulkar. On Tuesday after watching the 27-year-old Royal Challengers Bangalore captain set a new record for the most runs in an Indian Premier League (IPL) season, Cork said "It's a big statement to say someone could be as successful as Tendulkar but at the moment Kohli is making every bowler look easy to play against, Who knows? In 10 years' time we could be standing here and saying he is better than Sachin."

Kohli has also won the Man of the Tournament award in the World Twenty20 tournament and has notched 7,212 runs and 25 tons in his 171 ODI games and 2,994 runs and 11 centuries in 41 Tests till date. On the other hand, Kohli's idol Tendulkar has scored 18,426 runs and 49 hundreds in his 463 One-Day-Internationals and 15,921 runs with 51 centuries in 200 Test matches.
