Virat Kohli vs Sachin Tendulkar: A statistical


comparison at the age of 29
Aadya Sharma, Sportskeeda 14 hours ago      

https://in.yahoo.com/style/14-psychological-tricks-everyone-know-150608402.html 3/14
11/5/2017 14 Psychological Tricks Everyone Should Know

"There's no question of being compared to him. Because of everything he has given us,
he doesn't deserve to be compared with anyone. At least not in the current generation."

Comparisons have been anathema for Kohli, who considers himself unworthy to be
equated to the cricketer he grew up admiring and imitating.

Yet, differ as he may, from a purely statistical angle, Kohli seems to be on the verge of
surpassing the Little Master’s all-time records, at least in the one-day format. 29 is an
age that is considered to be the peak for a batsman: Kohli has been bathing in a tub full
of form for the last two years now and is in a happy space when it comes to his batting.

Let’s snap Sachin’s career at the 29-year-old mark, and analyse, merely as inquisitive
cricket enthusiasts, where he stood as a cricketer prior to 24th April, 2002, and juxtapose
it against Kohli, the modern great, to get a whiff of what the future holds.

Sachin was playing under the firebrand captaincy of Sourav Ganguly, having established
his reputation as the undisputed champion of the sport. His brand value was searing
ahead, sustained by names like Pepsi, who had had a decade-long association with him.
In 2001, Sachin signed a five-year deal with WorldTel, quite on the lines of what Kohli
established with Puma last year.

From 1997-2002, Sachin averaged over 55 in each year

Indian cricket was going through an indifferent phase, and the team were months away
from winning the NatWest Trophy, a victory that would galvanise them for a stellar
performance in the 2003 World Cup, and set the tone for the next decade and a half.

A day before Sachin’s birthday, India completed a historic win at Port of Spain,
symbolised by the gutsy Anil Kumble, jaw broken and all. Tendulkar was the toast of the
game, scoring 119, his 29th Test century, bringing him at par with the legendary Sir
Donald Bradman.

Tests - 94

https://in.yahoo.com/style/14-psychological-tricks-everyone-know-150608402.html 4/14
11/5/2017 14 Psychological Tricks Everyone Should Know

Runs - 7869

Average - 58.72

100s - 29

50s - 31 

Highest score - 217

In comparison, Kohli’s current Test numbers are:

Tests - 60

Runs - 4658

Average - 49.55

100s - 17

50s - 14

Highest score - 235

Of course, Kohli’s Test career had a different tangent to it. Inducted into the team as a
specialist limited-overs batsman, Kohli took three years to get a place in the Test side,
whereas Sachin was a child prodigy who broke into the side as a 16-year-old, having
been a rage in the domestic scene right from his school days.

Tendulkar steadily progressed in Tests, and had a century and five 50s to his name in his
first 10 Tests itself. By his 29th Test, in 1994, his average crept above 50, and did not fall
below the mark for the next 171 matches and 19 years, except for a very brief phase in
1997. From 1997-2002, he averaged over 55 in each year.

The 29th birthday mark was the supreme peak of Sachin’s Test career: his average
touched 58.87 in February 2002, the highest in his Test timeline.

Kohli seems to have flicked a switch in the last two seasons, especially after being
handed the Test captaincy. After his horrid run in England in 2014, he made his technique
foolproof, becoming more side-on and playing from close to the body. A turning point in
his career came with the 2014-15 series Down Under.

Kohli has shifted gears ever since being handed the captaincy

https://in.yahoo.com/style/14-psychological-tricks-everyone-know-150608402.html 5/14
11/5/2017 14 Psychological Tricks Everyone Should Know
By 2016, he had figured out the Test puzzle completely, compiling huge scores as the
year progressed, developing a sound temperament that arose from the responsibility of
holding the batting together. The numbers symbolised it perfectly: last year, he racked up
1215 runs, at an average of 75.93, scoring three double centuries, and following it up
with another early this year. Tendulkar had six overall.

Kohli is well on course to obliterating all ODI records

While Kohli still has to comprehensively prove himself in the whites, one-day
internationals present a completely different story.

Sachin Tendulkar is inarguably the greatest ODI batsman of all-time, yet the manner in
which Kohli has been batting in the game’s intermediate format has forced even the
staunchest of Little Master supporters to frown a tad.

As the end of 2017 approaches, Kohli seems well on course to obliterating Sachin’s once
seemingly insurmountable tally of 49 ODI tons, having moved to second on the all-time
list.

Tendulkar had a sub-standard ODI record for the first five years of his career, failing to
bring home even one hundred in 76 attempts. The jinx was finally broken in September
1994, as a promotion up the order, against New Zealand early in the year, was a master-
stroke that galvanised him to unleash his naturally attacking game in the initial overs, and
pace his innings better.

In comparison, five years into his ODI career, Kohli had firmly entrenched himself in the
middle-order, especially after a stellar season that saw him hit two huge scores: one, a
breath-taking 133* (86) against Sri Lanka, and the other, a career-best 183 in the Asia
Cup against Pakistan, in a game that was, incidentally, Tendulkar’s final ODI for India.

A major feature of Sachin’s career was his contribution in big events: the Master Blaster
had, by the age of 29, played three World Cups (1992, 1996, 1999), as opposed to
Kohli’s tally of two, averaging 58.83 from 22 games with three centuries under his belt.

https://in.yahoo.com/style/14-psychological-tricks-everyone-know-150608402.html 6/14
11/5/2017 14 Psychological Tricks Everyone Should Know

Sachin scored nine ODI centuries in 1998

The year 1998, for him, was the golden streak of brilliance: the Desert Storm was just
one of many masterclasses from the Little Master that year, equivalent to Kohli’s form in
2016. Tendulkar blasted a jaw-dropping nine ODI centuries that year, and truly turned a
leaf in his career.

Tendulkar, at 29, had compiled these figures:

M - 287

R - 11,069

A - 43.92

SR - 86.66

Highest - 186*

Kohli, on the other hand, currently has these numbers:

M - 202

R - 9030

A - 55.74

SR - 91.73

Highest - 183

The 2013 series at home against Australia, where Kohli helped himself to two ODI
hundreds and received the Test captaincy the very next year, buoyed him further, even as
he took to a cleaner fitness schedule to become a top-notch player.

2016 was a watershed year for Kohli: as he settled in his role as a young team’s leader,
his responsibilities increased, further accentuating his game as one who thrived under
pressure. Records started falling with each passing game, and by 2017, with captaincy of
all three formats on him, he averages over 55 in the format.

His average is above 45 in every Test-playing country, despite encountering a brief dip in
2015, similar to Tendulkar’s numbers in 2000.

The team composition was different for Tendulkar post-2002: several match-winners
cropped up, giving him more space to play his game. A debilitating tennis elbow injury,
however, seemed to have sworn to cut short his brilliant career, but he fought hard, went
away from the game, and returned: measured, but equally effective.

The future holds even greater promise for Kohli: the second leg of his career will be with
a team that is shaping itself to realise the collective dream of winning the World Cup in
England.

When he embarks into the dreaded ‘30s’, Kohli might have to deal with slowing limbs,
sluggish reflexes, and, perhaps, a change of role in the team. How he re-invents himself,
holds the key to how his final numbers stack up.
https://in.yahoo.com/style/14-psychological-tricks-everyone-know-150608402.html 7/14
11/5/2017 14 Psychological Tricks Everyone Should Know

If Kohli continues his splendid form in the run-up to the marquee tournament in 2019, and
manages to maintain his ultra-shredded physique for the next decade, the passing of the
baton from the heir to the apprentice will be complete, and the honours, for the greatest
of all-time, might have to be shared.

Ensure jobs or quit throne: Rahul Gandhi

India Today 8 hours ago      

Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi once again attacked the Narendra Modi government on economy, posting
a Hindi couplet on social media website Twitter.

Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi continued what seems to have become a Twitter
campaign taking on the Narendra Modi government on various issues, mostly related to
the economy.

Sending out an early-morning tweet, Gandhi posted a couplet in Hindi saying, "Gas is
expensive, ration is expensive; Stop this empty talk; Control prices, provide jobs;
Otherwise leave the throne."

Rahul's tweet carried along with it a link to a Hindi news report regarding a hike in the
prices of LPG cylinders. The report claimed it was the 19th such hike in the last 16

Rahul's tweet comes as the Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party slug out in Gujarat,
which will vote in a new Assembly later next month. The two parties are also locked in an
election battle in Himachal Pradesh, where voting will be held this week.

Opinion polls have given BJP an advantage over the Congress in both the states, but the
former still seems to be a facing a tough fight in Gujarat, which will be going to the polls
for the first time since Prime Minister Narendra Modi left Gandhinagar for New Delhi.

The Congress and its vice-president have made economy one of their biggest election
issues. Gandhi has repeatedly attacked PM Modi and his finance minister Arun Jaitley
over demonetisation and the rollout of the Goods and Services Tax, which Rahul termed
'Gabbar Singh Tax' in another tweet.

The Gandhi scion, who is tipped to soon take over the grand old party from his mother
Sonia, has also displayed exceptional wit and humour on Twitter off late. His use of a
Hindi rhyme to target the Modi government isn't new - he recently posted a Mirza Ghalib-
inspired tweet to attack Finance Minister Jaitley.

"Sabko maaloom hai ease of doing business ki haqeeqat, khud ko khush rakhne ke liye
Dr Jaitley khayal achha hai," Rahul Gandhi tweeted last week.

Some of the Congress vice-president's other Twitter gems have included attacks related
to the economy, Indian culture and PM Modi's speeches.

Last month, Rahul said PM Modi trying to 'demon-etise' Tamil pride (a reference to state
BJP leaders opposing scenes related to GST in the Vijay-starrer Mersal) and asked him
to give Donald Trump another hug after the US president tweeted positively about the
current Pakistani leadership.

Gandhi also recently forecast a 'rain of jumlas' ahead of the prime minister visiting poll-
bound Gujarat and memorably shared a column in which former finance minister
Yashawant Sinha attacked the Modi government economy with a tweet saying, "Ladies &
Gentlemen, this is your copilot & FM speaking. Plz fasten your seat belts & take brace

This time it’s the first lady of Bollywood Gauri Khan who is getting trolled for what she
wore at her husband Shah Rukh Khan’s birthday party.

Shah Rukh who turned 53 threw a grand birthday bash in Alibaug which was attended by
all Bollywood A-listers. The guests and the hosts posted innumerable pictures of the fun
evening. The party started even before the sun went down so the stars were seen in their
casual summer wear and later changed into their designer wears for the glam evening.

Gauri Khan was donning a white transparent dress paired with a fuchsia bikini and that
was enough for the trolls to target her. She was accused of “not dressing according to her
age”. The comments went from bad to worse and was downright appalling.

Is Jio offering iPhone X for Rs 26,700? Yes


but there is a catch
India Today Sat, 4 Nov 3:29 PM GMT+3      

You can get your hands on the iPhone X for as low as Rs 26,700 - if you avail Reliance Jio's buyback
scheme.

The iPhone X is a gorgeous device that exudes premiumness thanks to its striking bezel-
less design and flowing edge-to-edge OLED display. It is powered by the lightning fast
A11 Bionic processor and comes with future forward AI tricks, excellent build quality and
wireless charging. The problem is that all this indulgence comes at a cost - almost one
lakh rupees. However, you can get your hands on the iPhone X for as low as Rs 26,700 -
if you avail Reliance Jio's buyback scheme.

On first glance the offer seems too good to be true - and some way it really is
mouthwatering. After all, Jio is ready to give back close to 70 percent of the MRP of the

11/5/2017 14 Psychological Tricks Everyone Should Know
g y g p
iPhone X - close to 70,000 rupees. However, as the popular saying goes - there are no
free lunches in the world - this scheme comes with its own set of caveats and terms and
conditions.

Jio's scheme comes with its own set of caveats and terms and conditions.

First of all you have to give the iPhone X back after a year to be eligible for the buyback. 
And the phone needs to be in mint condition. This offer is surely not for butter fingered
people. Secondly, you have to opt for a compulsory Rs 799/month plan which gives you
90GB (3GB per day) of 4G data and unlimited calling. You can also pay Rs 9,999 in one
go at the time of enrollment and get voice/data services for a whole year.

Remember, you will have to pay the entire Rs 89,000 (or Rs 1,02,000 of you are opting
for the higher-end 256GB variant) in one go whilst buying the iPhone X. You cannot just
pay Rs 26,700. You will receive Rs 62,300 back when you return the smartphone after
one year - that too if you have successfully met all of the above terms of the agreement.

Now, pessimism aside, the offer is pretty lucrative if you are fine with the fact that the
iPhone X will never truly be your own and that you will have to take pretty good care of it.
The monthly commitment (Rs 799) is a little steep however the amount of data on offer is
very generous. Plus the offer makes perfect sense for gadget junkies who like updating
their smartphones every year or so.

This offer makes perfect sense for gadget junkies who like updating their smartphones
every year or so.

However, you have to keep in mind that iPhones as a general rule of thumb have terrific
resale value. Also, most iPhone users tend to use their smartphones for at least two
years. Some even use them for three or four years - the phones do have the chops to last
that long in terms of build quality.

Even after two years, an iPhone can fetch a respectable amount of money in the second
hand market - thereby reducing the initial investment considerably. Buying the iPhone X
outside of the scheme also gives you the flexibility to opt for whichever plan you want
(spend less than Rs 799 per month if you wish) and also switch network operators if need
be.

How to avail Jio's offer


The buyback offer is valid for iPhone X's bought from Reliance retail stores, Jio.com,
MyJio or Amazon.in (only via seller Reliance Digital though). At the time of writing this
article, Jio.com is no longer selling the iPhone X outright. Instead, there is a register link
which will inform you when the smartphone comes back in stock.

However, you canstill buy the phone from any of the other options listed above and enroll
your smartphone for the buyback offer. You can enroll anytime before 31st December,
2017. To enroll, you have to follow these steps:
