Can Virat Kohli break Sachin Tendulkar's record? This is the question of every cricket fan. Bickering between Virat and Sachin fans over who is the better cricketer is not a new phenomenon. But what does Virat himself think? How does he feel compared to Sachin? While answering this question, Virat pulled another cricketer. In this interview through the digital broadcast of IPL, Virat was also asked how he feels when compared to Sachin. In response, Virat said, "I always smile in response to this question. Is there an answer to this? This comparison makes no sense. No one should be compared to Sachin Ken, Sir Viv Richards alone."Virat opened up about Sachin's influence in his life, though he did not directly answer the comparison.

He said, "Sachin's place in Indian cricket can be understood only by seeing how much influence Sachin has on a boy who is learning to play cricket." His place is very high in my life. Virat said that Sachin is behind him in becoming a cricketer. He still remembers every moment of sharing a dressing room with Sachin at the beginning of his cricket career. Virat said, "Seeing Sachin made me a cricketer. I saw him very closely in the dressing room. The more I saw, the more impressed I was. Sachin is my inspiration. I tried to use what I learned from him on the field.
