The Story in Brief
Robin Uthappa, the former India batter, has placed Virat Kohli at No.4 in his all-time Test XI, ahead of Sachin Tendulkar, sports.ndtv.com reports. Uthappa played alongside both legends during his international career. He reasoned that Kohli's impact and consistency, especially in away tours, earned him the spot. Tendulkar retired from Tests in 2013; Kohli quit the format last year. Uthappa's XI also includes Sunil Gavaskar, Rahul Dravid, and Anil Kumble, among others.
The Indian Opinion
This selection will inevitably reignite the Kohli vs Tendulkar debate, but it is just one former player's subjective choice. Neither man's legacy is diminished by a personal XI. The real test of greatness is not a single batting order but decades of runs under pressure. A more meaningful question: how many all-time XIs from different eras would include both? Probably all.
