�Tendulkar would have scored 1.30 lakh runs�

LAHORE, May 21: Former Pakistan speedster Shoaib Akhtar feels it is not right to compare former India cricketer Sachin Tendulkar and current skipper Virat Kohli because the �Master Blaster� set numerous records while batting in the �toughest era of cricket�.

Kohli is widely regarded as Tendulkar�s second coming in Indian cricket and the �Delhi Dasher� has already broken few records set by his idol as well.

Despite acknowledging Kohli as a modern-day phenomenon, Akhtar stated Tendulkar came up against tougher oppositions and that is why comparison cannot be made between the two.

�Tendulkar batted in the toughest era of cricket.

If he had to get the chance now, he may hit more than 1.30 lakh runs. So it�s not good to make a comparison between Sachin and Kohli,� Akhtar said during a live video session on Helo app. � IANS
