This is what Sachin Tendulkar tweeted after Virat Kohli's brilliant 82 to chase 161 against Australia at the World T20:
And here's Kohli's reply:Woooow @imVkohli ...special it was... Great win, fighting all the way! #IndvsAus

Yes, yes, Kohli was never going to say that he's better than Sachin Tendulkar. But now that he has, it's the perfect time to review the debate. And whichever way you look at it, Tendulkar will win it hands down. The attacks Sachin faced had Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis, Glenn McGrath, Allan Donald, Jason Gillespie, Shane Warne, Muttiah Muralitharan, Courtney Walsh, Curtly Ambrose, Darren Gough, Chaminda Vaas and more.. you get the hint right? Today's cricket simply lacks such fearsome bowlers. As a 27-year-old, Sachin was averaging 56.94 in Tests. Kohli averages 44.02.Thank You @sachin_rt paaji. Less special than you! 😇

And last but not the least - Sachin is Sachin yaar. The pioneer, the first Indian sports superstar in terms of name, fame, achievements and riches. The one who single-handedly inspired generations to take up the sport.
There's no doubt that Kohli is currently the world's best bat. He has some time to go before the comparisons can be taken seriously -- so it's better we celebrate him as Kohli, and not the next Sachin. Both are great in their own right.
