Miandad’s got holes in his resume in Aus and WI. Kohli probably in England, but he atleast had one tour of greatness there. Also has had to contend with more sporting pitches than the concrete slabs in Pak(and umpiring biases).

Miandad’s very overrated. Was amazing against spin, did very well in NZ, ok in Eng(massively improved his record vs weak attacks late in his career, Kohli’s 2018 series miles over that), but was weak against WI and Aus, and batted on concrete slabs at home.

Also that he wasn't given lbw at home for like a stretch of 10 years.....

Still rate him ahead of Kohli atm for longevity

Kohli would probably average 55+ with Miandads home pitches and umpires. Really hope he gets that average back over 50 so he stops being so underrated.
