Virat Kohli test average in 90s era would be?

[PlayerComparisons]

Oh 54 as per you , I thought you said 64 , i don't think he will average 64

No I said 44

 

[Johan]

Kohli won't have his 2014 BGT but he probably won't have his England debacle either, tough one.

Sachin would have been a great mentor to him

 

[Fuller Pilch]

I think with his hotheaded, impulsive personality he may've gone off the rails ala Kambli or got influenced by fixers.

He was born in 1988. So, he would have been 2 - 12 years old. Prodigy though he may have been, let's say he averages zero from 2-8 and then I'll be generous and say that if he was facing some of those England-style medium pacer led attacks and based on him being a prodigy, he would average 15 at age 12, 10 at age 11, 8 at age 10 and 5 at age 9. Assume 10 tests per annum would give him 380 runs in the 1990s. Therefore, an average of 3.8.

Still better than Chris Martin.

I don't know why you think it would be higher than it is now

That average isn't actually reflective of his worth though. Think about the number of above-head-height wides a two-year-old Kohli would accumulate for his team.

I would argue Virat won't see his 3rd birthday tbh

On the other hand, running between the wickets could be a problem. Impeding the scores of his fellow batsmen.

EDIT: In fact, Timed Outs could be a serious problem for young Virat in 1990.

Doesn't mean he couldn't average 58.

Would need a flexible batting order if he was in an afternoon nap when a wicket fell.

Day night tests would be a problem as well.

There were none in the 90s bitç

There was almost no Kohlis in the 90s either.
