Joe Root vs Sachin Tendulkar comparison

I challenge you to list unique Root records that are not tied to longevity.
Joe Root has 7 150+ scores as a captain and only Bradman and Kohli has got more 150+ scores as a captain.

Joe Root has scored 8800+ Runs at 49+ AVG against top 5 teams of his era which is already More than Sachin against best teams that too with a better average.
Where Sachin scored 8498 runs at 46.6 AVG against best teams of his era (90s aus, sa ,wi , pak + 00s sl ,eng , Aus ,sa , Pak )

None of the above are records.

If he is behind Bradman and Kohli that means the record belongs to Bradman and even if you remove him it belongs to Kohli.

Next?
 
You don't have any argument for Sachin other than trolling root?
Sachin AVG is 40+ in pak is only due to Rahul Dravid who stopped him from statspading yet another 200, so that not out helped his AVG.

Sachin home record against sa is terrible.

Root only struggled against aus, Sachin struggled against both best bowling teams of 00
 
Now Joe Root has more 50+ scores than Sachin even though Root has played around 40 less innings than Sachin.
That’s again based on Longevity

His innings per century is 7.38
Sachins innings per century 6.45

Sachin leads here too.

Also its not like Joe Root has the best innings per 50 stats. Its all based on longevity.

If Rahul didn’t stop him he would have gotten to a double century and still be not out, that would raise his average instead of reducing it.

Sachin Tendulkar has 68/69 50+ scores in 329 innings
Joe Root has already break that record in 287-290 innings

That’s because unlike Root, Sachin converted those 50s to centuries.

Root has 39 centuries plus 66 50s which means a total of 105 50 + scores in 288 innings. Thats is 288/105 which gives 2.74 innings per 50.

Sachin has 51 centuries plus 68 fifties, which is 119 50+ centuries in 329 innings.

That’s is 329/119 which gives 2.75, there is absolutely no difference?

Infact Roots conversation rate is llower than Sachin.

Root plays more than 70 percent of matches against big 4 so lower conversion rate is expected.
 
If thats the case then why does he have less centuries than Sachin against big 4 of his time?

Sachin has 29 , Root has 23

I calculated about these stats 7 months ago
You are counting pak for Sachin means big 5 teams.
 
Tendulkar is a better batsman.
Understatement of the decade...LOL

I refuse to accept that Root is better than Kohli...let alone Goddy.

Stats can say whatever. Every Pakistani that is posting here will take Sachin or Kohli in their team in a heartbeat over Root.

Then you must be refusing to accept Sachin as a better batsman than Kohli because Kohli played 121/210 innings in low scoring matches where Rpw less than 30 while sachin played only 103 /329 innings in low scoring matches.

Can't fathom a case for Kohli over Root in Test Cricket which extends beyond xenophobia.
