How so? His stats in England is tailenderesque, as you know. Apart of qualification rounds in WC, Kohli's ODI stats are perfect. His average in tests is inflated by Lanka and Bangladesh at home.

If I remember right, he was the only player from either side to score a century in the recent Test series between the #1 and the #2 ranked teams played in SA.
 
Kohli is underrated in tests.

He was the only opposition batsmen to have succeeded in the recent home season of South Africa when the contenders were Smith, Warner and a couple of Indian batsmen as well.

Playing a strong SA attack in SA is a real challenge and Kohli succeeded with flying colours and that too on tough pitches.

However, he still has a long way to go and hence need to maintain the peak for 3-4 years if he has to become a top tier ATG like Tendulkar and Gavaskar.

Tendulkar is one of the most complete batsman to ever play the game.. Most likely the best ever so he gets a 10.
Kohli - 8.5
Gavaskar - 9.5
Dravid - 9.25
Sehwag - 8.5
Laxman - 8
Azhar - 0

We are talking about batting abilities here and Bradman was a 1 compared to batting abilities of today’s cricketers.. As a cricketer and impact wise he might be the best but as a batsman compared to today’s time he is lucky to be given a 1.
 
Sachin: 9.5
Gavaskar: 9.5 (because he is an opener)
Dravid: 9.25
Kohli: 8.5 (can go up)
Sehwag: 8.75
VVS: 9
Azhar: 8 (some points for captaincy at home)
