#1 Virat Kohli vs Glenn McGrath
While Kohli is one of the best batsmen of this generation, Glenn McGrath, without any doubt, was one of the most feared bowlers of his generation.
During the fast bowlers' reign for 15 years, Australia enjoyed their golden era of the game. Nicknamed 'Pigeon', McGrath helped Australia win three World Cups on the trot. Australia was the No.1 Test side predominantly during his career. The Australian legend can easily be called as one of the greatest fast bowlers this game has ever produced.
Virat Kohli, who debuted two years after McGrath's retirement, has taken the cricketing world by surprise by dominating the game like no other batsman in the modern era did. He is easily the best batsman in the past decade.
Both these legendary players are famous for their aggressive mentality as they expressed their emotions on the field without second thoughts.
What would have happened had Virat Kohli played against McGrath in a Test series Down Under? Would Kohli have enjoyed similar success with the 'Pigeon' being around?
The rivalry between these two players would have stolen the headlines during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. We, as fans, are unlucky not to have these two stars in the same era.
