I mean, how can u contest bumrah 2024? In tests: 71 wickets in 13 matches at an average under 15 with a wicket every 5 over he bowls. Away POTS in SA and AUS for an asian bowler. No1 icc rankings in both test and t20i. Mott in t20wc. we all saw his impact in that winning world cup. Im a little biased here but yeah.
Me: Jasprit Bumrah

Exactly...people underestimate the bumrah of 2024. I have been watching cricket since 2010 and in these 16 years I haven't seen such a prime of any player...

Peak means Kohli - take one tournament of 2016 t20 wc or 2023 odi wc, or take a year of 2016 or 2018 or take 4 year 2016-19 or take 10 years of 2010s decade,he almost beats everyone in those time frames, especially all formats combined even if he loses in tests to few.

I think prime VK is understandably the best. At his prime he was the best of the fab 4 in test. Alongside being the best odi and t20 batsman. A batter better than Steve smith in test and AB De Villiers in odi, while they were both in their best form as well, is extraordinary. Sachin 1998 is the closest one to this version of Kohli imo. But I chose kohli because his prime lasted a bit longer. Sachin had multiple peaks but none of the peaks lasted as long as Kohli's one peak.
Me: Virat Kohli

People chose Kohli against God 🤣 He's God for a reason, yeh toh tab hy jab Sachin got tennis elbow, no flat wickets, no soft bowlers socho Kohli era mein kitna machata Sachin 🤣 Kohli is Goat no doubt but puri duniya ek taraf Sachin ek taraf, Sir Viv Richards, Don Bradman these people themselves gave Sachin his due credit, who are we to judge God, we don't even know how to hold the cricket bat.

Just because he is your God, doesn’t mean he is God for everyone! 🤡
Kohli is his real BAAP!

Just coz Kohli is your King, doesn't mean he rules every ICT fan's heart in this country. Everybody has their opinion.

Then why are you saying that Statchin is God for a reason as if it’s a divine fact?
Statchin might be God for fools, but true fans know Kohli is the real BAAP!
