Interesting.
Kohli against Australia, England and South Africa : 1398 runs (15 matches) at 46.60 with 6 hundreds and 3 fifties.
Joe Root against Austrlia, South Africa and India : 671 runs (9 matches) at 44.73 with a single hundred and 5 fifties.
It seems that Smith comes out on top on almost every metric, but this particular comparison also shows that Kohli is not as far as everyone seems to think he is, that career average of 45 is only going one way, up.
Who is cricket's finest batsman?
Definitely agree with you on the ‘talent’ front. If he can elevate his performances in tests, surely he would be seen as the best of his era.

Well, I wanted to focus on who might be the ‘next’ best, considering that Ab and Amla are 32 and 33 repectively. Kohli, Smith, Root and Williamson are in pretty much the same age bracket.
Yes the three fortmats are very different but if say Kohli were to get his test average up to 50, would he not be the best across formats?, hypothetically speaking, but ofcourse, its not all about the numbers.
I personally think AB is the finest batsman in the world, he can score a 44 of 144 in tests and vice versa in ODIs. Now, that’s a pretty special player.
