What Aamir said

Aamir Khan said he considered Sachin Tendulkar as a perfectionist. In the present, he thinks Virat Kohli and Jasprit Bumrah suit the same title.

For the unversed, Sachin Tendulkar retired on November 16, 2013. Three years after Tendulkar's retirement, Kohli stepped up and took his game even where Tendulkar didn't. In 2023, Kohli went on to break Tendulkar's record for the most ODI centuries. Kohli is currently playing with Royal Challengers Bangalore in the IPL.

Meanwhile, Jasprit is a right-arm fast bowler, who is renowned for his exceptional skill across all three formats of the game. Recently, during the IPL 2025 match against Lucknow Super Giants at the Wankhede Stadium, Bumrah surpassed Sri Lanka and MI lead Lasith Malinga to become the franchise's highest wicket-taker in IPL history, reaching a staggering 171 wickets.
