India batting legend Sunil Gavaskar drew a comparison between former captain Virat Kohli and Pakistan's Javed Miandad.

Calling Virat Kohli a rare batter who likes to sledge bowlers, Gavaskar said that he has been different since his debut in Test cricket and he likes to get under their skin like Javed Miandad.

While terming Kohli's feat of playing 100 Test matches as an incredible achievement, Gavaskar said everyone will be wanting him to score a hundred in his 100th Test.

Virat Kohli is the 12th Indian player to play 100 Tests for his country. Sachin Tendulkar has played most 200 Tests for India.
