Can anyone explain how Kallis is leagues ahead of Kohli here?

Better peak, better longevity, better average, better overall record, better consistency, scored tons more often, scored 50’s way more often.

Kohli has a higher SR though so I understand the confusion. If you want someone who gets a lot of doubles and a lot of fails you can take him. Just keep an eye out so he doesn’t go missing for a few years.

Kohli is one of the best test batsmen of his generation. Kallis doesn’t have same distinction with reference to ODIs
