Kapil Dev Would Have Outscored Gambhir and Afridi, Says Dev

Kapil Dev, the legendary all-rounder, believes he would have outscored Gautam Gambhir and Shahid Afridi if given the same opportunities today. With 9,031 international runs from 131 Tests and 225 ODIs, Kapil made his mark from 1978 to 1994, blending flamboyance with grit.

He argues that players like Sobers and Bradman set a benchmark for versatility and performance, and he considers himself in that elite company. Kapil’s confidence isn’t just nostalgic; he’s hinting that today’s game is ripe for aggressive batting, and he’d thrive in this environment.

The debate over who would outrun whom is sure to spark discussions among fans, with Gambhir and Afridi both having strong cases. But Kapil’s assertion reminds us of his explosive talent and the era he dominated. As we look forward to future debates, the cricketing world waits to see how modern players continue to evolve.
