"Plus they get a lot of help with quality fitness trainers. They have also got a lot of physios and doctors on board. Any niggle that is starting to happen people can get on top of it straight away", replied Hogg "Therefore players miss less games and of course there is a lot more cricket being played these days. So yes, he can break that record," Hogg added. During the course of his glittering career, Tendulkar notched up a monumental 100 centuries smashed 51 Test tons and 49 centuries in ODIs. Indian skipper Kohli who is widely hailed a prolific run scorer and ton maker currently finds himself third on the list as he has racked up a combined total of 70 international tons (27 in Tests and 43 in ODIs Former Australia skipper Ricky Ponting scored 71 international centuries during his trophy-laden career and he takes the second spot in this high-profile list.

Hogg was also posed a question by a fan as to which bowling attack did he think of being the best in the the world currently. Hogg picked up the current Indian seam bowling unit as the best among the rest at present. Pointing towards the statistics during their victorious tour of Australia last time, Hogg stated Indian bowlers have been a dominant force in world cricket for a while now. "I am going to go with the start of the series between Australia and India in November 2018. Indian bowling attack has dominated world cricket," Hogg said. "India's pace attack take wickets quicker that any other team and they have played against some good teams... Australia...South Africa...they played against Bangladesh as well and couple of other good teams. "That's why India are pretty dominant. The batsmen led them down in New Zealand but that pace attack is the best going around," he added.
