I'll go ahead and also state the obvious, Hiruzen wins. At that point, Sasuke's skilled and smart, and is proficient in the Sharingan. However at best, he's high-jonin level collectively, because apart from higher Chakra reserves, Kirin, and the Sharingan, Hiruzen is better at every aspect.

He's MUCH more experienced, and just as smart and skilled, so those 3 are Sasuke's only advantages, and even those fail, because Hiruzen still fought Orochimaru to a technical tie despite Orochimaru having more Chakra and being fitter, and the Kirin requires preparation, something Hiruzen will see through pretty quickly; and Hiruzen already knows to watch out for the Sharingan, and Sasuke's not truly exceptional at it, maybe almost as good as Kakashi but not as experienced. If it were Itachi, Hiruzen would likely not stand a chance in the Sharingan, but Sasuke, he can handle.

Overall, Hiruzen will win mostly through experience and perception. Sasuke beat Danzo, but he had the Susanoo and Amaterasu then, and Danzo's not as good as Hiruzen, this much we all know. And let's not forget Hiruzen will summon Enma, and 2v1 is NOT gonna look good for Sasuke.
