Karachi Former captain of the Indian team Mohammad Azharuddin has praised Pakistan limited overs team captain Babar Azam but did not pay attention when asked to compare him with Indian captain Virat Kohli. Virat and Azam are constantly being compared in international cricket. Azhar, however, admitted that Azam has the necessary ability to be included in the list of top level players.
Cricket Pakistan quoted Azharuddin as saying, “Babur is still young and has a lot of cricket left in him. He has the ability to be the top batsman and get his name included in the list of Pakistan’s great batsmen.”
Regarding the comparison of Virat and Azam, Azhar said, “I don’t believe in comparison. If the batsman is good, enjoy his batting, and he should be praised more than comparing anyone.”
Azam himself said a few days ago that he does not like to be compared to Kohli but instead wants him to be compared to the great batsmen of Pakistan.
