Superstar Virat Kohli

 Babar Azam is currently the No.1 ODI batter. How has Virat Kohli impacted the Pakistan skipper's game? Dinesh Karthik & Zaheer Khan discuss, on Cricbuzz Live.

 Almost a year after remaining mum, Babar Azam has finally responded to Virat Kohli's compliment from 2022 ahead of India vs Pakistan Asia Cup 2023 match.

 With the continental event coming up, starting August 30 with Pakistan up against qualifier Nepal, cricket experts reignited the Kohli vs Babar debate.

 Virat Kohli warmly recalled his interaction with Babar Azam and lavished praise on the Pakistan captain, heralding him as "one of the top batters in the world across formats."

 "Virat Kohli just showed his class today. It was a close game and people enjoyed it."

 Virat Kohli believes there is a healthy amount of respect between the India and Pakistan players, despite the fierce on-field rivalry between the two sides.

 Cummins pointed out a major similarity between four of the top batters in international cricket.

In the modern-era, Virat Kohli and Babar Azam are regarded as two of the finest batsmen. However, a former Pakistan player has reckoned that comparisons between the two are utter nonsense.

Pak batsman has been quicker than Kohli to reach the milestones of 1,000, 2,000 and 3,000 runs.
