But there are some things in which Babar Azam is similar to Virat Kohli. Speaking on Fox Cricket’s YouTube channel, Khawaja said- “He doesn’t always bat like Virat. But when you watch him bat he looks like Virat” Babar Azam was a superflop in the ODI World Cup The ODI World Cup 2023 was held in India and in this mega tournament, Team India had to face defeat in the final against Australia. Pakistan team also came to India for this tournament. But playing under the leadership of Babar Azam, the team could not perform as expected.

Why is Virat Kohli not able to score big in the ODI series against Sri Lanka? Former Pakistani player made a big revelation
Virat Kohli scored 24 runs in the first ODI while he scored 14 runs in the second match. Virat Kohli and Basit Ali (Pic Source-X) Virat Kohli, the best batsman of the Indian team, is currently participating in the 3-match ODI series against Sri Lanka. So far, two matches have been played in this ODI series and Virat Kohli’s performance has been very poor in both. Virat Kohli scored 24 runs in the first ODI while he scored 14 runs in the second match. In both these matches, Virat Kohli was seen having a lot of trouble against the spinners. It has been seen very rarely that Virat Kohli has had trouble against the spinners but in this series, the experienced batsman has failed to perform well. The most surprising thing about Virat Kohli was that he was LBW in both these matches. Recently, former Pakistani cricketer Basit Ali has put forth his opinion on Virat Kohli’s poor form. Basit Ali said on his official YouTube channel, ‘Virat Kohli, who is the world’s number 1 batsman, has been LBW twice. If this had happened to Shreyas Iyer or Shivam Dubey, it would have been understandable, but Virat Kohli is Virat Kohli. This means that he is not practicing.’ Former Pakistani player made a big statement about India’s batting lineup Basit Ali further said, ‘It does not seem at all that this is the same batting lineup that ruled the world. I think Shreyas Iyer and KL Rahul have not even practiced yet. These people have come without practice. I don’t understand at all what Shreyas Iyer will do after such a performance. I think now the time has come that Rishabh Pant, Riyan Parag and Rinku Singh should come back to the Indian team. India’s ODI domestic tournament will be very important for Gautam Gambhir as the head coach can take some players from there as well. If India selects players on the basis of reputation then the result of Champions Trophy 2025 will be very bad for them. 5 Australian players who scored half-century in their debut IPL match IPL 2024: These 11 foreign players took crores of rupees but flopped IPL 2024: 5 players who hit the most sixes in the 19th and 20th overs of IPL 5 fastest bowlers in IPL history Who are the head coaches of all 10 teams in IPL 2024?
