Virat Kohli: Team India's great batsman Virat Kohli is considered to be the best batsman of the present era.

He has set some such records in the cricket world, which will not be easy for anyone to break. But there is also a camp of fans, who consider Pakistan's white ball captain Babar Azam a better batsman than Virat. But now the Australian legend has put a full stop to this debate. Let us give you complete information on the matter.

Who is the better batsman?

Australia's dashing opening batsman Usman Khawaja expressed his views on the comparison between Virat Kohli and Babar Azam in his recent interview.

He did not clearly state who is the better batsman, but with his answer he has put an end to the ongoing debate among the fans. He said that there are many things in Babar Azam's batting that are similar to Virat Kohli's batting technique.

What did Usman Khawaja say?

In a video shared by Fox Cricket on YouTube, Usman Khawaja said that Babar Azam bats like Virat Kohli in many things, if not completely. He said,

“Babar Azam doesn't always bat like Virat, but for some reason when you watch him play, he feels like Virat in many ways.”

What do the statistics say?

If we look at the head to head statistics of Babar Azam and Virat Kohli, the Pakistani batsman is nowhere in front of Virat.
