Virat Kohli and Babar Azam are compared every now and then by cricket experts and fans. However, everyone has his opinion and viewpoint with some backing Virat while others go with Babar.
Sri Lanka’s legendary cricketer Sanath Jayasuriya decided to join the debate. Speaking to Sportskeeda, he said, “I like Virat Kohli. He is my favorite player and also my son’s favorite player too.”
Despite India’s elimination from the Asia Cup 2022, Virat Kohli was in superb form and smashed a hundred and two fifties.
He registered an unbeaten 122 off 61 balls with the help of 12 fours and 6 sixes. The former captain also received praise from Ravi Shastri.
“With Virat Kohli in the team, you can consider him as a third opener, which allows the team management to pick an extra fast bowler, as well as an extra batsman in the middle order. It opens door for someone else,” he said.
