Faf du Plessis has very good observations about Indian captain Virat Kohli and Pakistan captain Babar Azam. Duplessis said that the two are high-quality players and there are similarities between the two. Duplessis made the observation in an interview with a Pakistani media while playing in the Pakistan Super League.
“There are similarities between Kohli and Babar. Both are very high-quality players. Over the past year, Babar has taken his game to another level. He has a very bright future. I think Babar has surprised people with his T20 game. People do not see him as a strong player. But his performance in the T20s is excellent, ”said Duplessis.
Babar Azam, 26, leads Pakistan in all three formats. The PCB also handed over the Test captaincy to Babar, who had earlier captained the team in limited-overs matches. Babar, who is ranked second in the T20I rankings, is third in ODIs and fifth in Tests. Kohli is number one in the ODI rankings and number two in the Test rankings. Virat is ranked 9th in the T20I. Kohli also holds the rare record of having an average of over 50 in all three formats.
