Journalists Brutal Question on Kohli Leaves Babar Azam Thinking

Babar Azam and Virat Kohli’s comparison has been going on for a while now. As Kohli continues to dominate the game even after retiring from two formats, Babar faces tough questions from the journalists. After a PSL clash, a journalist questioned him why he is not able to finish games like Virat Kohli.

One of the most heated debates in cricket recently has been related to the comparison between Babar Azam and Virat Kohli. The majority of the fans say that Kohli is the real King of the game, while some also argue on the fact that Babar has broken some records which were previously under Kohli's name.

In the PSL clash between Hyderabad Kingsmen and Peshawar Zalmi, Babar Azam scored 43 runs off 37 balls in the chase. Unfortunately, he was not able to finish the game for which he was also targeted later in the press conference. A reporter asked Babar Azam by saying, “Virat Kohli comes with the same shot of game as you but he finishes the match which you lack?”

Babar Azam looked a bit confused after this question. But he replied by saying, “Let these things to yourself. End the comparison and carry on. It's your misconception that I have not finished matches.”

Our Take

The comparison between Babar Azam and Virat Kohli has been going on for a while but it cannot be denied that there is only one King in the game, and it is Virat Kohli. He has not just anchored the innings for the Indian team. He also went on to play the role of a finisher, ensuring the fact that his team seals the game. Even in the interview, Babar Azam said that the comparison between him and Kohli should now be stopped.
