Virat Kohli vs Babar Azam: Pakistan’s white-ball skipper is one of the best batsmen in the world. He is climbing the world stage at a scary rate and is catching up to every record visible to him.
In the last T20i match against England, he became the second batsman after Virat Kohli to achieve 4,000 runs in T20 cricket. It took him only 112 innings to achieve this feat and is looking scary before the T20 World Cup.
India and Pakistan are in a fairly easy group in the upcoming ICC T20 World Cup 2024. Their match against each other will most probably determine which will grab the top spot in Group A. And these two batsmen will majorly define this game.
Virat Kohli Vs Babar Azam
During the last match against England, Babar played a decent knock and scored 36 runs off just 22 deliveries. He gave his team a strong start alongside Mohammad Rizwan.
With this, he has now become the second-highest scorer in T20 cricket leaving players like Rohit Sharma behind. He is just 12 runs behind Virat Kohli with 4022 runs in 112 innings. It took Kohli 5 less innings to reach this milestone.
Babar has now scored 4023 runs in 112 innings with an average of 41.05. He has also become the first and only batsman to hit 400 boundaries in the shortest format of the game.
India Vs Pakistan ought to be a blockbuster match and Babar and Kohli will massively decide the game. In recent years, Kohli has mostly come out on top of this clash, but he has been absent from the T20i for so long and Babar has been constantly playing this format in every country.
