Srinagar: Former Pakistan pacer and current coach of PSL side Lahore Qalandars Aaqib Javed has made explosive statement related to Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and Babar Azam ahead of India vs Pakistan Asia Cup 2023 clash.
According to Aaqib, Kohli has been doing extremely well in patches, though he feels the former India captain is not as consistent as Pakistan current skipper Babar Azam.
“If you compare Kohli with Babar, Kohli has a few seasons. He’ll have an outstanding one season and then it will decline, he’s a great player in patches,” said Aaqib said in an media interaction.
“But he is not as consistent as Babar Azam. Babar, as captain, his spot is cemented and the players want to listen to him. I think this is the best chance for Pakistan to win the World Cup,” he added.
When asked further about captain Rohit Sharma, the ex-Pakistan World Cup-winning pacer said that India skipper won’t be around for long,
“How long is Rohit Sharma going to play?
Both archrivals India and Pakistan are scheduled to face each other in the Asia Cup as well as in the World Cup.
