Abdul Razzaq who was a prolific former Pakistan All-rounder said that players from Pakistan should not be compared to Indian cricketers. He also went on to say that Pakistan players have more talent as compared to Indian cricketers.
Other than this, Razzaq said that comparison between Virat Kohli and Babar Azam should not be made as they are completely different players having a difference in batting style. He said Pakistan has more talent and had great players in the past through which comparison should be drawn such as Inzamam-ul-Haq, Mohammad Yousuf, Zaheer Abbas, Saeed Anwar, Javed Miandad etc.
Further, he said that if you want to draw comparison between Babar Azam and Virat Kohli, then it is important that matches are held between Pakistan and India. Thus, we would be able to determine who is a better player among them. He also said that Virat Kohli is an excellent player and he has excellent record against Pakistan. I don-t have any problem with him but if Indian don-t compare their players with the Pakistan team, then we should not do that as well. India recently entered the finals of the ICC world test championship after crushing England to a 3-1 defeat in the four match series that ended this month. The Indian team led by Virat Kohli sits on the top of the table in test rankings while Pakistan is placed at the fifth place.
Also, in T20I and ODI, India ranks higher that Pakistan who are their arch rivals. India is sitting at second position in both ODI and T20I while Pakistan has sixth and fourth position in ODI and T20I respectively. The best part is that India has never lost against Pakistan in the world cup encounter.
Razzaq went all guns blazing about the performance of Babar and said that he is quite talented. Further, he has the calibre to break all the records. He said that Babar played under him for six years in ZTBL and he played him all the matches as the captain. He is a decent and a very talent batsman. Moreover, he has proved that on the world stage and currently he sits at the top of the rankings. If proper guidance is provided, then he can easily break all the records. Razzaq also feels that local coaches should be hired as they can understand the players in a better way as compared to foreign coaches.
