England leg spinner Adil Rashid was recently asked to do a very tough job. He had to choose the better batsman between Indian captain Virat Kohli and newly appointed Pakistan limited overs skipper Babar Azam. Rashid went ahead and picked the Pakistani middle order batsman over Kohli but clarified that his choice was based on current form.
“Ahhh… it’s a tough one. Well, it’s a tough one. So you got to go on the current form… I think I got to go for Babar Azam on current form. I am taking form here…I say Babar Azam is in better form so I picked Babar Azam. But they both are world class players anyway,” the leg-spinner, who won the ICC World Cup in 2019, said during an interview with At the Crease TV.
