While speaking to former Pakistani bowler Tanvir Ahmed, the 42-year old said that the Indian skipper has truly established himself as an all-time cricketing great while Babar Azam still has a long way to go and prove himself on that level. Chopra admitted that Babar Azam is an exciting talent but also said that Virat Kohli is way ahead of him at the moment.
Babar Azam has the necessary skills to reach that point: Chopra
Chopra touched upon how Babar Azam will need to keep his discipline and fitness in check and have that passion propelling him forward - something that Virat Kohli too didn’t have built in him, but was something he developed over the course of his career.
Chopra expressed that drawing comparisons between the two cricketers at the start of their careers is a bit unfair. He also spoke about the passion Virat Kohli has that impels him towards greatness.
While Kohli is already termed as a modern day legend and an all-time great, Babar Azam is set to become Pakistan’s finest batsmen ever considering his exquisite performances across all formats. It is his immaculate consistency that has earned him the captaincy of Pakistan in white-ball cricket.
