Former England captain Nasser Hussain also praised Babar’s cover drives and said if he was teaching any young boy how to play cover drives, he would ask them to watch Babar play it.
“I’m going to be biased. Sorry Indian fans but I’m gonna go with Babar Azam. I nearly went Kohli because I think Kohli is slightly different. Kohli has a bit more of a flick of the wrist of it. Babar Azam has just a lovely little [touch],” Nasser stated.
It is pertinent to mention here that Babar is the only batter in the world currently to feature in the top five across all formats.
