‘He is a much better player…’ Former Pakistan captain made a big statement comparing Virat Kohli and Joe Root

Indian cricket team’s star batsman Virat Kohli has completed the 76th century of his cricket career (Virat Kohli 76th Century). Batting brilliantly in the second Test against the West Indies, he scored an inning of 121 runs. At the same time, former Pakistani captain Salman Butt has praised King Kohli. Apart from this, on being asked by the fan, Salman has compared England’s star batsman Joe Root and Kohli.

Where on one side the Ashes series is being played between England and Australia. At the same time, India is on the tour of West Indies. Although Joe Root is seen playing very different from his cricket and Root is playing orthodox shots. At the same time, Salman Butt has been questioned by the fan in comparison to Root and Kohli.

Salman Butt said on his YouTube that “See, all your friends do the same thing and you must not be doing that thing. But sometimes when you sit with them, that thing happens to you or you do that. On the other hand, if you see the culture of Indian batsmen, be it new players or old ones, they always play shots according to their merit.

He further said about Kohli and Root that “the theme of the England team has become to play out of the box. In such a situation Joe Root is also there and he has also started playing such shots. Although they are not required to do so. But there he must have felt strange that all the players are playing like that. On the other hand, if someone does this in Team India, then it seems quite different, because the culture and atmosphere there are quite different. I don’t think Kohli needs to do that because he is a much better player.”
