The PAK politician even hailed Babar Azam as better than Virat Kohli and said that India doesn’t have a lethal pacer like Shaheen Afridi.
“Babar Azam is a better player than Virat Kohli when it comes to general comparison. India does not have a single fast bowler like Shaheen Afridi. I really want to see Babar Azam score a century and so Shaheen Afridi take the wicket of Virat Kohli on the Indian soil,” he said.

Winning a World Cup is special but the importance of Pakistan winning the ICC trophy in India will be something unprecedented.”
