It’s a matter of time. Virat Kohli, who is called the emperor of batting, has not been in constant form for the last two to three years. Going through bad form. He hasn’t even got a century in the last 3 years. Obviously, their ranking will be affected. Babar Azam Captain Pakistan Cricket Team, who considers India’s mighty batsman Virat Kohli as his idol, has overtaken captain Kohli in all three formats of international cricket in the latest ICC rankings. This has happened for the first time in history.
It is worth noting that for some time, Virat Kohli had already lagged behind Babar Azam in the ICC World Rankings of ODI and T20I. Now, Virat Kohli has slipped from the seventh position to the 9th position in the ICC Test rankings as well. If Virat Kohli has to rise above Babar Azam, then he will have to score a lot of runs while batting well.
According to the ICC Rankings, Babar Azam Captain Pakistan Cricket Team is at number 8 in Test cricket with 750 points and Indian captain Virat Kohli is at 9th position with 747 points. Babar Azam is at the top of the ODI rankings with 873 points and Virat Kohli is at the second position with 844 points. Talking about One Day International, there is a big difference between the points of both the players. In T20Is, Babar Azam, the batting batsman and captain of the Pakistan cricket team, is at the second position with 805 points. And, Virat Kohli is also out of the top ten. Let’s know the recent performance of both the players, based on which their latest ICC rankings are.
