Babar has always treated him with “respect and regard,” according to Kohli, who claimed he first met him during the 2019 World Cup, and that hasn’t changed despite Babar’s rise in prominence.
Babar is currently “the top batsman in the world across formats,” according to Kohli, who also praised him as the type of player that cricket needs. “The 2019 World Cup after the match in Manchester was our first encounter.
