VIRAT KOHLI IS THE BEST BATSMAN IN THE WORLD SAYS MOHAMMAD AMIR

Pakistan Left-arm sensation Mohammad Amir in an interview to Times of India on Tuesday piled on praise for India’s Master Batsman Virat Kohli.

The talented left arm pacer, who made a cracking comeback to international cricket against India in Asia Cup 2016, has said that India’s ace batsman Virat Kohli currently is the best batsman in  world cricket.

Mohammad Amir recalled Kohli’s knock against Pakistan at the Asia Cup earlier this year when Amir ripped India’s top order apart at the start of the innings but the right-handed batsman came to the rescue and took the match away from Pakistan.

“Kohli certainly is the best (batsman) in the world, and is having a great run at the moment. The Asia Cup encounter is a case in point,” said Amir.

“The wicket wasn’t the easiest to bat on, and India were in a spot of bother when Kohli walked in. He was able to negotiate those tough times and come out unscathed.”

“That’s the hallmark of big players like Kohli. They dig in deep, weather out those rough passages of play and ensure they take their side home,” Amir added.
