Ex-Pakistan opener Salman Butt opined that Babar Azam may not be as good as Virat Kohli but is the best batter the country has seen in the last 20 years. "The players who are trying to say they're match-winners...look at how many matches they've won...comparison is warranted," Butt added. Babar amassed 87 runs from two matches in Champions Trophy 2025.
