Babar vs. Kohli: Ian Smith Weighs In on Cricketโ€™s Hottest Debate

The Babar Azam vs. Virat Kohli debate just got a fiery new twist! Former Pakistan head coach Mohsin Khan has made a bold statement, calling Kohli a “zero” in comparison to Babar. Yes, you read that rightโ€”zero.

His remarks have already set social media on fire, with fans from both sides jumping into the debate. But Mohsin insists that the real problem isnโ€™t the comparisonโ€”itโ€™s the state of Pakistan cricket.

“Pakistan Cricket is Completely Ruined”

While speaking in an interview, Mohsin didnโ€™t hold back. He expressed deep disappointment over Pakistanโ€™s recent struggles, blaming a lack of planning, strategy, and merit-based selections.

“The real problem is that Pakistan cricket is completely ruined. There is no planning, strategy, merit, or accountability.”

According to him, personal interests and favoritism have hurt the team. He recalled his time as chief selector, claiming that during his tenure, he always picked players based on merit.

“As long as recommendations are involved, anyone can be selected for the team. When I was the chief selector, I made selections with the grace of Allah, always choosing the best possible team.”

Babar Azamโ€™s Recent Struggles

Babar, once the backbone of Pakistanโ€™s batting, is going through a rough patch. His last century came against Nepal in August 2023, and since then, the big scores have dried up.

Now, opening the innings in the ICC Menโ€™s Champions Trophy 2025 and the recent tri-series, he has failed to make an impact.

His scoresโ€”10, 23, 29, 64, and 23โ€”have left fans frustrated. Critics are starting to question whether the pressure of captaincy and constant comparisons are affecting his game.

Babar Azam- Virat Kohli Comparison โ€“ Necessary or Unfair?

Mohsinโ€™s โ€œzeroโ€ remark will definitely spark reactions, but does it really hold weight? Kohli, a proven match-winner, has achieved greatness over the years. Babar, while immensely talented, is still navigating his journey.

Rather than debating who is better, perhaps the focus should be on helping Babar regain his best form. Pakistan cricket needs its star batter back in full flow.

Whatโ€™s your take on Mohsin Khanโ€™s statement? Is the comparison fair, or is it just another unnecessary debate?
