Sri Lankan great spinner Muttiah Muralitharan needs no mark. He recently named the most troublesome batsmen in his entire career. He is named as Virender Sehwag of India and Brian Lara of West Indies. Muralitharan has now named batsmen among the current cricketers who could have done better. Let’s just say they named him Virat Kohli of India and Babar Azam of Pakistan.

Currently, both Virat and Babar are one of the best batsmen in the world and both cricketers play well against spinners. This time both cricketers are getting a chance to take over the captaincy of their team. Asked about the current players, Muralitharan, who has taken 800 wickets in Test cricket, said that perhaps Virat and Babar could easily play.

As for Kohli, “I played for Kohli in the 2011 World Cup and IPL. He plays well and directly with the bat. Muralitharan plays the former Indian cricketer and is currently the commentator on ESPN Cricinfo. I’ve seen it and he’s from the Indian subcontinent, so I hope he can play me well. ‘
