Former England captain Michael Vaughan stirred up a hornet’s nest when he claimed that simply because Virat Kohli is from India, all people charges him as the perfect batter of the present period to get extra clicks and likes. He claimed that individuals keep away from ranking different batters together with the likes of Kane Williamson as higher than Kohli solely to keep away from ‘pelting on social media’.
However, former Pakistan batter Salman Butt has taken a dig at Vaughan’s personal file and mentioned the Englishman makes up such comparisons solely to remain within the limelight.
“Williamson is great. He’s a top-class batsman and the best in the world. There is no doubt. If we talk about the fabulous five in world cricket, he’s very much there. Among these five, if you are analysing anyone solely on the basis of captaincy, tactically everyone is good. But Williamson is slightly ahead of them in terms of this. Vaughan though has maybe compared on the basis of record. Kohli’s stats and performance put him way ahead of others,” he mentioned.
