Virat Kohli’s Record in Clutch Situations

Recently, Virat Kohli scored his 51st ODI century against Pakistan in the Champions Trophy, which helped the team India to achieve a dominating victory against their arch rival. Kohli’s this century helped him to set a milestone of 82 international centuries in his name.

Unlike what Shehzad hinted, Kohli’s this century also comes into a pressured situation, just like other centuries against the top countries like Australia, England, Sri Lanka, and South Africa.

On the other hand, Babar Azam has 31 centuries in his name, which makes him one of the top batters in world cricket. But some critics think that most of the centuries come in low-pressure games.

Ahmed Shehzad’s comments once again fuel the discussion around Virat Kohli vs. Babar Azam.

Undoubtedly, both are world-class players, but game management and clutch performance in high-pressure games make Kohli a better player.
