IND vs PAK: You Can't Compare His Class To Others – Shoaib Malik Hails “Beast” Virat Kohli After T20 World Cup Heroics vs Pakistan

Veteran Pakistan National Cricket Team batting all-rounder Shoaib Malik was highly impressed with India National Cricket Team batter Virat Kohli’s extraordinary performance in the high-voltage India-Pakistan ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022 game at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground on Sunday, October 23.

The modern-day batting legend Virat Kohli was at his absolute best in the high-profile game against Pakistan at the MCG. He smashed remarkable 82 runs off 53 balls, including 6 fours and 4 sixes, to help Team India seal a 4-wicket win in the nail-biting encounter. Also, Kohli, who won the Player of the Match award, had a sensational 113-run partnership in 78 balls with Hardik Pandya.

After the match, Malik took to Twitter to shower praise on Kohli. He stated that Kohli’s class can’t be compared to any other player in world cricket.

“What a Game of cricket we’ve just witnessed & this guy Virat Kohli is absolutely a Beast!! You cannot compare his class to any other player in the world in white ball cricket. He can anchor, he rotates the strike, he can hit sixes and he knows how to finish the Game!,” he tweeted.

Shoaib Malik Shares His Views On Controversial No-ball In IND vs PAK Game

On the 4th ball of the ridiculously thrilling final over of the T20 World Cup India-Pakistan high-octane clash, spinner Mohammad Nawaz delivered a high full-toss to Virat Kohli and the batter smashed the ball for a stunning six over the deep square leg.

Kohli instantly protested for a no-ball, and the on-field umpires made a late decision in India’s favour. The Babar Azam and Co. protested following the no-ball call, but the decision was retained.

Meanwhile, Shoaib Malik opined that the on-field umpires should have consulted the third umpire before making a decision on the no-ball. He said:

“When you have an option, you should take the help from the third umpire, especially in such a big match at a crunch situation. Anyone can make a mistake but they should have consulted the third umpire. If the decision was taken after the replays which we saw it would have been better.”
