Current stars like Babar Azam and Virat Kohli are famous for this particular shot:
Lahore (Urdu Point Latest News. October 1, 2023) Cover drives are one of those cricket shots that still retain their uniqueness in this modern age of cricket. Some of the current stars like Babar Azam and Virat Kohli are famous for this particular shot and it is often debated as to who plays this shot better between the two. Indian skipper Rohit Sharma also weighed in on the matter when asked about the player who he believes has the best cover drive in the world.
In response, Sharma mentioned three names: Kohli, Babar and England's Joe Root. During a chat on YouTube channel Rohit Sharma said "Kohli, Babar, Joe Root, but I think Kohli has the best technique when it comes to cover drives.
However, Nasir Hussain, a former England cricketer-turned-commentator, expressed his view on the matter last year.
He said that if any young cricketer wants to master the art of cover drive, he should watch Babar Azam closely. Nasir Hussain had said that 'I am sorry Indian fans, I am biased and will go with Babar Azam. I almost went with Kohli but he is a bit different, he has a quick flick of the wrist but Babar has a traditional way of playing it." "If any young lad wants to learn cover drive, I would say look at Babar Azam," he added.
