Former Australia spinner Brad Hogg believes that Pakistan batsman Babar Azam is a better player than India batsman Lokesh Rahul in limited overs cricket.
Hogg acknowledged that Rahul is a batsman capable of excelling in “different scenarios” and “shows great temperament”.
But, he gave Azam the upper hand due to the fact that the 25-year-old “is the main man for Pakistan and done it for a longer period than Rahul”.
