Pakistan limited overs captain Babar Azam has admitted that he is “way behind” India skipper Virat Kohli and still has “a lot to achieve”.

Azam has regularly been compared to Kohli, but the 25-year-old has repeatedly played it down.

However, Azam admitted that he wants to do what Kohli does for India, which is to lead by example with the bat and win matches for his country.
