Virat Kohli Compared To Cristiano Ronaldo By Ex-Pakistan Star In Big Praise: "Complete Package..."

Former Pakistan pacer Mohammad Amir has likened Virat Kohli to Portuguese footballing icon Cristiano Ronaldo, labelling him as a complete package. Amir compared Kohli's work ethic and fitness to Ronaldo, and explained why fans love him across the globe. He also praised Kohli for his longevity while playing at the highest level. Kohli, 36, scored a century last week as India beat Pakistan in the Champions Trophy in Dubai. Despite Kohli tormenting their team once again, Pakistan fans were chanting the former India captain's name on streets.

After Jos Buttler's Decision To Step Down, Nasser Hussain Backs Young Star As New England Captain

Former England captain Nasser Hussain has thrown his support behind Harry Brook to take over as England's next white-ball captain, urging the team to make the transition “as soon as possible.” Hussain's comments come in the wake of Jos Buttler stepping down from the role following England's disappointing group-stage exit in the ICC Champions Trophy. Buttler, who succeeded Eoin Morgan in 2022, endured a tough stint as skipper, losing 22 of his 34 ODIs as permanent captain. England's struggle in white-ball cricket have been evident, with their early exit in the Champions Trophy following a group-stage elimination in the 2023 ODI World Cup and an unconvincing semi-final run in the 2024 T20 World Cup.
