Former Pakistan captain hailed Virat Kohli

New Delhi, Feb 08: Former Pakistan captain and maverick batsman of the 80s Javed Miandad has hailed India skipper Virat Kohli as a "genius who is the best batsman in the world".

In Virat Kohli's case his batting method is what allows him to score runs not just once but almost every time he comes in to bat," he said

On Wednesday, Kohli scored his 34th ODI century - an unbeaten 160 - to set up India's 124-run win over South Africa in Cape Town, which has left the No 1 ranked ODI team up 3-0 in the six-match series.

To me, the mark of a great batsman, like Kohli is the fact that he can vary his technique by quickly understanding the strengths and weaknesses of the bowlers. Kohli is a genius who is the best batsman in the world," Miandad said.
