Kyle Mayers Rates Babar Azam Over Virat Kohli Higher In 'This' Aspect

West Indies cricketer Kyle Mayers was asked about his preferences between a Babar Azam and Virat Kohli cover drive. On ESPNCricinfo's 'You Have To Answer', Mayers picked Babar's cover drive over Virat, while admitting that it is quite a tough choice to make.

Moreover, the West Indian was also made to choose one of Harry Brook and Shubman Gill. Mayers picked the latter, who is seen as the most talented youngster at present and is currently featuring in the Asia Cup 2023, where he scored a 67-run knock versus Nepal.

On the other hand, Brook has been dropped from England's World Cup squad to accommodate Ben Stokes, who reversed his ODI retirement in August.

He again was put in the hot seat and lastly, he was asked about Jos Buttler and Suryakumar Yadav's scoops. Mayers made his preference clear as he selected Surya ahead of Buttler in this aspect.

While Suryakumar is undoubtedly the numero uno T20I batter going around right now, Buttler too is a tremendous white-ball player, known for his 360-degree stroke play.


Mayers' CPL 2023 form

Playing for the Barbados Royals in the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) 2023, Mayers is not in the best of form, having scored just 73 runs in six innings at an average of 12.17.
