Pakistani batter clarified on his statement, told Virat the best
New Delhi. Pakistan’s batsman Khurram Manzoor, who described himself as better than Virat Kohli, has gone back on his word. He has said that I did not mean to say this. My point was put in the wrong way. After being ridiculed, Khurram said in a post on social media, Virat Kohli is a generational player and I have always admired him as the best. I talked about the statistics of List A cricket. Where I am on top per hundred ratio and Kohli is second. There is no comparison between me and him. He has played more matches and that too mostly at international level. My point was twisted and presented.
Actually, Khurram had said on a YouTube channel that I compare myself with Virat Kohli. I am at number one among the top 10 batsmen in the world in ODIs. Virat’s name comes after me. He scores a century in his sixth innings. I score a hundred every 5.68 innings. Khurram, who has played 16 Tests, 7 ODIs and 3 T20 matches for Pakistan, has blamed the media for his statement.
Desperate for not getting a place in the national team
Khurram Manzoor, 36, has scored a lot of runs in domestic cricket. Despite this, he could not get continuous opportunities in the Pakistan team. Disappointed with this, Khurram had said, Pakistan Cricket Board has ignored me. It’s frustrating. I have scored 24 centuries in the last 48 innings.

I am still the leading run scorer compared to anyone who has opened for Pakistan since 2015. Apart from being the top scorer in National T20, I have also scored a century, but still I am neglected. Khurram last played for Pakistan in the 2016 Asia Cup. Since then he did not get a place in the national team. Khurram has 12 thousand first class runs and about 8 thousand runs in List A.
