Five batsmen who can join the 'Big 4' in ODIs

#3 Babar Azam

Babar Azam has been compared to Virat Kohli recently

A right-handed top order batsman who is known for his discipline, Babar Azam has carried Pakistan’s batting over the last couple of years.

Babar scored his first ODI ton in his 16th innings. But what followed in the next 15 innings was simply sensational. By the 25th innings, he had 5 tons to his name and since scoring that first ODI hundred, Azam has been dismissed for single-digits only once. In his 31-match ODI career thus far, he is averaging 53.89 with a healthy strike-rate of 88.56.

In the last two years, Pakistan’s batting has revolved around Azam. Pakistan coach Mickey Arthur even went on to say that Babar is as good as Virat Kohli. The Pakistan No. 3 is just 22 years old and can be his side's batting mainstay for quite some time.
