Nasser Hussain’s 2024 Cricket Prediction: Virat Kohli and Babar Azam

Former England captain Nasser Hussain shared his picks for cricketers poised for a significant 2024 in a video by the International Cricket Council (ICC). Hussain highlighted Indian superstar Virat Kohli and former Pakistan skipper Babar Azam as the ones set for a remarkable year ahead.

Praise for Virat Kohli’s Form in 2023
Hussain commended Virat Kohli’s exceptional performances in 2023, emphasizing the technical brilliance he displayed during his innings, particularly the Mumbai match against Sri Lanka. Kohli’s overall records for the year across Tests, ODIs, and all international matches illustrated his consistency and prowess at the crease.

Babar Azam’s Crucial Year Ahead
Regarding Babar Azam, Hussain stressed the significance of the upcoming year for the ex-skipper and Pakistan cricket. With the ICC T20 World Cup scheduled in the West Indies and the USA in June, Hussain highlighted the importance of Babar’s role in Pakistan’s batting lineup. Hussain noted that relinquishing the captaincy might alleviate pressure, emphasizing that Pakistan needs Babar to contribute with substantial runs to bolster their performance.

Statistics from 2023:

• Virat Kohli: Scored a total of 2,048 runs across all international formats at an average of 66.06, including eight centuries and 10 fifties.
• Babar Azam: Accumulated 1,399 runs in 35 matches across formats at an average of 39.97, with three centuries and 10 fifties to his credit.

Nasser Hussain’s insight foretells an exciting year for both Virat Kohli and Babar Azam, setting the stage for their anticipated cricketing performances in 2024.
