Seasoned Rohit leads strongest Indian team since 2011 but Pakistan have narrowed gap, says Ravi Shastri

The Hindu  

A seasoned leader like Rohit Sharma understands the "terrain" of an Indo-Pak contest better than most but Babar Azam's unit won't be mere pushovers as it has managed to narrow the gap with the arch-rivals in the past few years, said former India head coach Ravi Shastri. Virat Kohli showed time and again how he lifts his game against Pakistan and Shastri feels that even if mentally tough guys go through a lean patch during the season, some of them find that competitive juice at the right time on biggest of stages. "And never go by form before an India-Pakistan game, because the tough-minded, mentally strong guys might not have done much six months back, but come the India-Pakistan game, they will come. Prises Babar Azam’s conversion rate in ODIs Shastri also praised Babar Azam's conversion rate in ODIs as the Pakistan skipper has an astounding 19 hundreds from 104 games.
