Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], August 31 : Pakistan skipper Babar Azam was elated at being praised by India star Virat Kohli and detailed the mutual respect that exists between them, saying that praise from someone like Virat gives him confidence. Kohli had conveyed his admiration and recalled his first meeting with Pakistan's star batter Babar Azam in an interaction with Star Sports last year."I saw a lot of regard and respect from him from day one, and that has not changed. Regardless of the fact he's probably the top batsman in the world across formats, performing so consistently and rightly so. He has amazing talent and I have always enjoyed watching him play," said Virat as quoted by ICC. "So that [Babar’s attitude] has not changed because he is performing now, and he is coming into his own. I do not see his attitude or approach changing towards me," he added. Babar reacted to Virat’s comments recently on Star Sports, and discussed Virat’s influence on his game."It feels really good. When someone talks about you like this. And what Kohli has said, has made me very proud and happy," he said. "Such praise gives you confidence. When I met him in 2019, he was at his peak. He is still at his peak. I wanted to take something from his game. I learnt a lot from him. He gave a detailed explanation to all my questions. That helped me. When you do such things for each other, it feels really good," he added. Both batters have excelled in the ODI format over the years.

He has 19 ODI hundreds, the second most for Pakistan in the format.Virat, on the other hand, has 12,898 runs at an average of 57.32.
