Recently, in an exclusive conversation with India TV in a Live Instagram session, Shami came up with a savage reply when a fan asked him who between Kohli and Rohit is a better batsman. 

Both the batters are stalwarts when it comes to limited-overs cricket with the two dominating the runs chart over the last few years while also being instrumental in India's success in the two formats. And Shami stressed on that very point when a fan asked to compare between the two during the live chat. 

"Both have different batting numbers, have different batting styles, and both have a different approach towards the game. One is aggressive. The other is calm. If you even ask Virat, he will admit that he enjoys watching Rohit bat. And not just for Virat, that is the case for any other batsman in the world. But if you ask me, I wouldn't as they are at the top. I would only urge people to not ask such questions and try to create controversies," said Shami.
