Worcestershire, July 3: Talented batsman Babar Azam has insisted he doesn't want to be compared with Indian skipper Virat Kohli but instead with legendary Pakistan batsmen like Javed Miandad and Inzamam-ul-Haq.

"I don't want to be compared with Virat Kohli. It would be better if people compare me with one of the Pakistani legends like Javed Miandad, Mohammad Yousaf or Younis Khan," cricket.pakistan.com.pk quoted Babar as saying in a teleconference on Thursday.
