‘Inke ex cricketers mai sb muh se hugte hein’ – Fans tear apart Wahab Riaz as he calls Inzamam-ul-Haq better than Rahul Dravid
Rahul Dravid and Inzamam-ul-Haq are one of the greatest batters of their era. They played for India and Pakistan respectively for almost the same era. The Pakistani great made his international debut in 1991 and played his last in 2007. On the other hand, the now head coach of India started playing for India in 1996 and played his last in 2012. Notably, both led their national sides for a considerable time.
Talking about ODI cricket, Haq is ahead of Dravid in terms of runs but behind the latter in terms of tons. The 1992 World Cup winner amassed 11739 runs while Rahul scored 10889 runs. Talking about hundreds, the former Pakistan skipper has 10 tons while Dravid has 12. In Test matches, Dravid is far ahead in terms of runs and centuries. In the longest format of the game, Dravid has 13288 runs while Inzamam has 8830 runs.
Talking about centuries, Haq has 25 to his name while Rahul has 36. Meanwhile, former Pakistan pacer Wahab Riaz gave an interview. In this interview, he was asked about who is a better batter between Dravid and Inzamam.
Inzamam-ul-Haq is better than Rahul Dravid: Wahab Riaz
The left-arm pacer said that Haq is a better batter than Dravid. He reasoned that 52-year-old did well across all formats of the game. Wahab added that Haq had a lot of time to play the pacers and was far better than Dravid.
“Inzy bhai. Inzy bhai performed exceptionally in all formats. He had a lot of time to play his shots against pacers. Inzy bhai is far ahead from Rahul Dravid,” said Wahab during an interview with CricBridge.
This is how Twitter reacted
But could he run, keep, open, sacrifice his batting spot when asked to, in the larger interest of the team? Better players always bring in that 'extra' to the team. Again, taking nothing away from the loved legend Inzi is.

Other than comparing one player with another, some ex-players have no work…
