Former West Indies batsman Shivnarine Chanderpaul has recently revealed the name of the best batsman in the world and he is none other than India captain Virat Kohli. In fact, he said that being the best batsman in the world, he is also his favourite player too.

Chanderpaul was in India some times ago for the Road Safety World Series 2020, but the series was postponed due to the coronavirus outbreak. The series was included several renowned players from yesteryears as well which included Sachin Tendulkar, Brian Lara, Irfan Pathan, Yuvraj Singh, Brett Lee and many more.

While speaking to Sportstar, Chanderpaul told, "Obviously, it's Virat Kohli. He has been working on all the aspects of his game, and the results are showing. He is working hard on his fitness; he works on his skills. You see him putting in the hard work, and he is one of those guys who always wants to do well. He's proven it, day in and day out. You have to give credit to him for that. It's not easy to stay at the top of your game for so long. You got to put in your work, and the results are showing,"

Due to pandemic covid19, all the cricketing events have been postponed but it is expected that T20 World Cup which is scheduled to take place in October-November in Australia will be played at that time and he hoped West Indies will do well. But he also said that in T20 format anyone can win so it will depend on the game only.

"With the power hitters, good bowlers they play a major part in the shorter format. So, we still have one of the best T20 squads around. But we still have to go out and play well to win matches. Don't take anyone lightly, play as hard as we can, and we will win," Chanderpaul further added.
