IND vs NZ official broadcaster comes up with remarkable Kohli vs Williamson comparison

Indian captain Virat Kohli and New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson are two of the leading cricketers in the world. The Kohli vs Williamson rivalry dates back to 2008 when the two players, who were leading their respective nations, locked horns with each other in the 2008 Under-19 World Cup Final which India had won. While Kohli is known for his aggressive nature and attacking mindset, Williamson is renowned for his calm and composed demeanour on the cricket field.

IND vs NZ: Journalist points out unique difference in Virat Kohli and Kane Wlliamson's batting styles

The two cricketers have had immense success with the bat, however, their techniques have been entirely different. Journalist Freddie Wilde, who is also a member of the IND vs NZ WTC Final 2021 official broadcasting team, recently completed Kohli and Williamson's batting techniques and pointed out the differences. Referring to their batting in the WTC Final 2021, Wilde pointed oy that Kohli stands out of his crease and plays the ball with firm hands whereas Williamson stays inside his crease and plays the ball with soft hands. However, Wilde added that both connect their bat with the ball under their eyes which he said was same but different

The journalist also opened up on their dismissals. He said that while Kohli attacks full lengths by whipping straight balls through the midwicket region, Williamson is more watchful and plays relatively straighter. According to Wilde, these different styles create a contrast in their dismissals.
