"I will bowl him at 150 kph," Shoaib Akhtar reveals how he will dismiss Virat Kohli

Akhtar also praised Indian batting maestro Sachin tendulkar.

Former Pakistan pacer Shoaib Akhtar is known for speaking his mind on camera and recently talked about his strategy behind getting the Indian skipper Virat Kohli’s wicket in an Instagram live session.

Virat Kohli has done really well at the international level. While talking about getting Kohli out, Akhtar said, “If I was bowling, I would go wider of the crease and pitch the ball up [to Kohli] and shape it away from him in order to make him drive. If that does not work, I will bowl him at 150 [kph] and he will get out.”

The fast bowler then praised Indian batting maestro Sachin Tendulkar, as he called him the greatest all-time batter.

“I had a good time bowling to Sachin Tendulkar. He is one of the greatest batsmen of all-time but I dismissed him 12-13 times as well. Although, Indians only remember that one six which he hit me in Centurion [during the 2003 ICC World Cup] as it makes them really happy,” the Rawalpindi express said.

“If I had known that one six makes 1.3 billion people happy, then I would have let him hit me for a six every day,” he added.

Akhtar represented Pakistan in 46 Tests, 163 ODIs and 15 T20Is in which he picked 148, 247 and 19 wickets respectively.
