India and Pakistan may not have faced one another on the field in a bilateral series since 2013, but this doesn’t mean players have stopped their relations as well.
Virat Kohli and Mohammad Amir have a very good relationship with one another and mutual respect. Kohli had even gifted his bat to Pakistan’s best bowler ahead of the marquee clash at the Eden Gardens during the T20 World Cup 2016.

With the entire world under the lockdown due to Coronavirus pandemic, cricketers everywhere are going live on social media having chats with friends and teammates. Mohammad Amir also went live with his friends and teammates on Instagram for a chat.
During one such chat, he was asked to pick the best batsman of this era. And the left-armer picked India captain Virat Kohli and mentioned that there was no match for him at the present. “My overall favorite is Saeed Anwar bhai but if you talk about this era then it is Virat Kohli. There is no match to him in this era,” Amir said.
