When asked about Australia’s potential edge against India, Hayden emphasised the significance of scoring runs, praising the batting prowess of Steve Smith, Virat Kohli, and Babar Azam, whom he considers modern-day greats.
Hayden praised these three batsmen, describing them as “exceptional talents in the game of cricket.” He referred to them as “once in a lifetime and once in a generation cricketers,” implying that their abilities and accomplishments distinguished them from their contemporaries.
Hayden also emphasised the importance of Marnus Labuschagne and Pat Cummins to Australia’s lineup. The development of Labuschagne as a solid batsman, as well as Cummins’ dual role as captain and a formidable fast bowler, strengthen the Australian team.

“It’s all about runs on the board in a big game.” Steve Smith is a true master. When you consider the modern-day greats, such as Smith, Kohli, and Babar Azam, these are once-in-a-lifetime or once-in-a-generation cricketers. Obviously, those two, along with Labuschagne, are incredibly important for Australia’s batting lineup. “And then there’s Pat Cummins, both as a captain and as a bowler,” Hayden remarked.

Smith, noted for his unconventional yet efficient batting technique, has long been a prominent player in Australia’s batting lineup. His ability to score runs consistently while dominating opposing bowlers has earned him a reputation as one of the best batsmen of his generation.
Kohli, the former Indian cricket captain, has been a dominant force in world cricket for more than a decade. Kohli, known for his aggressive and passionate style of play, is widely recognised as one of the best batsman in modern cricket.
Babar, the Pakistan cricket team’s captain, has climbed through the ranks to become one of the game’s most entertaining batsmen. His graceful strokeplay, perfect timing, and ability to play extended innings make him a joy to watch. Babar’s outstanding statistics and consistent performances have secured his spot as one of the world’s best batsmen.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
