Cheteshwar Pujara, the Indian batsman, named former Pakistan player Younis Khan as the one who plays spin better than him. He said this in a video with ESPNcricinfo where he had to pick a player who is a better spin player than himself and it wasn’t easy for him.
First he tossed out a few names and when Joe Root’s name came up he said Maybe. When asked about Virat Kohli, Pujara said, I would say par, his numbers show he can play it well.

He also mentioned Steve Smith and Kane Williamson but didn’t shift his view. He said, They’ve both scored runs against India which is impressive but it’s tough to compare when it comes to spin.
