Babar Azam: Pakistan captain Babar Azam is often a victim of criticism and the main reason for this is his performance. Babar has not been successful in any major tournament so far and questions are always raised about his strike rate in T20 cricket.
Now a player from his own country has insulted him and said that Babar is not worthy of getting a place in the team of Nepal, let alone Pakistan.
Azam's performance in the recently concluded ICC T20 World Cup 2024 was disappointing, he failed in both batting and captaincy. Under Babar's captaincy, the team could not progress beyond the group stage and had to be eliminated in the first round itself.
Since then, Azam is being trolled a lot.If we look at the performance of the right-handed batsman in the T20 World Cup, he disappointed everyone and did not perform as expected. In this World Cup, Babar Azam played a total of 4 matches, in which he could score only 122 runs and under his captaincy the team could not even qualify for the Super-8 and that is why he is being trolled.
Former Pakistan captain Shoaib Malik has insulted Babar a lot and said that he will not even be selected in the Nepal team. He said that “Babar is not fit to play international cricket and even the Nepal team will not select him. Who is our best player at the moment, it is Babar Azam.
If we see him in the top-5 teams of the world, can he fit in? If we look at Australia, India, England, can Babar fit in the playing eleven of these teams? The answer is no.”

Let us tell you that after the poor performance in the ICC World Cup 2023, Babar was removed from the captaincy and the captaincy of the T20 format was given to fast bowler Shaheen Afridi. However, just before the T20 World Cup, Azam was once again made the captain but he could not live up to the expectations.
