Former Pakistani player has now made a huge claim about Babar Azam's recent performances, calling him " Mentally unfit". This has sparked a new debate among the fans.
Not long ago, Babar was considered among the top batsmen around the world and was a part of the Fab Five. With his recent performances, fans are raising questions.
Former Pakistan player, Basit Ali, has claimed that Babar is mentally unfit because he is not able to overcome his bad phase. He believes that to overcome a bad phase, you need to lie low, work harder and make your critics eat humble pie over time. Lie low is not necessary, but working harder is important. Looking at his batting in the last couple of years, he has failed to work harder, He said.
Despite his recent struggles and poor performances, he holds a massive record in the T20i. He once dominated world cricket and was among the leading run scorers in the T20's.
Some critics believe Babar should have stepped away from T20i. Instead, he kept playing despite strike-rate criticism and growing pressure.
By the looks of things at present, it doesn't look like he will stage a grand comeback. He will keep getting opportunities due to a lack of options in Pakistan cricket, but there is no guarantee that he will flourish again as a batsman. He, as well as the Pakistan cricket system, is to blame. You really feel for Babar. Nowadays, he looks as if he has been bullied in no small proportions. What an epic waste of talent, He concluded.
