Babar Azam or Sanju Samson - Who is the better prospect?

Can't remember a T20I knock by Babar that was as impactful as Sanju's knock last night

Babar is a classical batter who is suited to Test and ODI.

Samson is a T20 hack who is suited to IPL and T20.

Who cares about T20 knock? Any lalloo can score like Samson in T20. Pat Cummins once scored 50 from 14 balls.

Test and ODI performances have more weights. :inti

I was specifically comparing in T20I cricket
 
Babar = All-format player.
Samson = T20 player.

Hard to compare, unless both play all formats.

:inti
This comparison is only about the T20 format, so let’s stick to that.lol
Has Babar played any innings Samson played in a T20 WC do-or-die match?
 
I desperately want india to back Washy as a #4 in tests.

Comeon PPers , make a washy vs babar azam thread.
 
This comparison was alright before they both started their international careers. But it is no longer relevant because Sanju is only active in one format. There are players preferred over him in the longer formats than T20 in India so Sanju hasn’t has too many chances there, so you can’t have a comparison. In the only format they both are active in, Sanju is the better T20 player than Babar. If Sanju builds a longer resume in other formats, then that comparison can be made.
 
So this odd comparison did exist in PP lol I don't think there is not a comparison that doesn't exist on PP
 
This is what happens when you are old and nearing your end. People forget your beastly prime and comparisons start being made with anyone who scored some runs last match.

Happened to Kohli, now it's happening with Bobzy. Just a sad cycle of life.

But it happened to Kohli after he was 35+. Babar is only 31, which is the prime years for most batsmen

Samson’s knock in that virtual knockout had more substance than decades of Bangladeshi highlight reels combined.
Might be safer to stick to posting food pics than cricket analysis.
 
Sanju samson played an amazing knock which zimbru can not even dream of playing in a knockout match.

Sanju samson genuinely seems like a nice guy only indian player and shivam Dubey seems nice as well they are the only likeable players in whole Indian team.


I m happy for him he is getting bit of hype due to this knock.

He is way better than feminine abhishek slogger and that ishan gunda kishan.

Bro, why are you abusing Ishan ? He's a decent lad. Sanju is a south indian, they are generally more docile. Dube is a calm guy, never shows any thing on his face

You guys seem to have a weird obsession with Abhishek.

As a personal policy, I always add 4-5 years to a Pakistani's claimed age. Babar looks my age, there's no way he is 31.
absolutely looks older than he is.. probably around 35 or 36.. It is same with Shaheen. He is closer to 29 and Naseem is probably around 27/28

Yeah I noticed this too ever since Asia Cup. Watching him smash their bowlers to all the parts while having a go at them verbally has clearly rattled our neighbours to no end.. 🤣

This reaction is all just helpless seethe as a result of that

He was the most searched Cricketer in Pakistan for the last year.

I think Pak India cricket match has become a joke..there is no cricketing needle..we will lose some days but mostly spank them...hardly a contest...their batting is abysmal...bowling is still ok in some conditions.

You remove Star sports from the equation, and this fixture will get as much attention as any other run of the mill group stage fixture against a mediocre side..say Zimbabwe.

Starting with that Moqa Moqa ad, Star has successfully manufactured a new age social media driven rivalry and more than a decade later...it still continues to milk it dry.
 
All India posters: Do not disrespect King Babar! He is an Icon.

See the light and let us stand in awe of his greatness as he rules over Pak cricket as a playing captain for the next decade, then as a coach, selector and PCB chairman.

In fact Pak constitution must be rewritten to make this happen.

I'm confident brother @Rana is on board with the plan. @gazza619 will pull the resources together. @RizwanT20Champ will keep the distractors in line.

Let the RizBarRauf-SSA Quad last forever!

I’d love to see him being a regular in his team for the next 10 years.​
 
Goes to say that sometimes #1 playing bilateral doesn’t mean much..
 
T20 ranking system has been flawed when a girl like Babar becomes rank 1
 
But when it comes to "cover drive" King Babar is still the King he is even better than Shardul Thakur who has a good cover drive as well
 
@Mobashir
Forget about comparing Babar with Kohli, who has won 2 WC MOTs awards and a MOM in a final. Babar can’t even match half of what Sanju has achieved, especially destroying all SENA teams and won MOT, something Babar can only dream of throughout his career.

Do you still believe Babar will beat Sanju in the next World Cup tournaments?
 
Samson = T20 guy.
Babar = All-format player.

Not the right comparison. :inti

Players should be compared when they play all formats.

Any lalloo can do well in T20. Pat Cummins once scored a T20 50 in 14 balls.
 
You again trimmed my post. :inti

Why not quote my entire post instead of taking things out of context? You are behaving like Indian fake news media. :inti
Because we are talking about the T20 format, unless jokers like you start bringing up the Test format while the T20 World Cup is happening.

Even in Tests, Babar has been disappointing.
