Babar Azam's batting statistics in major tournaments

[Mamoon]

He was bowling to ODI/Test batsmen playing with 120 balls to score runs.

Yeah, an ODI has 120 balls.

 

[PakEngFan]

Their captain is Brian Masaba. Watch out for him because he'll be bowling to Babar in the next series.

Great to know he will be trowing rockets at Babar unlike Imad who will be serving pies to his master in Babar.

 

[Rana]

Even against Uganda I recon Fakhar will try feeling the ball for a bit and then hit one straight up in the air.

My guy only wrecks big teams when the stakes are high

 

[Vikram1989]

But a 40 avg is ironically more then I expected from Bobby against quality bowlers.

After watching so many pak greats, I am not able to digest present pak team mentality or stats obsession with out caring for the results.it used to be indian style in 90s .it's ironic india came out of it but pak got dragged in to it.Even manjrekar mentioned it in his auto biography how imran made the team mentality as first thing in pak.

 

[PakEngFan]

His fans do bhangra because he scored 3 fifties in losing causes in Australia on pitches where Warner was scoring 150+ for fun and Australia had racked up 350+.

That is his career highlight. 3 fifties in losing causes on roads.

B
This is the irony in that same series Babar scored a rubbish century and his critics say he lost but when it comes to sharjeel they start defending him.

 

[Rana]

Yeah, an ODI has 120 balls.

Explain that to Babar and Rizwan. Stop playing ODI cricket as openers in T20 cricket. They could have taken him down in those two qualifiers and final with only two fielders outside. What was stopping them?

HuM oUt Ho gAyE tOu TeAm Ka KyA hOgA?

 

[PakEngFan]

Imad has an economy of 8.33 In the game but he realesed pressure so fair enough.

Did i not state this?

And you went on to say I hate Imad for something which we both agree on, so why bring something else?

 

[Rana]

I've never spent as much time on PP as the last couple of days. Gives me pleasure to see agenda driven people getting humiliated

Gives you pleasure seeing Pakistan humiliated too? That’s not an impartial cricket team.

This is ironic coming from an Indian fan. The whole world saw the great Kohli’s full desperation to break Tendulkar’s record in the World Cup and was denying singles and coercing other batsmen to help him get to the landmark.

I personally have no issues with batsmen chasing milestones. I think it is the right thing to do anyway. It is a matter of pride and achievement. Winning and losing is a team responsibility not an individual obligation.

Babar had the highest strike rate in PO overs in the league stage of PSL. I know that made you very upset but it is what it is.

I don’t like Rizwan and he won’t be opening anymore. It will be Saim and Babar.

 

[PakEngFan]

I've never spent as much time on PP as the last couple of days. Gives me pleasure to see agenda driven people getting humiliated

It's a great read going through the threads to see the humiliation they have received but they don't learn. The same posters were having fantasies about the conversation Babar had with PCB and their sources and then they were woken up with the news of Babar being made the captain.

What was Babar’s strike rate in the Karachi leg? How can you finish every game with an overall strike rate of 100-115?

 

[Mamoon]

I blame this on Babar Azam. He was always selfish to the core from day one.

I don’t blame you guys though. What does a generation of Pakistani fans who grew up celebrating the likes of Afridi as match-winning batsmen know about batting.

You guys deserve Asif Ali, Haris, Sharjeel, Umar Akmal and Haider Ali. Any batsman who can bat will never be your cup of tea.

To be considered selfless by such fans, batsmen should score 20 runs in 7 balls and then throw their wickets away like idiots to show that they are playing for the team and not their stats.

 

[Mamoon]

What was Babar’s strike rate in the Karachi leg? How can you finish every game with an overall strike rate of 100-115?

You can’t do it in every game. He is a human not a machine. If Imad could sleep his way through the entire PSL until the play-offs Babar is also allowed to failed every now and then.

No one can still say anything to him. His haters are just consuming in their own hate and impacting their own mental health with their never ending agenda.

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

What was Babar’s strike rate in the Karachi leg? How can you finish every game with an overall strike rate of 100-115?

What was your cricketer of the year Imad Wasim's batting average and economy outside Karachi, where even Malik looked as deadly as Murali?

 

[Vikram1989]

Winning and losing is a team responsibility not an individual obligation.

If any person is playing for the team,team has to come first.otherwise he can play different games like chess,boxing etc.I firmly believes team should be the first and personal records should be the secondary . I will hate anyone playing for individual records and commentators singling out other players but not their own players playing for personal milestones.

Tbf most of the batsmens mentioned there will struggle to score 20 off 7 balls. It's more close to a dot followed by a ugly swipe across the line for a 6 or a top edge six. Next ball dot and than out. In reality it's 6 off 4 balls most of the times.

 

[Rana]

You can’t do it in every game. He is a human not a machine. If Imad could sleep his way through the entire PSL until the play-offs Babar is also allowed to failed every now and then.

The way he played in Karachi is the way he plays generally in international cricket. Even Khawaja Nafay pumped runs at Lahore with a 170 strike rate. Shadab was going at around 160 in Pindi. Salman Agha had a strike rate of 140ish for most parts of the tournament and he was batting at 3. Saud Shakeel was going at 160ish and a couple of failures brought him down to 140ish

Scoring at 160 as an opener in the PSL is a cakewalk. That’s why I keep saying that if we ever see a player like DeQock, Fin Allen or Warner or Travis Head play PSL…they will hit 50s in 16-18 balls on our tracks and the bowlers in PSL.

If you insist on opening, why can’t you for once give that kind of output?

 

[Rana]

No one can still say anything to him. His haters are just consuming in their own hate and impacting their own mental health with their never ending agenda.

Everyone can. Everyone is. Why are their threads about Babar’s strike rates in world tournaments? If they can’t say anything?

 

[Rana]

What was your cricketer of the year Imad Wasim's batting average and economy outside Karachi, where even Malik looked as deadly as Murali?

Well, he came good at the end. 4 motm performances in a row to lift the PSL. He’s done the talking and walking. No point trying to devalue his efforts now that he did what he had to win the PSL for his franchise

 

[Rana]

Babar Azam is the kind of guy that if you order a Turkish mix grill platter, he will put all the nice chops, kebob and the ribs in his plate and let the rest of his mates have the chicken wings and chicken cutlets.

 

[YousafTheBeast]

There’s people out there that don’t rate Sharjeel Khan but will call Imam ul Haq the next Saeed Anwar.

I’m just glad that I’m not as deluded as some of these posters.

 

[Rana]

In the World Cup 2023,

Sharjeel would have hit a double hundred on those tracks. I firmly believe it. Most likely would have failed 5-6 games. But one game against anyone, he would hit a 180+ score. He is that kind of a player.

 

[topspin]

This is ironic coming from an Indian fan. The whole world saw the great Kohli’s full desperation to break Tendulkar’s record in the World Cup and was denying singles and coercing other batsmen to help him get to the landmark.

This is interesting. I remember how you used to gang up with Indians on the green tinted hype brigade here. A notable example being Bilal7.

What made you change sides?

 

[mominsaigol]

I want you to be consistent with your logic. It's got nothing to do with Usman. I didn't say I agree with you logic or your views on how to rate players and neither do I want to be rating some of the players you rate.

Answer the question instead of starting another topic. Why should fakhar be given another chance at opening?

He is your only Match winner, plain and simple, his X factor innings are more then enough irrespective of whatever format they were in.

I'd rather have a player who plays for Pakistan and the crest on his chest and watch him fail 30x but perform once with a blistering match winning innings

Over

2 losers who even when performing make us fail amd play for themselves.

I remember one game( Forgot which one) but after agha salman got run out, Babar kept giving strike to tail enders and they kept getting out.

Now in contrast look what maxwell did? When maxwell and Cummings came out to bat, Maxwell was at 25 and Cummings at 7.

But the end of the innings maxwell was at 201 and Cummings at 12.

This is what you call a team player. He advised Cummings to just tuk tuk at the other end and survive, rest he'll manage.

Edit: Just saying even if maxwell didn't win the game, I'd still cite this. Its about teamwork

Maxwell on one leg is a better white ball batsman than everyone in Pakistan, it’s 220m population

I’m just glad that I’m not as deluded as some of these posters.

Imam is better than Sharjeel in two out of three formats. He is going to retire with more runs, caps and centuries than Sharjeel in international cricket and this fact is going to make a lot of people cry.

I would give it to Sharjeel though. He was better than Masood.

Speaking of being deluded, no one was more deluded than the Sharjeel fans who thought he was going to take the world by storm after returning from his ban.

Two or three (can’t even remember) seasons of PSL after his return and he was a busted flush, and T20 is supposed to be his best format.

He’s a better ODI bowler than Imad too who averages 45

I'm aware.

Every top side has 3 to 4 batsmen better then babar and more consistent.

Australia

1) Warner, Travis, Marsh, Maxwell

NZ

2) Conway, Rachin, Williamson, Darly Mitchell

India

3) Rohit, Kohli, Gill, Sheryas

SA

4) Quinton, Makram, Klaseen

Eng

5) Idk, their all woefully out of form

Afg

6) Maybe, I'm not biased like others, afghani batsmen were facing a joke opposition against us, while Bobby had to deal with goat spinners.

Rizwan wants to be Babar. Have you seen the movie “the talented mr Ripley”? That should explain Rizwan’s obsession with Babar

 

[CerebralPatriot]

Nothing surprising about these stats. Babar is a nothing player and he will continue to be a nothing player.

Honestly I'm happy that he was reappointed as captain. Looking throughout social media it appears that people have begun to realise what a despicable character he truely is and with the exception of his cult fan base, everyone is sick and tired of him

Inshallah this T20 world cup exposes him further and maybe in a year or two we can finally throw him into the dustbin of history

Everyone loves sarfi bro. Him winning ct 2017 was narratively the best moment for Pakistan surpassing 1992.

The Narrative of Pakistan being ranked no 8 and considered a joke team, and getting humiliated by their rival nation in the first match, only to come back strong and beat every team in the tournament and give India an even more humiliating defeat by a greater run margin will always be talked about in future generations.

It's a cold hard fact.

Babar is one of the most popular Pakistani cricketers ever. Sarfraz never managed to scale those heights in spite of captaining Pakistan to a CT win.

His pathetic individual skills were the blocker. You have to command respect as a player before people respect you for your captaincy.

Also, his captaincy stint ended very badly after the CT glory. 2018-19 was shocking for Pakistan in Tests and ODIs.

Sarfraz needs to spend the rest of his years thinking about how he could let everything fall off so abruptly after being on top of the world in 2017

I would rate the 2017 champions trophy as Pakistan's second greatest moment behind Chagai-1

From almost not qualifying for the tournament, to being ranked number 8 going in and than being destroyed in our opening game, we were able to pull off the comeback of the century.

Once a week I watch the tournament highlights and it always amazes me how Saifi was able to take a team filled with inexperienced rookies and transformed it into probably the best ODI side we ever had.

If Babar was captaining the same side I could guarantee that currently we wouldn't even be participating in this years world T20 and would probably have lost our test status by now

Fact is Misbah was adamant on making sure Sarfraz was thrown into the dustbin of history however a house kitten cannot compete with a lion. Sarfraz with all the odds against him was able to carve out a position in the team, he was able to become captain without anyone lobbying for him and he was able to do something that Misbah could never do.

Fans are fans. How they react in the heat of the moment while attending matches in the stadium doesn’t reflect the general public sentiment.

India has a lot of ignorant and uneducated fans too. They were criticizing the Pakistan captain because of hatred; they were not criticizing Babar the batsman.

intelligent Indian fans respect Babar because he is a quality batsman and very Indian like in his batting approach and technique.

Babar is the most memed about cricketer not just in India but the world. Go on any social media and Babar Azam's name is synonymous with one thing that being a stat padding impact-less tuk tuk

Sarfraz gained respect from Indians after seeing their side get destroyed by his men in the 2017 CT final.

He did but then he lost it in 2018 and 2019.

Don't forget the humiliation we suffered under Sarfraz in the 2019 World Cup. West Indies out of all the teams made a mockery of us by chasing in 13 overs in a one day game. That was the downfall of Sarfraz

We suffered humiliation in one match.

The West Indies game was abysmal. I was there. Losing to India and Australia was sad too.

Beating England at Nottingham, was probably Pakistan’s greatest win in World Cup group games. One hell of a win. And beating New Zealand too. So it wasn’t as bad as you are making it out.

2019 campaign is disappointing, but it isn't a bad campaign.

The campaign involved beating the strongest team of the tournament and posting a very high total against them, it also involved beating the runner ups. SA was thrashed, and Afghanistan was also beaten after a tough fight. The west Indies drama was a mess I agree.

2023 campaign was ridiculous. We lost 5 games to teams and some of those teams were minnows or teams that got humiliated by minnows. 2023 England is a shadow of its former self, their so weak in 2023 that its hilarious but they humiliated us. Afghanistan turned us into a bloody joke and just chill pilled steam rolled their way through.

2023 also had us turn into memes, with crowd booing us, with those cake videos causing resentment ampung Pakistani community.

Only saving grace of 2023 is that fakhar saved us against NZ, we got lucky, Nz was riddled with injuries, bowling the joke bowler sodhi and fakhar's batting get us over the line, Fakhar inclusion was even more embrassing for Babar as he kept him out and didn't play his star batsmen, instead play a dude who has only played 7 List A games instead?

Ok let's rewrite history and imagine things as we see fit because you don't like one player.

Misbah's support for Sarfraz is on record and even termed him as the 'oxygen of the team'

Actions speak louder than words and Misbah's actions where nothing short of being criminal.

He had constantly overlooked Saifi and his performances whether it be in tests or ODIs and would go for the medicore option 9 times out of 10.

Unfortunately for Misbah, Sarfraz was just too good a player to keep out and the more he played, the more Misbah looked like a fool

I do agree however that Sarfraz was the oxygen of team just as Misbah was the carbon dioxide, something which needed to be kicked out

Here’s how it’s going to go.

Since yesterday, Babar has condemned himself to infinite laanat.

Every day, every passing hour will be a reminder of that laanat he has incurred for backstabbing a guy who stood by him.

I haven’t let people forget the betrayal of Pakistan with the fraud Rizwan being shoved down our throats

I will not let people forget this cursed person Babar Azam too.

Get used to it. This is the new normal here.

But I prefer to engage in proper discourse with intelligent people, not people who should be in an asylum right now.

I can’t get used to this. I think all sane and intelligent posters should take a break from this place before this zombie breakout is contained.

Fans are fans. How they react in the heat of the moment while attending matches in the stadium doesn’t reflect the general public sentiment.

India has a lot of ignorant and uneducated fans too. They were criticizing the Pakistan captain because of hatred; they were not criticizing Babar the batsman.

intelligent Indian fans respect Babar because he is a quality batsman and very Indian like in his batting approach and technique.

^^ This comment alone (other then your nonstop abusive comments) should outright expose your nonsense intellect.

You are honestly telling me you represent Indian public sentiment, India views us as a joke, I have tons of Indian friends in Australia who's families live in India, they all view babar as a joke. India public is not you nor are you their representation.

You're claiming EVERYONE IN AHMEDABAD who attended is ignorant and uneducated hence they attacked babar? You're telling me not a single intelligent, educated individual attended that match? Or are you claiming that an intelligent individual would be stupid enough to get caught up in the heat of the moment?

Looney toon comment, outright exposes your hypocrisy and shows how bad at argumentation you really are.

The more popular you are, the more you are trolled. That is social media age for you.

I rarely see any Australian players being trolled by Indians, why? Because they understand the difference between quality and rubbish just as they understand the Babar Azam is nothing more than just a stat padding match loser

Indians were trembling in their boots in the final against Australia.

The media was Cautious the day before, because they wanted South Africa to qualify.

India knew they were a superior team but Australia is the one team that can knock them out.

Indians have more respect for Australian cricketers and vice versa then they even will for Babar or even Amir for that matters and this is coming from an Amir fan.
