[PICTURES] Babar Azam v2.0: Performance Watch

Concerned said:
Babar the batsmen is fine when chasing a target below 150.

The issue is when there is a total above 160 - he is unable to accelerate.

Do you know how many times Babar has chased 160 totals? Before commenting don't you think you need a little research to do?

You can’t discard Farhan especially how he performed in pressure games vs India . He has to be backed for Wt20. Saim is a lottery

No way Farhan should get any game at the world t20.

Teams will play their full strength sides and he will be a total dud against half decent bowling.

He has absolutely no shots apart from closing his eyes and slogging towards the leg side. Apart from that he just plays dots. No offside game and no other shot.


This tukka shot has worked a couple of times but mostly he has only failed and batted at pathetic strike rate and low average. No good team is going to give him room and let him score.
 
A very limited player for me. Pakistan has witnessed better batsmen with far superior technique.

He will not make the 11 for Top 4 teams now. So, calling him KING looked comical from past 3-4 years. But he is a better player than most Pakistan batsmen and should easily walk-into the ODIs and tests. T20s should strictly depend on the pitch. He is not someone who find the gaps regularly nor hits lifted shots, so doesn't fit into T20s on flat surfaces. His only utility is when Pakistan bowls well and restricts the opposition. That tells you his utility in the team. But sadly, Pakistan doesn't have much options.

What really surprised me is his red ball performances. He has gone so bad. His peak is very low and now if we call his form as a Low, then he is strictly mediocre. He needs to have a legendary breakthrough averaging 60+ to be even considered as a potential great in Tests
 
I do think he's a good test batsman. Might even end up being a better test batsman than Kohli (seeing the comparisons between the both so much) but that's more the mark of how much Kohli has declined rather than how babar has improved.

But he's too passive and reactive as a batsman. Seems to second guess always and is always relatively easy to set fields to.

Won’t end up better than Kohli.

Kohli averaged 55 before declining and still has 30 100s at an average of 46.9.

Babar’s peak was 49 that too aided by flat pitches where he was outbatted by Khawaja, Brook etc.

Now that Pakistan has embarked on this dustbowl strategy his average will come down further.

Mind end up worse than Rahane/Shafiq etc.
 
Babar Azam has scored 58.03% of his T20I runs against SENA countries.....

ZIMBU ZIMBU ??? LOL

Nope, people who have something to share, share them, instead of vague posting like a teen on Facebook and then asking others to search for it

The onus is always on the person who claims something to demonstrate that claim.

This doesn’t tell us anything because it doesn’t differentiate his runs against first string attacks and those scored against depleted ones against the top 5 sides (Aus, SA, Eng, NZ and Ind).

Also why are we not showing his strike rate? Which you could argue is just as important (if not more) in the shortest format. Getting scared are we?
 
What a century by the one and only, Bobzie the king.

Magnificent innings. His stroke play, his foot work were all top notch today.

KING IS BACK. BOBZIE THE KING

P.s. Supported by Prince Rizwan

Don’t call it a comeback
He’s been here for years!
Babar’s cover-drives
Still bring bowlers to tears.

Been quiet for a while,
But now the King’s back swinging,
Three long years later
And the bat keeps singing!

They said he lost touch,
They said the form was gone,
But he walked out calm
Like “I’ll show you how it's done.”

Straight drives glowing,
Late cuts flowing,
Scoreboard moving
Cause the King’s still growing.

Don’t call it a comeback
Call it a reminder:
Form is temporary,
But class? That’s kinder.

Century on the board
And the crowd’s gone wild,
Babar back in beast mode
Never stopped being poster child.

So write it in the headlines,
Put it loud and clear:
“The King didn’t return…
He just shifted the gear!”

:ba
 
Comeback for what? The players he was once compared to have all gone on to achieve far greater things. This 100 after 2 years is actually sad and a reminder how the standards of Babar have fallen so much. He should have been breaking far bigger records.

Agree a 100 and that too with so much tuk tuk vs trundlers.
 
Not out of the Woods yet but some encouraging signs. Babar is the most loved player of his generation and his revival would help to ease the pain of the country being a terrible state. Let's hope he kicks on and its not just a spike

Scored 754 runs in one series in England which included 4 100. In just one series. Reminder that Babar has 1 SENA 100 in his entire career.

There is no bigger arena to demonstrate a batsmans skills than test cricket.

Forget about England series, gill 91 at Gabba is bigger than whole Babar legacy in test cricket lol

:kp
 
In all seriousness, credit to him for playing a good innings. Hopefully for Pakistan he can return to form now, because he has completely wasted what should have been the prime years of his career.

Correction!

Please read 'the' before 'poster child'.
