It was a pointless bilateral against Sri Lanka,

Why are you making it sound like it’s a world war 1 battle in the trenches?

LOL... Failures are justified against the same teams, but when he scores runs, you come running, making excuses??

Why fakhar could not do the same then?? Saim???

Fakhar and Saim are certified.

They have banged top sides in their own back yards. They are proper players. The world knows this.

Why are you trying to bring down Fakhar and Saim to make Babar look good?

That’s like trying to bring down Warner and Finch to make Labushange look good
 
Babar Azam is a proper batsman unlike the Shaibzadas , Usmans etc etc who are in hack category. Yes Babar has deficiencies he is not the best in the world but for Pakistan team he is an asset and thankfully the mgmt and those in power knew it

Naseem Shah is more of a proper Batsman than Rizwan too. 🤡
 
Look we can argue about bilaterals and phattas etc but it's always good to see a player score runs.

Hopefully he can get himself into good form for upcoming matches and score valuable runs for the country.
 
As long as player's performance is in winning cause or even if he is a lone warrior for his team, any sane person should not have a problem

And if a person still develops issue with certain players, then he is not sane in this case....

What a hard-fought century, hustling and fighting for every single run. That is the Babar we want to see. Hopefully, the king is back.

Hey @Rana and @mominsaigol Your apology must be louder than the disrespect. :bobs

King is on 20. Crazy number. 32 international hundreds. I think he has a realistic chance to get 35 ODI 100s and 55 overall hundreds before he retires but he needs to stay focused and not bother about outside noise.

Some trolls are claiming we said Babar is better than Viv. No one said that. He equalled Anwar for the Pak record in almost half the innings which is a magnificent feat.

Naah joker.

Babar has only scored against B sides of main teams hence his minnowesque record against India whose A team he always plays against in tournaments.
Click to expand...
Yes he smashed B team Bhumrah in 2017CTF and 2021WC match. Have some seats. He didn't rely on Afg to end century drought like Chokli
 
YousafTheBeast said:
Has he scored a century vs India?



2 of those centuries vs Australia where they were playing the likes of Jason Behrendorff, Nathan Ellis, Adam Zampa, Cameron Green, Travis Head, Sean Abbott, Marnus Labuschagne.

Have some shame.

Hypocrisy from you not to factor in that Bobzy doesn't get to play bilaterals like Saeed. Second in Saeed's time India had Kurvalla, Sunil Joshi and Venktesh Parsad bowling LOL!

Babar has an ICC trophy win with a performance in the final and is the only captain in history to win a WC match for Pak vs India.

I know it hurts you but by the time Babar is done he will have 35 ODI centuries and will unequivocally be our best batsman of all time.

You have to agree it was a good innings and more so after so many failures and with the big question of when he ll play like this again. It was special just like bobsy the king

It is an agenda. We big up mediocre hacks like Sharjeel who brought shame to the country but talk smack about a guy who scored 32 centuries for us,smashed India in a WC and won an ICC trophy against them.
 
"When I Met Babar — He Was Upset": Ramiz Raja

On Babar Azam's Frustration and Advice Given

* "I met Babar Azam two or three months ago, and we had a long meeting at a coffee shop. He was frustrated that he is misunderstood, and since he doesn't reply, it leads to more speculation. He felt it became very difficult for him to play with his mouth shut."

* "I gave him only one piece of advice then, which he has followed through on, and that is a very good thing: 'Let your bat do the talking.' It is essential that when you are playing, you play with a zip on your mouth."

* "These are young boys. The age of 20 to 30 is a growing age. They have a lot of experience on the field, but overall, to absorb so much and take this kind of 'bullishness' at times becomes very difficult."

On His Batting Style and Team Impact

* "The best thing about Babar Azam is that he has worked with a zip on his mouth. I believe he does not need power-hitting at all. Especially in Test cricket and One-Day cricket, he should not even think about doing anything else."

* "If he plays along the ground, plays with his normal routine, and stays for the full 50 overs, Pakistan will score over 300 every time. He is a technical batsman for difficult pitches."

On Facing Expectations and Pressure

* "When the thought gets into your mind—because people are saying, 'It's been a year, two years, two and a half years, he hasn't scored a century'—it creates a panic in your mind. To find clarity there, to put all these things aside, and to concentrate on the ball and meet expectations..."

* "You see the crowds cheering for him; he is carrying the expectations of millions. And when he doesn't perform, he falls down in the eyes of the fans according to the high bar he has set."

On His Class, Elegance, and Value

* "The way he has scored these centuries has refinement, class, and elegance. His defense is also pleasing to watch."

* "There are very few batsmen in world cricket today who are aesthetically pleasing—meaning they look good while playing, they play beautiful shots, and you enjoy watching them from a technical standpoint."

* "I'm sure many of Babar Azam's fans buy tickets just to watch him score. He is not only a great talent but also a 'medal' for Pakistan."

* "The way he plays, and the way he conducts his ambassadorial role—he has fulfilled that well, because you have to be very careful in public. There is no controversy, and just as straight as his bat comes, he conducts his business off the field too."

They’re in that relationship phase where the monkey is out the bag now, Babar can’t be the player he was meant to be, so we want to massage his fragile ego so he doesn’t get out performed by Shan Massod 🤡

Sachin scored that 100 100 when he was 39 years old and he had already won a world cup and his career was over.

At 31 (same age as Babar is now), Sachin was performing magic in every format.

This kind of brain dead examples is why most people (including Rizbar fans) think you are an indian troll. And I have to agree.

I agree with all of this except that Sachin was finished when he played in the 2011 WC, yeah he scored some runs but they were largely impact-less & the knock in the Semi was a farce as well and Pakistan are to blame for padding his numbers further with the silly dropped chances, he struggled quiet a bit as a batter. He did win the WC but I think others in the team helped carry him to that milestone.

"Most people" LOL. I have told all the head nodders here and challenged them where they all run away. Tendu was a great bat but also a statpadder and not a match winner. If that hurts your sensibilities maybe dont post on a Pakisani forum.

The irony of calling Tendulkar a stat padder.

If there is ever a stat padder in Pakistan, its the glorious Rizwan and Babar who even play T20 to statpad their averages!

They have had their issues but they have brought glory to the nation as well. Tendu was not a match winner. Only 20 out of his 51 centuries were in wins

I am not debating whether Tendulkar padded or not.

But Rizbar supporters should be the last one calling someone out on stat padding when they themselves do the same and get supported for it in droves !
 
Babar's best format is ODI... simple fact... He cannot be replaced there.. Yeah he can be rested to let some youngster get a game but dropped? Nayyy.. not in ODIs atleast.... Whatever you guys say, he has been scoring the bulk of team runs for years... In t20s and Test, the case is different.. I have not seen any real improvement in those formats...
 
Pakistan star batter fined for ICC Code of Conduct breach

Pakistan batting star Babar Azam has been found guilty of a breach during the third ODI against Sri Lanka.

Pakistan’s batting stalwart Babar Azam has been fined 10 percent of his match fee for a Level 1 ICC Code of Conduct breach.

The 31-year-old has been found to have breached Article 2.2 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which relates to “abuse of cricket equipment or clothing, ground equipment or fixtures and fittings during an International Match.”

In addition, a demerit point has been added to his disciplinary record, making it a first offence for Babar in a 24-month period.

The incident occurred in the 21st over of Pakistan’s innings when Babar hit the stumps with his bat before leaving the crease following his dismissal.

On-field umpires Alex Wharf and Rashid Riaz, third umpire Sharfuddoula Ibne Shahid and fourth umpire Faisal Afridi levelled the charge while Ali Naqvi of the Emirates ICC International Panel of Match Referees proposed the sanction.

The Pakistan batter admitted to the offence and accepted the sanction, negating the need for a formal hearing.

Level 1 breaches carry a minimum penalty of an official reprimand, a maximum penalty of 50 percent of a player’s match fee, and one or two demerit points.

Pakistan went on to clinch a series sweep over Sri Lanka with Babar playing a lead role with the bat, scoring 165 runs - most in the series - which included a record 20th ODI ton.

You are not the owner of this forum so stop staring who can post here.

We have cold hard stat of Sachin winning most matches where he scored.

The absolute dishonesty of you calling Sachin a stat padder while worshipping Rizbar who are a million times more stat padder tells everyone you are an indian troll from ICF. I just pity the people who are dumb enough not to realize this even today.

I would like to think even people who lust over folks on OnlyFans are less descriptive than Ramiz is here with Babar.
 
He took Fakhar's number 3 spot and got a duck while Fakhar made a great contribution at number 5. For me, For me, Pakistan should stick with Farhan, Saim and Fakhar as top 3 batters in T20s. Babar should play ODIs and Tests only for the national side.
 
Babar has jumped 1 spot to be placed at 6th in the ODI batter rankings.... That century helped him alot here..
