Babar Azam is going through a bad phase in his career.

Babar Azam is currently going through a bad phase of his cricket career. He disappointed the team a lot in T20 World Cup 2024. Pakistan team under the captaincy of Babar Azam had to accept defeat from a weak team like America in this tournament. Babar’s bat remained calm throughout the T20 World Cup.

After this, Babar’s poor performance was also seen in the recent Test series with Bangladesh at home. Not a single half-century was seen from Babar’s bat in this series. After this Babar was continuously trolled.
