Babar Azam (Pic Source x) Former player Basit Ali has recently raised questions on the International Cricket Council. He raised this question when Pakistan team’s best batsman Babar Azam retained the first position in the ICC ODI batting rankings. Basit Ali jokingly said that Babar Azam would be very happy that he has retained the first position in the latest ICC rankings. Basit Ali said this while sharing a video on his official YouTube channel. Basit Ali said, ‘When I saw the ICC ODI batting rankings, Babar Azam was at the top. Rohit Sharma was in second place and Shubman Gill was in third place. Virat Kohli was in fourth place. After this I did not see many names because Travis Head and Rachin Ravindra were not there. I think the ICC does not want to see Babar Azam performing well. Babar Azam will be very happy that he is the number 1 batsman in the ODI rankings. Who gives this ranking? In what way are Babar Azam and Shubman Gill in this list?’ What kind of ranking does ICC give: Basit Ali The former player further said, ‘Babar Azam played his last ODI in the World Cup last year. In that World Cup, we also saw Virat Kohli, Travis Head, Quinton de Kock and Rachin Ravindra. They scored three to four centuries in this tournament. Mohammad Rizwan and Fakhar Zaman scored centuries from Pakistan. Babar Azam did not score a single century. Babar Azam scored his last century against Nepal during the Asia Cup. What kind of ranking do they give? People in ICC are enemies of Babar Azam. If you ask Babar who should be in the first position right now, he will choose Travis Head or Virat Kohli. He will not even take his own name. There will be no Impact Player rule in IPL 2025..! Jay Shah gave a big statement Yuvraj Singh had a heart attack because of Sourav Ganguly…!

Ponting completed 4000 runs in his Test career in 61 Tests and 96 innings. Babar has played 52 Tests and 94 Test innings in his Test career so far, which means he has a great chance to overtake Australian legend Ricky Ponting. The fastest 4000 runs in Test cricket were scored by legendary batsman Don Bradman. Bradman achieved this feat in 31 Tests and just 48 innings. Whereas, India’s Virat Kohli completed 4000 runs in Tests in 52 Tests and 89 innings.

The World Cup is over now and we need to look ahead. I can guarantee that all our players want to win matches for Pakistan – Shan Masood Shan Masood (Photo Source: X/Twitter) As part of the ICC World Test Championship 2023-25 cycle, the Pakistan cricket team is going to play a two-match Test series against Bangladesh from August 21.

Let us tell you, after Pakistan’s poor performance in the T20 World Cup 2024, a senior journalist had accused Babar Azam of match fixing. All our players want to win matches for Pakistan- Shan Masood At the pre-series press conference before the start of the Test series against Bangladesh, a reporter asked Shan Masood, what message would he give to his team members after Arshad Nadeem’s historic gold medal at the Olympics? The reporter also said that making the country proud can reward the players more than earning from match fixing and any wrong things. Responding to this, Shan Masood said that he cannot question the intentions of anyone in the team because everyone wants to win matches for Pakistan. I cannot question anyone’s intentions just because you used the word match-fixing. I don’t think anyone can question their integrity in the current system of Pakistan cricket. This is something I don’t agree with at all. The World Cup is over now and we need to look ahead. I can guarantee that all our players want to win matches for Pakistan but wins and losses keep happening and whenever we lose, we feel the most pain.

‘Babur will take many years’ Basit Ali comparing Arshad Nadeem and Babar Azam
Recently Nadeem has won the gold medal in Paris Olympics. Babar Azam (Photo Source: X/Twitter) Former Pakistani cricketer Basit Ali has made a big statement while comparing Arshad Nadeem and Babar Azam, who recently won gold medals in javelin throw competition for Pakistan. Ali says that it may take many years for Babar to achieve the fame that Arshad has achieved. It is worth noting that in Paris Olympics 2024, Arshad won the gold medal by throwing the javelin with a record distance of 92.97 meters. Whereas India’s Neeraj Chopra had to settle for the silver medal with a distance of 89.45 meters. Arshad has become the first athlete for Pakistan to win any award and medal in track and field in Olympics after 28 years. Basit Ali gave a big statement Let us tell you that recently while comparing Arshad Nadeem and Babar Azam, Basit Ali said in an interview to Cricket Pakistan- Cricket is a different game, but the work that Arshad Nadeem has done for this country and the fame he has achieved, it will take many years for Babar Azam to achieve that because Babar plays a team game. He does not play any individual game, Arshad plays individually. He has won the gold medal alone. Basit further said- If the Pakistan cricket team goes to the Los Angeles Olympics in 2028 and wins the gold medal there, then we can compare. But at this time Babar cannot be compared to Arshad Nadeem. Arshad is the hero of Pakistan at this time. A look at Babar Azam’s cricket career It is worth noting that after the arrival of Babar Azam in the Pakistan cricket team, which is famous for its fast bowlers, the definition of batting has changed. Babar is often compared to some of the best batsmen in the world. If we give you information about Babar’s performance for Pakistan, the 29-year-old player has so far played 52 Tests, 117 ODIs and 123 T20 matches for Pakistan, in which he has scored 3898 Test, 5729 ODI and 4145 T20 runs.

“It is a matter of concern that….”- Statement of former legendary cricketer after losing the ODI series against Sri Lanka
Virat Kohli (Pic Source-X) After losing the ODI series against Sri Lanka 2-0, former Indian opener and current expert Wasim Jaffer has expressed concern. Jaffer’s concern is not about the fact that Team India lost the series but he has expressed his concern about the Indian team’s preparations before the Champions Trophy to be held in Pakistan next year. He says that playing only three ODIs before the Champions Trophy is a matter of concern for India. Actually, the Champions Trophy is to be held in February-March next year and after the Sri Lanka tour, India will have only three ODIs to prepare for this tournament, which they have to play against England in 2025. Wasim Jaffer wrote on X, ‘Sri Lanka played better cricket and deserves to win the series. I am not worried that India lost the series. Winning and losing is a part of the game. However, it is a matter of concern that India has only 3 ODIs left before the Champions Trophy.’ SL played better cricket and deserve the series win. It doesn’t worry me that India lost a series. Wins and losses are part of the game. However it’s a point of concern that India has just 3 ODIs before the Champions Trophy. #SLvIND — Wasim Jaffer (@WasimJaffer14) August 7, 2024 Let us tell you, after 1997, the Sri Lankan team has been successful in winning the ODI series against India.

He has expressed his opinion on this. Usman Khawaja told who is better between Virat Kohli and Babar Azam? Along with many legendary cricketers, Usman Khawaja was also asked who is the best player between Virat Kohli and Babar Azam. According to him, Babar Azam’s batting style is not like Virat Kohli. But there are some things in which Babar Azam is similar to Virat Kohli. Speaking on Fox Cricket’s YouTube channel, Khawaja said- “He doesn’t always bat like Virat. But when you watch him bat he looks like Virat” Babar Azam was a superflop in the ODI World Cup The ODI World Cup 2023 was held in India and in this mega tournament, Team India had to face defeat in the final against Australia. Pakistan team also came to India for this tournament. But playing under the leadership of Babar Azam, the team could not perform as expected. In this tournament, Pakistan could not even enter the semi-finals. After this match, Babar resigned from the captaincy. But he was once again given the captaincy of Pakistan for the T20 World Cup 2024. This time too he disappointed the fans and team of Pakistan and the team could not even enter the Super 8.

After this, he scored an important half-century in the final of the T20 World Cup 2024 tournament which played an important role in the team becoming the champion.

PCB is taking Test cricket lightly, former player expressed concern
Pakistan now has to play a two-match Test series against Bangladesh and after this the team will play a three-match Test series against England. Salman Butt. (Photo Source: YouTube) Former player Salman Butt believes that the Pakistan Cricket Board and other players are not giving as much priority to the Test format as they are giving to the other two formats. Let us tell you, Pakistan now has to play a two-match Test series against Bangladesh and after that the team will play a three-match Test series against England. Cricket Pakistani journalist questioned Salman Butt on the fact that the team has many spin options in the Test format who can perform well but despite that they are not being given a chance. On this, the former player has strongly criticized the other players and said that they are not playing matches regularly in domestic cricket and this is a very wrong thing. Salman Butt said, ‘Should we give priority to Test cricket? Why are we so worried about the combination all of a sudden? We just don’t want to play this format. Our players are not playing first class cricket consistently. Our cricket board is the only one in the world that is saying that we should play two T20 matches instead of one Test match.’ According to Salman Butt, present-day Pakistani players are not giving much importance to Test cricket and are more focused on white ball cricket. The former player also slammed the Pakistan Cricket Board over Babar Azam’s captaincy Salman Butt said about Babar Azam’s captaincy, ‘He is not a born leader. But the problem is what contribution have you made that has made things even easier? You included those two players in the team who criticized you fiercely on TV. After this the board changed its captain and then after two series you brought Babar Azam back to the role of captain. You yourself are dividing the team into different parts.’ Let us tell you, the performance of the Pakistan team was very poor in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 and it failed to make it to the Super 8. Babar Azam’s captaincy was also criticized by many people and he also batted very poorly. 5 Australian players who scored half-century in their debut IPL match IPL 2024: These 11 foreign players took crores of rupees but flopped IPL 2024: 5 players who hit the most sixes in the 19th and 20th overs of IPL 5 fastest bowlers in IPL history Who are the head coaches of all 10 teams in IPL 2024?
