Babar Azam could not even open his account in the first Test against Bangladesh.
At present, the first Test match is being played between Pakistan and Bangladesh at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium in Rawalpindi. The third day of this first Test match has started. On the third day of the match, many Pakistani fans were seen supporting Babar Azam fiercely. Not only this, Pakistani fans also raised slogans for the experienced batsman.
All this was seen during the second session. The fans were shouting loudly, ‘How should our captain be like Babar Azam.’ Let us tell you, after the end of the ODI World Cup 2023, Babar Azam resigned from the captaincy from all formats of the game. After his resignation, Shan Masood was appointed the captain of the Pakistan Test team.
A video is going viral on social media in which it can be seen that the fans are shouting, ‘Our captain should be like Babar Azam.’
Here is the video:

Babar Azam got out for zero in the first test
Talking about the match, Babar Azam could not even open his account in the first Test against Bangladesh. He got out on zero in this match. Babar Azam’s wicket was taken by Shariful Islam. For some time now, Babar Azam has failed to show good performance in international cricket.
Pakistan declared their first innings of the first Test at 448 for 6. For the team, experienced wicketkeeper batsman Mohammad Rizwan played a valuable innings of 171* runs with the help of 11 fours and 3 sixes in 239 balls while Saud Shakeel contributed 141 runs. There was an important partnership of 240 runs for the fifth wicket between these two players.
Sam Ayub contributed 56 runs while Shaheen Afridi scored 29*. In response, Bangladesh has also batted well so far. By the end of the third day’s play, Bangladesh has scored 316 runs for the loss of 5 wickets in its first innings and is still trailing by 132 runs. Even though Babar Azam could not open his account in the first innings of the first Test, he will look to perform brilliantly in this series and would like to play an important role in his team’s victory.
